Dolly Does Want Your Business

"I am truly sorry for the hurt or embarrassment regarding the gay and lesbian t-shirt incident at Dollywood's Splash Country recently. Everyone knows of my personal support of the gay and lesbian community. Dollywood is a family park and all families are welcome. I am looking further into the incident and hope and believe it was more policy than insensitivity. I am very sorry it happened at all." - Dolly Parton, expressing regret that a lesbian Dollywood patron was asked to cover up a tshirt which said, "Marriage is so gay."
