‘She’s Dolly and I’m Dale’: See Pitbull pose with country icon after their collab
Pitbull and Dolly Parton?
Sí! Yes!
This is the collaboration we never saw coming and didn’t think we needed, but most definitely do.
Mr. 305 recently teamed up with the country icon for “Powerful Women,” an ode to not just the single mom who raised him in Little Havana, but to all the other worker bees out there slogging it out until Medicare age (or in this case, when their kids hit it big.)
The catchy mash-up features a sample from Parton’s 1980 hit, the soundtrack of the movie of the same name in which she co-starred about three secretaries who get revenge on their boss from hell.
“All my powerful women working nine to five,” the Miami superstar, 43, raps in the new song. “Two, three jobs just to survive. All my powerful women, no man at home, raisin’ all the kids alone. All my powerful women, y’all deserve a throne. Keep your head up and stay strong ... Never give up.”
P and P had the chance to reconnect again in Nashville Thursday during a stop on his Trilogy tour. He later shared a snap of the two unlikely pals all smiles on social media.
That night, Pit informed the crowd in Raleigh, N.C., about their encounter and joked how the 78-year-old national treasure has something in common with his signature catchphrase.
“Clearly,” he joked, “she’s Dolly, and I’m Dale.”
The Trilogy tour, with Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin, hits Florida this weekend, starting at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise on Friday night, and Amelie Arena in Tampa Sunday night.
