Their duets were a hit and she performed with his group on the Grand Ole Opry; she also sold and toured records. In 1970, when her hit song "Joshua" hit the top spot, her popularity was just too big to compete with the fame of his. In 1974, she was by herself and recorded duets alongside his.

Dolly was awarded many Country Music Association awards (1968-1971 1971, 1975-1976, 1975-1976). The diminutive (5'0") beauty was a natural for television at the time, and by the middle of the 1970s she was often appearing on TV specials and talk shows before getting her own, Dolly (1976). Dolly was awarded her first Grammy award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance in 1977 for "Here You Come Again". Dolly made her debut in a film in 9 to 5, 1980. She received nominations for an Oscar for the title track and also for Grammy Awards 2/3: Best Country Song and Best Female Country Vocal Performance.

Dolly Parton Enterprises is her media empire that is worth $100 million. In 1986, she established Dollywood, a Tennessee theme park in Pigeon Forge. This was to commemorate her Smoky Mountain upbringing. She was a character in Dolly, the Dolly (1987) TV show.
