In her appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman on Wednesday to promote the opening of her Broadway musical, the Grammy Award-winning singer Dolly Parton shared her bad experience in New York City back then.
It was in the year 1968 when the singer and her colleague lodged in one of the cheapest hotels of the city, "That's where all the prostitutes run and they ran in pairs for safety and we looked like we might be them. I still had the big hair, looking trashy like I do."
As they were approaching Times Square, an aggressive man suddenly propositioned asking them to come with him, but the singer strongly replied, "We were just country girls and our daddies had given us both a gun when we left homeā¦ I said, 'Look, if you touch me one more time, I'm gonna shoot you.'"
Parton later exclaimed that such horrible experience was the reason why "I didn't come back here for years and years."
