Dolly Parton donned a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader-inspired outfit for her halftime performance amid the Cowboys’ 45-10 victory over the Washington Commanders in an NFL Thanksgiving Day game on Thursday.

“Well, hello, Texas! Dolly turns Dallas. You like my outfit?” the country music star asked the cheering crowd at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington at the start of the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Kickoff Halftime Show.

“Hey, Cowboys and Commanders, stop fighting long enough to sing along with me,” the music icon added before launching into her 1973 hit “Jolene.” 

The Cowboys cheerleaders came out for Parton’s iconic “9 to 5” and her covers of Queen’s “We Are the Champions” and “We Will Rock You.”
