Tina Knowles Claims Viral Dolly Parton Clapback Is Fake Amid Beyonce CMAs Debate

Lately, the Country Music Awards has had Beyonce‘s fans outraged, as her album Cowboy Carter wasn’t nominated for a single award. This resulted in countless supporters insisting it was a snub and even prompted a response from Dolly Parton during an interview with Variety earlier this week.”Well, you never know. There’s so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can’t really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that,” she said.

“I don’t think it was a matter of shutting out, like doing that on purpose. I think it was just more of what the country charts and the country artists were doing, that do that all the time, not just a specialty album,” Parton also added. This prompted even more outrage, and recently, a screenshot of what was said to be Beyonce’s mother Tina Knowles’ response surfaced online.

Tina Knowles Clears Things Up

“Oh Ms. Dolly,” she seemingly said in part. “We love you, but Bey did spend her WHOLE life workin’ hard, since she was 9! She got country roots too. She’s mastered her craft and broken records in EVERY genre. So sayin’ she didn’t ‘spend her life’ in country music dismisses all that work she put in.” Now, however, Knowles has taken to The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section to clear things up.

According to her, she’s not actually behind the message that’s going viral. “This is fake not from me!” she wrote simply. Some fans still have their doubts. It looks like they’ll just have to wait to see if she ever actually addresses the debacle.
