Will Dolly Parton appear in Beyonce's new album?

It remains unclear whether Parton will appear in Beyonce's upcoming album.

"We've kind of sent messages back and forth through the years. And she and her mother were like fans, and I was always touched that they were fans, and I always thought she was great,” Parton previously said of Beyonce.

In February, Beyonce surprised her fans after she dropped the singles '16 Carriages' and 'Texas Hold 'Em' during the Super Bowl.

The 32-time Grammy winner initially revealed that 'Act 2: Cowboy Carter' is a follow-up of 'Renaissance' and it would be a three-part project, according to Variety.

While 'Renaissance' explored club and dance music, 'Cowboy Carter' is expected to delve into the realm of country.

“But, because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of Country music and studied our rich musical archive," Beyonce added.

"It feels good to see how music can unite so many people around the world, while also amplifying the voices of some of the people who have dedicated so much of their lives educating on our musical history," she added.
