Dolly Parton's last performance with Miley Cyrus resurfaces after death

Dolly Parton’s admirers are giving fans an emotional reminder of the special bond the country music icon shared with Miley Cyrus.

Following the Jolene hitmaker’s death on August, 25, her final live performance with her goddaughter has resurfaced.

The duo’s last live performance together took place on December 31, 2022, when they co-hosted NBC’s Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party in Miami.

Among the night’s highlights was their powerful mashup of Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball and Parton’s iconic I Will Always Love You, along with performances of Jolene and I Love Rock ’n’ Roll.

The emotional duet has since begun circulating again online, with fans reflecting on what would become their final shared performance onstage.

For the unversed, Parton died at the age of 80 after a brief battle with cancer.

Among other celebrities, Cyrus, 33, also paid tribute to Parton, describing her as “Aunt Dolly” and revealing that some of their most meaningful moments were private.

“I will always love her and want to make her proud,” the Hannah Montana star wrote, adding that one of their last conversations was about “music and metamorphosis.”

As fans revisit their final performance together, the moment stands as a touching snapshot of the enduring relationship between two generations of music icons.
