Dolly Parton is a national treasure. Can she host the Emmy Awards next year?
Parton and her "9 to 5" co-stars held a reunion during the 2017 Emmys. Parton presented Alexander Skarsgard with his award, alongside Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, who were also nominated for their Netflix series "Grace and Frankie."
After a huge ovation from the crowd, Parton said, "I have been waiting to a '9 to 5' reunion since we did the movie." Her co-stars got more political, comparing their "9 to 5" co-star Dabney Coleman's character to President Donald Trump.
Fonda: "In 1980, we refused to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss."
Tomlin: "And in 2017 we still refuse to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss."
Parton kept things light, and really got fans talking with a joke about her boobs, and this ending quip:
"I'm just here to have a good time tonight ... I'm just hoping that I'm going to get one of those 'Grace and Frankie' vibrators in my swag bag tonight."
Watch the clip:
Fans couldn't get enough:
Dolly Parton just asked for a Grace and Frankie vibrator on live TV. Take me home, Lord. My work here is done.
