“We’re little, we’re blonde and we love each other.” That’s how Sabrina Carpenter captioned her 2025 collaboration with Dolly Parton , who joined her for a remix of “Please Please Please.” After the song had topped the Billboard Hot 100 in its original form, the team-up version hit the top 20 on the Hot Country Songs chart. Not every Parton collaboration was with other little and blonde people (most weren’t, actually), but the love that other musicians had for her is obvious, given the wide scope of artists with whom she recorded and enjoyed chart hits over more than half a century. Related Fearless, Fabulous Dolly Parton and What We Can All Learn From Her: A Remembrance Parton’s musical catalog reflects that spirit of togetherness and her far-reaching appeal. She first made Billboard ’s charts when “Dumb Blonde” entered Hot Country Songs, at No. 64, in the Jan. 21, 1967, issue. That December, she charted her first duet, when “The Last Thing on My Mind,” with Porter Wagoner, debuted. It went on to become her first top 10, rising to No. 7 in February 1968. Parton’s most recent new charted recording, and the last release during her lifetime, is also a team-up, as “Son of Jolene,” with Belles, became a country sales chart hit in May. Over that nearly 60-year span, Parton appeared on rankings with more than 60 collaborators. Below, and following the icon’s Aug. 25 death , Billboard recounts 25 of her most notable charted musical partnerships, via titles that range from country and bluegrass to dance, R&B/hip-hop , rock and more. Said Parton in 2020 , when she was continuing to scale Billboard charts with other acts, “I’m touched and honored that I’m able to still be important in the business.”
