When asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” children often give imaginative and endearing responses. While their aspirations may still be forming, there’s no stopping them from dreaming big. For two-year-old Violet, her dreams revolve around music—and one star in particular: the legendary Dolly Parton. This tiny toddler not only adores Dolly’s music but also loves to mimic her on camera.
Violet’s family, including her dad, Ryan, a local musician, had no idea how much her talent would shine until her aunt shared a video of Violet singing one of Dolly’s iconic songs online. The clip quickly gained attention, and soon, the family received an unexpected call from Ellen DeGeneres, inviting them to appear on her show.
