Joy Behar Calls Dolly Parton’s Jolene Anti-Feminist And Fans Come Unglued

It seems like these days, people are ready to debate just about anything, and there are certainly no shortage of opinions. One place where these debates often happen is on the show The View, where the hosts discuss some of the most interesting topics.

Recently, one of the members of The View, Joy Behar, started a lively debate by calling into question the beloved country music song, “Jolene” by Dolly Parton, suggesting that it may have anti-feminist undertones.

Behar even went as far as to say that the more recent version of “Jolene” by Beyoncé was superior. This comment has sparked a heated discussion that continues to capture people’s attention.

Joy Behar is known for speaking her mind, and she made sure to express her preference for Beyoncé’s rendition of “Jolene” to the show’s producer. According to Behar, Dolly Parton’s version of the song exhibits insecurity and possessiveness, particularly because Parton is pleading with the mistress not to steal her man.

Behar argues that this sentiment is antifeminist, as it implies that women should be concerned about their men being unfaithful due to the allure of another woman. She believes that it undermines the empowerment of women.

On the other hand, Beyoncé’s version of “Jolene,” titled “Cowboy Carter,” offers a different perspective. Rather than pleading with the other person in the song, Beyoncé presents a warning, advising them to stay away from her relationship.

Naturally, many people had opinions on the subject, including country music star Reba McEntire. When asked about Joy Behar’s comment, McEntire simply laughed and praised Beyoncé for her contributions to country music.

Behar continues to stand by her belief that Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” is anti-feminist, while applauding Beyoncé’s rendition for its empowering message. According to Behar, Beyoncé’s version portrays a confident woman who is willing to confront the challenges in her relationship head-on.

Interestingly, Dolly Parton herself seems to appreciate Beyoncé’s take on the song, adding another layer to this ongoing debate.

This is certainly a debate that will continue as long as people are willing to discuss it. Joy Behar certainly stirred up some strong emotions, and not everyone is happy about it.
