Pop sensation Miley Cyrus recently reminisced about the heartwarming fax messages she received from her godmother, Dolly Parton, who prefers this classic mode of communication. In an interview with People magazine, Cyrus shared her deep affection for Parton and recounted a memorable Mother’s Day message that read, “How much do I love you? As much as my heart can hold and as far as my arms can reach.”
Cyrus expressed how deeply moved she was by Parton’s words, highlighting the special bond they share. Along with the touching messages, Parton once surprised Cyrus with a unique Christmas gift—a mannequin dressed in Parton’s iconic outfit, as reported by People magazine.
Parton’s fondness for using a fax machine instead of digital communication has intrigued many. She explained in an interview that she prefers faxes because she feels surrounded by enough people already. She humorously added that even the late Kenny Rogers teased her about it, prompting her to joke that she would use carrier pigeons if necessary.
Reba McEntire, another country music icon, confirmed this quirky communication method, stating, “You don’t call Dolly, you fax her.” Parton’s commitment to fax communication has become a charming and endearing part of her persona, adding to her legendary status in the entertainment industry.
