Dolly-Parton

Eastwick star Rebecca Romijn said singer Dolly Parton was “so honoured” when she told her she would name one of her twins after her.

Rebecca, 36, and husband Jerry O’Connell welcomed daughters Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip nine months ago.

Rebecca said she met the legendary singer while pregnant. She said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show: “When I was six months pregnant, I saw her perform. Right before her show I sat with her and she asked me what I was thinking of naming my daughters.

“I said, ‘I’m thinking about Dolly for one of them’… I was a little bit embarrassed to say it.”

However Rebecca revealed what happened next reassured her that she should name one of the babies after the Islands In The Stream star.

She said: “Dolly said, ‘Oh, I would be so honoured. Dolly was the name I was given, it’s not short for anything, and I don’t have any children of my own. I would be so honored. Please do it’!

“Then at the show, she dedicated [the song] Little Sparrow to ‘her new friend Rebecca and her little girls’. And I was like a puddle. A puddle!”

Beyonce is featured on the cover of Billboard magazine and was named ‘Woman of the Year’. The singer’s father and manager, Matthew Knowles, talked to the magazine about what the future holds for his daughter, to which he replied “I can’t predict. But I hope she will be enjoying the fruits of her labor with a continuing mix of music, film, corporate projects; helping others as she does now; and moving into other endeavors like maybe painting. Most people don’t know this, but she’s a really good painter. Family is also important to her. I see her having a long-lasting career but hopefully not working as hard as she is now.”

She’s way more famous than I’ll ever be outside of South America, Latin America. So it wasn’t just that I wanted my girlfriend. It was that she’s perfect for this. She’s got the right energy and I knew that she could put it across. It was great.”
