Singer Elle King is under fire for her performance at a tribute concert celebrating Dolly Parton s 78th birthday on Friday night.

In multiple videos of the event posted on social media, King, whose real name is Tanner Elle Schneider and is the daughter of actor-comedian Rob Schneider, described herself as fucking hammered and repeatedly swore and forgot the lyrics to Partons song, Marry Me.

Im not even gonna fucking lie. Yall bought tickets for this shit? King said at one point. You aint getting your money back.

Parton was not present at the concert, which took place at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. The event featured other performers, including Ashley Monroe, Tigirlily Gold, Dailey & Vincent and Terri Clark.

On X, formerly Twitter, an attendee expressed their distaste with Kings performance, writing : Elle King ruined the night with her horrible, drunk, and profane performance. Dolly Parton wouldve been mortified.

In response to the post, the Grand Ole Opry said that we deeply regret and apologize for the language that was used during last nights second Opry performance.
