Joy Behar sparked a lively debate on “The View” by questioning the beloved country song “Jolene” by Dolly Parton, suggesting it may have anti-feminist undertones. Behar praised Beyoncé’s rendition, “Cowboy Carter,” for offering a different perspective, where Beyoncé presents a warning rather than pleading. She argues that Parton’s version exhibits insecurity and possessiveness, undermining women’s empowerment. While some, including country star Reba McEntire, laughed off Behar’s comment, Behar continues to stand by her belief, applauding Beyoncé’s version for its empowering message. Interestingly, Dolly Parton herself appreciates Beyoncé’s take on the song, adding complexity to the debate. Joy Behar’s stance stirred strong emotions and ongoing discussion.
