Ariana Grande's London Concert Features Tribute to Dolly Parton
Ariana Grande paid a heartfelt tribute to the late Dolly Parton during her London stop on the Eternal Sunshine Tour.
Before taking the stage at the O2 arena, concertgoers were shown a video of the legendary country singer performing her classic hit "I Will Always Love You." This memorial clip served as a moment for fans to remember the iconic artist, who passed away at the age of 80, before the main performance commenced.
The tribute was not part of Grande's setlist but was presented as a special pre-show event. After the video concluded and the arena's opening sequence ended, Grande emerged to begin her concert.
"I Will Always Love You," originally written and recorded by Parton in 1974, achieved global fame through Whitney Houston's rendition for the 1992 film The Bodyguard. In the days following Parton's passing, the music industry has been actively celebrating her unique legacy and the songs that cemented her status as a beloved figure in country music.
Grande's London tribute comes as part of her ongoing residency at the O2, a significant tour that marks her first major one since 2019. Following the tour's conclusion on September 1, Grande has announced plans to take a public hiatus. A statement from earlier this month indicated that she will be stepping back from public visibility after the Eternal Sunshine Tour, citing the continuous public scrutiny she has faced. The statement also expressed her enjoyment of the tour and her gratitude to her fans.
The video of the tribute can be viewed below.
