Dolly Parton has received an honorary doctorate of humane and musical letters from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. The star got a standing ovation from fellow graduands, and, asked to give her advice to the crowd, told them: "What has worked for me, may not work for you. I mean, what has worked for me? Wigs, tight clothes, push-up bras, high heel shoes... five inch high heel shoes. All I've got to say is, take my advice and some of you boys out there may find yourself on a little different career path".
