Dolly Parton recently made headlines with a playful video where she trolled actor Ryan Reynolds to promote the docuseries 'Welcome to Wrexham.' The video, posted on YouTube, showcased Parton's witty humor and charm as she interacted with Reynolds and actor Rob McElhenney.
In the video, Parton received a gift from the fictional 'Welsh Board of Tourism and Docudramas,' which turned out to be a red scarf with Wrexham A.F.C.'s insignia. She humorously realized she had been tricked after reading a plug for the show and jokingly questioned Reynolds and McElhenney about their identities.
'Welcome to Wrexham' follows the journey of Wrexham A.F.C. and its owners, Reynolds and McElhenney, as they aim to elevate the team from lower-level football leagues to more competitive ones. The docuseries recently concluded its Season 3 finale, with the team achieving promotion to League One, bringing them closer to the English Premier League.
The series, which debuted in 2022, has garnered critical acclaim, winning five Emmys. In the latest clip, McElhenney and Reynolds shared a montage from the show with Parton to prove its authenticity, eliciting a nostalgic response from the country music legend.
Despite the heartwarming montage, Parton humorously declined Reynolds' request for her to sing the theme song, showcasing her quick wit and playful banter. The video highlighted the fun dynamic between the trio and added to the buzz surrounding 'Welcome to Wrexham.'
