Country superstar Dolly Parton brought all her charm and glamour to Sydney for her Australian tour.

But the consummate performer divulged a little habit that she picked up from her "Joyful Noise" co-star, Queen Latifah-busting out a rhyme. The blond bombshell wants to show the world her rapping skills.

"I do a little thing on stage and I do it different every night. Queen Latifah, she's the queen of hip hop, rap and movie screen. Yeah she's the queen of her own hood but I'm the queen of Dollywood. She may be the rap queen but I'm the white trash princess," the 65-year-old spat out a rhyme reported news.com.au; though it must be said that even while rapping, she still maintained her country twang.

The singer also kept up her effervescent wit along with her signature big hair and even bigger boobs; joking that the latter was actually just an illusion and nothing but a "wall of paper" as she plucked a thank you note from between her cleavage. The ever gracious Parton thanked Anthony Albanese as the

Federal Transport Minister was partly responsible for making her Australia tour smoother, quite literally. Albanese made unique conciliation for Parton's tour bus (a vehicle previously deemed too wide for Australian roads) after month-long negotiations between the two parties. Albanese was previously reported as saying that while each country had distinct rules and rules were there for a reason, Parton's tour would be good for the country, economically speaking.

The Better Day World Tour boasts of 2 ½ of pure entertainment from the country music queen herself with no support acts. Parton will first perform at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Saturday and will continue on to tour all over Sydney, the Hunter Valley, Melbourne and finally, Brisbane.
