You know, I really hate it when companies pay off people to support their products. People who have absolutely no idea bout the product or market the product is used in. Such people like Dolly Parton and companies like Microsoft get along well together. It’s the people who are technologically retarded that often become the poster children of “dumb celebrities”. Dumb not only because they are like a sheep being led by a wolf, but for carelessly and blindly accepting monetary “donations” for speaking high praise of subjects they have absolutely no idea about.
I bring you Dolly Parton and the IE8 love duo…

Please dig into the story just a little more. Her web team built a nice IE8 web slice that leverages Silverlight. She was not paid for this video. More details: http://blogs.msdn.com/jonbox/archive/2009/11/12/dolly-parton-talks-ie8-web-slices-and-microsoft.aspx
