Bono surprised Dolly Parton by sending a bagpiper to play for her on her 80th birthday. Watch footage of the moment below.
The country icon celebrated reaching the milestone age yesterday (Monday January 19), with her home state Tennessee declaring it ‘Dolly Parton Day’.
Later, Parton shared a video of herself being serenaded by Nashville-based Irish musician Patrick D’Arcy – who hails from Dublin. He performed the tune of ‘Happy Birthday’ on the bagpipes as the legendary artist was presented with a cake.
The cake featured the message “Love… Bono” in iced lettering, as well as some candles. “Wow, this is from Bono!” Parton said, before blowing out the candles. “I did it!”
She continued, telling D’Arcy: “Well, thank you. I saw that cake said, ‘From Bono’, so he must have sent you as a present to me? Well, thank you guys. I appreciate all of you.”
He replied: “It’s an absolute delight to be here on behalf of the whole band.”
Parton added: “And Bono, I know him personally. Well, good to see you. And thank you. That’s a surprise.” She then joked: “Are you calling me an old bag?”
In the caption, the singer wrote: “Now that’s what you call a surprise! This old bag sure feels the love!
