Miley Cyrus wants to play country singer Dolly Parton on big screen
Pop star Miley Cyrus has reportedly been begging her godmother, country singer Dolly Parton to let her play her in a movie about Parton's life.
The 21-year-old Wrecking Ball hitmaker is concerned the lead role in the highly-anticipated biopic on Parton will go to actress Scarlett Johansson and is doing everything she can to convince the 9 to 5 singer she is the right person to play her in a movie about her life, reported Daily Mirror.
"Miley is bugging Dolly for the role. But Dolly refuses to play favourites, even though Miley has been bombarding her with audition tapes," a source said. "This movie is her legacy, and she told Miley she doesn't have the acting chops to pull it off," it added.
