Maddie & Tae just celebrated their first #1 song of their career, and they say if they could sit down and have a conversation with any celebrity, living or dead, they would love to talk to a couple of strong, successful women. Tae says, “I wanna sit down with Marilyn Monroe cause I love her.”
She also feels like the iconic bombshell in some ways represents the point they were making in “Girl in a Country.” Tae says, “Back then, she was beautiful and perfect and now days she’d be considered a Plus Size model, which is ridiculous. She’s gorgeous and she’s smart and intelligent. So I love her.”
If given the chance, Maddie would love to sit down and talk with Dolly Parton, “and just see how she has been so poised throughout her whole entire career, but still like a strong, take no prisoners, very strong independent woman. I would love to get some advice from her.”

Maddie – “Yes. I really wanna sit down with Dolly Parton and just see how she has been so poised throughout her whole entire career, but still like a strong, take no prisoners, very strong independent woman. I would love to get some advice from her.”
