“Even though I am extremely flattered to be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I don’t feel that I have earned that right,” the singer-songwriter wrote in a statement posted to social media. “I really do not want the votes split because of me, so I must respectfully bow out.” Parton continued, “I do hope that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame will understand and be willing to consider me again — if I’m ever worthy. This has, however, inspired me to put out a hopefully great rock ‘n’ roll album at some point in the future, which I have always wanted to do! My husband is a total rock ‘n’ roll freak, and has always encouraged me to do one.”alongside Beck, Duran Duran, Eminem, Lionel Richie, Carly Simon and A Tribe Called Quest.
Warwick, who was a guest on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” on Sunday, said of her nomination, “I’m not a rock ‘n’ roller… The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as I grew to know it… was specifically for rock ‘n’ roll acts.” Warwick continued, “I feel now, especially when I hear Dolly Parton’s being nominated — which I’m thrilled for her about — they should rename the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and call it the Music Hall of Fame. Now that they’re bringing so many other genres into it, why not?”, and she recently teamed up with James Patterson to write her first novel, “Run, Rose, Run.”
