This godparent-godchild duo came to be after country crooner Billy Ray Cyrus first recorded his hit “Achy, Breaky Heart” in the early 1990s. In the process, he got to know the legendary Parton, and eventually made her his daughter's godmother. Since then, Parton has dubbed herself Miley Cyrus’s “fairy godmother”. The two have even performed Parton’s hit “Jolene” together. “I'm just real proud of her. She does not need my advice, but she's often asking for information and advice, and I tell her what I know, but I think the girl's doing all right without me,” Parton said of her goddaughter, in a 2012 CBS interview.
