Joy Béhar says the original song “Jolene” is actually bad for women – something Reba McEntire think it’s pretty hilarious…this on the heels of Beyoncethe cover.
We had the country legend Thursday in Los Angeles, and Reba actually spoke about Bey’s foray into the genre with her new album “Cowboy Carte” — regarding Beyoncé diving into country, RME says that She completely agrees.
Reba tells us that Beyoncé is a welcome addition to the lineup and that everyone in the game is happy to have her. You can tell Reba is a fan… which is huge, because Reba is an icon.
Of course, plenty of comparisons have also been made, especially since Bey covered classic songs including Dolly Parton“Jolene” from…something JB weighed in on this week. If you haven’t heard, Joy had a strong opinion on the OG track and Bey’s interpretation of it.

Like Joy said…she preferred Bey’s version, because she feels like Dolly’s song is “anti-feminist” – and we also got Reba’s take on that in this interview here.
Check out how Reba reacted to this suggestion…it’s so “bless her heart.”
