Dolly Parton Star Vandalized; New Hollywood Sign to Replace Defaced One

Earlier this week vandals scratched the Hollywood sign, leaving Dolly Parton’s name badly defaced. City officials confirmed the damage and announced plans to install a new sign in the same location. The replacement will be unveiled once the new lettering is fabricated and installed, ensuring the iconic tribute remains visible to visitors and residents. The incident underscores the need for ongoing security and maintenance of the landmark, while the city’s prompt response demonstrates its commitment to preserving cultural symbols.
