With a music career spanning decades, Dolly Parton cemented her legacy in the music industry a long time ago, but that does not mean that she's done.

According to recent reports, the "Jolene" singer was just honored with three new Guinness World Records, which brings her titles to a total of seven.

She was honored with the most studio albums released by a female country singer; with 65 projects, which includes her iconic releases "Here You Come Again" in 1977, "Heartbreaker" in 1978, and "Jolene" in 1974.

Her next title is for being a female artist with the most top 10 entries in the Top Country Albums Chart and lastly for holding the record of having the longest span of No. 1 songs on the Top Country Album chart.

Guinness World Record Holder

Even the people at the Guinness World Record are in awe of the 77-year-old music legend.

"Celebrating the longevity and success of Dolly Parton's remarkable career with three more Guinness World Records titles was incredible. Dolly isn't just a legend ... she is officially amazing!" said Michael Empric.

"I am humbled every time I receive a new Guinness World Records title," Parton said. "I share these three new honors with my fans, who have allowed me to enjoy such a long career."

Here is the complete list of the "9 to 5" singer's Guinness World Record titles.

The new honor comes a little over a year from the last time she was bestowed with a title, which was back in December 2021.

Despite her achievements, Parton stays humble and thanked her collaborators for working with her in her countless hits, as well as her fans for their unwavering support.

"This is the kind of stuff that really makes you very humble and very grateful for everything that's happened," the singer said.

"I am flattered and honored. I've had a lot of people help me get here. Thanks to all of you and all of them for helping me have all of this."
