Watch Dolly Parton and Mötley Crüe's New ‘Home Sweet Home' Video
'For an icon like Dolly Parton to sing on a song that has not only meant so much to us but to all the fans through the years, is a career high that means a lot to us,' Mötley Crüe said in a statement. 'We couldn't be happier to celebrate the 40th anniversary of 'Home Sweet Home' in this special way, and we're excited to share this version of the song with all the Dolly and Mötley fans around the world.'

They also released a new 'Home Sweet Home' video that mixes with new footage of Parton in the studio with vintage clips of the Crüe, and information about homeless youth and Covenant House.
A portion of the proceeds from the song will benefit Covenant House, an organization that aides young people experiencing homelessness. 'That we were able to unite with Dolly to raise awareness for homeless youth and the amazing work of Covenant House, which provides them safe housing and care, makes it even more special,' the band said. 'We hope you'll enjoy 'Home Sweet Home' featuring Dolly Parton as much as Dolly and we enjoyed creating it.'
This is far from the first time Dolly Parton has teamed up with rock icons. Her 2023 LP Rockstar featured collaborations with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Sting, Steve Perry, Steven Tyler, Stevie Nicks, Peter Frampton, Joan Jett, Rob Halford, and Simon Le Bon. 'It was an honor and a joy working in the studio on Mötley Crüe's 40th Anniversary re-release of 'Home Sweet Home,'' she said in a statement. 'I was so pleased that they would ask me to sing on such a classic.'
Mötley Crüe, meanwhile, have been off the road since October 2024 as Vince Neil recovers from a vocal procedure. It forced them to cancel many shows, and delay their Vegas residency. 'I'm truly sorry,' Neil said in a statement at the time. 'My health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can't wait to return to the stage. Thank you for all the well wishes that keep reaching me. Your support means more than you know.'
They have ten shows booked at the Park MGM in Vegas between September 12 and October 3. They then head to Riviera Maya, Mexico, on November 7 to play the Rock the Tides Festival on a bill that also includes Def Leppard, Bret Michaels, Extreme, and Living Colour.

‘Wizard of Oz' blown up by AI for giant Sphere screen
The massive Las Vegas venue known as Sphere will be screening its first classic movie, 'The Wizard of Oz,' starting on August 28. And as detailed in a segment on CBS Sunday Morning, this isn't just a matter of taking the existing movie and projecting it on Sphere's 160,000 square foot, wraparound LED screen. Instead, Sphere Entertainment CEO James Dolan said a 2,000-person team is creating a new experience. That includes using AI to both increase the resolution of the existing film and expand the footage beyond the frame of what was actually shot. For example, Turner Classic Movie presenter Ben Mankiewicz said that through the use of AI, 'a grainy close-up of Dorothy becomes richly detailed, and then through a process called outpainting — though it seems like magic — we see the rest of the Scarecrow, the Yellow Brick Road, and the mountains of Oz.' In other cases, expanding the frame means creating new performances from the existing actors. Despite these changes, Dolan said, 'Our standard on this was not to modify the film at all but to try and bring you into the film, as if you were in the studio when it was shot.'
