Stella started her music career at a young age, and by the 1970s, she was already touring with her sister Dolly. But don't think she was just riding Dolly's coattails - Stella has some serious vocal chops of her own, and her albums have been fairly successful over the years. In fact, her 1977 album Country Sweetheart was a chart-topper!
But music isn't the only thing that's brought home the bacon for Stella. She's also made a pretty penny from her touring endeavors, performing at countless venues around the world. And let's not forget about the merchandise - who wouldn't want a Stella Parton t-shirt or CD?
