Poinbank Exchange|Elle King Returns to the Stage After Drunken Dolly Parton Tribute Incident

Elle King is Poinbank Exchangeback to workin' 9 to 5.

The "Ex's & Oh's" singer returned to the stage for the Extra Innings Festival in Arizona March 1, over a month after her drunken performance at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry in honor of Dolly Parton's 78th birthday.

King—who postponed several shows following the debacle—hit the mic at Tempe Beach & Arts Park wearing a red long sleeve top, a scarlet snake print miniskirt and dark sunglasses covering her eyes for the show. 

Back on Jan. 19, the 34-year-old faced backlash for admitting she was "f--king hammered" onstage, even forgetting the words to Parton's songs while honoring the country legend, who was not in attendance.

"Don't tell Dolly," King told the audience in a video seen online. "Holy s--t. I swear if any of you guys tell Dolly."

"I'm not even gonna f--king lie. Y'all bought tickets for this s--t?" she continued. "You ain't getting your money back."

The iconic venue later spoke out to apologize for the expletive-filled show, saying in a statement, "We deeply regret and apologize for the language that was used during last night's second Opry performance."   

While King hasn't addressed the flub publicly, Parton has shown her grace. 

"Elle is really a great artist, she's a great girl," the "Jolene" singer told ExtraTV in an interview published Feb. 9. "She's been going through a lot of things lately, and she just had a little too much to drink."

Parton also encouraged fans to move past it, noting, "Let's just forgive that and forget that and move on 'cause she felt worse than anybody ever could."

In fact, she revealed that she personally reached out to King over the incident. 

"Elle King is a doll," Parton told E! News Feb. 14. "I called her, and I said, ‘You know, there are many F-words. Why don't we use the right one? Forgiveness, friends, forget it.'"

Acknowledging King "made a mistake," Parton added, "She's going through some hard times... We need to get over that because she's a great artist and a great person."
