PARTON AND PRESLEY TEAM UP FOR TENNESSEE TOURISM ADS

Country star DOLLY PARTON and late rock icon ELVIS PRESLEY have 'teamed up' to help boost tourism in their native Tennessee.

Elvis Presley and Dolly Parton at the DVD Release Party for Special Edition of the 1980 film ' Nine to Five ', Los Angeles, California- 30.03.06

Using the latest computer technology, tourism bosses have doctored a California driving scene from Presley's 1967 movie CLAMBAKE and replaced actress SHELLEY FABARES with country queen Parton.

The clever ad bosses also turned Malibu's beachside background from the film into Tennessee countryside for the new TV commercial.

In the clever ad, Parton chats with the King of Rock 'n' Roll as he takes her for a drive.
