The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony took place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles this past weekend. The list of recipients also included the iconic synth-pop band Duran Duran, singer-songwriter Carly Simon, new wave duo Eurythmics and rock star Pat Benatar.

Parton’s speech was the most memorable moment of the night. She opened it by jokingly saying, “I’m a rock star now!” and reflected on her hesitation to accept this honor.

“Back when they said they were gonna put me in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I didn’t really feel like I had done enough to deserve that. And I didn’t understand at the time that it’s about more than that. But I’m just honored and so proud to be here tonight,” said Parton.

Parton also gave an explosive performance at the ceremony, with live renditions of songs “Rockin’ Years” and “Jolene”. Several inductees joined her for the star-studded performance of “Jolene”, including Pat Benatar and Eurythmics’ Annie Lennox.

Variety reports that the musical icon has a new stage show coming in 2020 — Lionel Richie, Las Vegas. Richie is set to headline the three-night engagement that will feature stories from throughout his career as well as his greatest hits.

“Hello again Las Vegas,” Richie said in a statement. “I can’t wait to perform in one of the best music venues in the U.S. at the Encore Theater. This new show is going to be so much fun!”

Just last month, Richie performed at Wynn Las Vegas to a sold-out crowd. Venue president, Marilyn Spiegel, “Lionel Richie is an iconic performer and we are honored to have him debut an exclusive production at Wynn. We look forward to his return to the Encore Theater this spring.”

Tickets will go on sale for the public on September 20.

Lionel’s children – reality star Nicole Richie, model Sofia Richie, and son Miles Richie – were in attendance to support their father and the 68-year-old singer couldn’t be happier to be with them during this special event.

The Grammy-award winning artist opened up to ET’s Nischelle Turner about sharing this memorable occasion with the people he loves dearly.

“They’ve done so much to try to kill me,” Lionel teased. “But to have them here? [All] I’ve heard all day was, ‘Dad, we’re so proud of you! Dad, we’re so proud of you!’ You know, that means everything to a parent.”

The “Hello” singer joked that receiving an honor with his hand and footprints in cement should buy him half a day of being cool in his children’s eyes before they “try to kill me one more time.”

His kids weren’t the only ones who came out to show their love and support. Some of his closest friends, like Samuel L. Jackson, Brian Grazer and Jimmy Kimmel also attended the ceremony.

Jackson shared a video via Instagram showing the legendary singer dipping his handprints into the cement, which he captioned, “Extra proud to be part of This Icon @lionelrichie Iconic Moment.”

Lionel also talked about the significance of the moment after spending almost five decades in show business.

“When I first came to this town there was a Holiday Inn right next door,” he told ET. “And my first touch and feel of Hollywood was the hands and the feet here. I really got teary-eyed because now I’m here, you know what I mean?”

He added that he was amazed by the opportunity to “be a part of the story of Hollywood.”

ABC made the announcement on Friday afternoon, that the two singers will complete the judges panel, making their debut appearance on ABC’s good morning America on Wednesday, October 4. President of ABC entertainment, Channing Dungey elaborated on why the network think that Luke and Lionel will be the “perfect additions” to the panel of judges for American Idol:

“In their respective genres of music, both Luke and Lionel possess insurmountable popularity and award-winning talent that are undeniable, and we are lucky that they will help in paving the way for hopefuls pursuing their dreams on our stage.”

Both Richie and Bryan are reportedly thrilled to be joining the show. Richie spoke of how excited he is to be working with Katy, Luke and Ryan on the show, “as a singer, songwriter and producer, I feel I can bring a great deal of experience to the table. It’s going to be so much fun!”

Network chiefs were more then delighted to get Ryan back on board as host as they attribute so much of the show’s “overwhelming success” to the host. Dungey added that Ryan’s talent is “limitless,” and that he “can’t think of a more appropriate person to honor the Idol legacy as it takes on new life than the man who has been there through it all.”

The 47-year-old diva told the outlet about her lack of confidence, saying, “I just feel like I am a regular human being and I deserve the same respect as anybody else. I have always had low self-esteem, and people do not recognize that.”

“I can’t measure what type of respect I deserve — I really can’t,” she added.

Carey said that her upbringing made her insecure. “Growing up different, being biracial, having the whole thing where I did not know if I fit in . . . That is why music became such a big part of my life, because it helped me overcome those issues,” she admitted. “Sometimes it is hard to let your guard down.”

The pop diva often predicts the people around her, adding, “I do think to myself, ‘Did they mean this? Or do they not really mean it?’ And that is with everybody — it is not just with three people or just one.”

Carey’s humble beginnings helped her achieve the success she has today. She hasn’t forgotten her origin.

“I remember it not being easy getting a record deal. Making demos in the middle of the night, sleeping on the floor in the studio, being broke with no food. My go-to meal was [Newman’s Own] sauce. Me and my friend would split the pasta and sauce for, like, a week. Or it was, like, a bagel and iced tea . . . The guy would give it to me at the deli for free.”

Currently, the Grammy winner is on the road with Lionel Richie for their All the Hits tour and has ongoing projects.

“I am working on a new fragrance. I don’t have a name . . . But it is with Elizabeth Arden. It smells like success,” she shared. “There is also a secret song I have been working on.”
