Shortly after that, Cyrus joined Lil Nas X on a remix of the song, which became the longest-leading No. 1 single in Hot 100 history, remaining at the top for 19 weeks, according to Billboard.

I was so excited when someone told me that Lil Nas X had done my song #Jolene. I had to find it and listen to it immediately…and it’s really good. Of course, I love him anyway.

Lil Nas X’s breakthrough came after the release of his country rap single, “Old Town Road.” The song became a viral smash before hitting No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019.

The singer revealed she had heard his cover of "Jolene," and instantly loved it. She took to Instagram with a picture of herself with Lil Nas X to share her appreciation for his take on the hit.
