In true Dolly style, the Jolene and 9 to 5 singer joked that she would "rather pass a kidney stone" than get political, but said she wanted to use the platform she had to send "love and hope" to those affected by the conflict as violence continues to rage following the Russian invasion.

Other performers at the event included Kelly Clarkson and Luke Bryan.
