The 2022 Super Bowl brought together everyone’s favorite godmother and goddaughter: Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus. During an ad for T-Mobile, the two united to deliver a heartfelt PSA for... *checks notes* 5G phones??

The commercial opens with Parton glammed out with magenta-colored nails for T-Mobile’s theme. “America’s got a serious problem, so I’m going to get it off my chest,” she explains before pulling a phone out of her top. “If you join T-Mobile, these phones will be able to shine their brightest. Like me — I have my own theme park.” The “Jolene” singer then hops on a FaceTime call with Cyrus, who’s in the recording studio and eager to help with the 5G situation any way she can. Cue Part 2 of T-Mobile’s Super Bowl ad rollout: a full-fledged music video for a song called “Do It for the Phones.”

“Let’s do it for the phones / They do so much for you / When they’re out there all alone / There’s something we can do,” goes the chorus, in which Cyrus is joined by Parton and a slew of backup singers. It’s giving “We Are the World.” Wait, no — this is the artist formerly known as Hannah Montana we’re talking about. Disney Channel’s “Send It On” is the clear blueprint here.

Just like its great musical charity forebears, “Do It for the Phones” does indeed support a great cause — not just the plight of sad smartphones, but Cyrus’ Happy Hippie Foundation, to which T-Mobile is donating $250,000. In a press release, Cyrus said she was “thrilled to call T-Mobile a friend and partner of The Happy Hippie Foundation, as they join our mission to fight injustice particularly facing the homeless youth here in Los Angeles.”

Naturally, fans were pretty hyped to see her and Parton join forces — regardless of the cause.
