>Best known for her 1966 hit, “Don’t Touch Me,” Seely was the first woman to host the Grand Ole Opry and has appeared on the historic program more than any other performer, with 5,397 Opry performances, her final show being on Feb. 22 of 2025.

>Seely was born in Titusville, Pennsylvania on July 6, 1940 and moved to Nashville after working as a songwriter in California. She is considered a pioneer for female country singers as she famously made her Opry debut in a miniskirt. Seely was among the first women performers to wear jeans, pantsuits and go-go boots.
