Dolly Parton

[Deleted]

She looked great last night. I think she's the one celeb who actually can carry off all the bleach, make up, and surgery. She's over the top and she owns it. (Wasn't she the one who said "it costs a fortune to look this cheap?")

And she always just seems so sweet and friendly. I really love her.

She's awesome. One time she was on Conan, talking about her line of wigs. Conan asked her if she wears wigs herself and she said something like, "Of course I do. If have a line of wigs and don't wear them, what kind of business sense does that make?"

She's so straightforward about everything, and I love her for it.

She is fantastic! She is seriously one of my icons. She has been writing her own songs and is active in her community what Dolly has accomplished in her life is amazing, especially when you consider it must take her 3 hours a day to get ready.

I liked it that last night she had no set. She just boogied around and sang her song. Both the other songs had set out the wazoo. Flaming cars? To me it made her performance seem stronger, like she felt she didn't need all the props.

Has she always been that skinny? Her legs scared me. Still love her though, big hair, boobs, and all.

Wow, I'm stunned that people hear are raving positively about her appearance.

While I've loved her because she seems honest about her cheap looks and big boobs and everything else, plus I think she'd be cool to hang out with, I was absolutely horrified by her looks at the Oscars.

Tussauds is supposed to aspire to make the wax figure look like the celebrity, not the other way around. The top lip was way too collagened, the rest of the face botoxed to within an inch of her life, and she is waaaaay too skinny for those boobs. I can't believe anyone thought she looked great, even accounting for her self-aware gaudiness.

Well, isn't she like 500 years old now? I think she looked great for 500.

I gotta add, though, that I think she was prettier when she was younger and weighed about 15 lbs more than she does now.

Oh the legs scared me. Smash, she hasn't always been that skinny. In the early 80's, around the time of 9 to 5 she had an average body weight (read obese by Hollywood standards) and dieted herself down to what we see today.

I was kind of surprised she could open her mouth to sing, because she's pulled back pretty tight. Otherwise, I love her for all the reasons mentioned. She seems to have a GREAT sense of humor.

I think at one point she was somewhat chubby, and then she dieted and got slim.

Yeah, she looks waxy, but that's Dolly. She's fab. Plus, hasn't she been married to the same guy for what, forty years?
