There's a Wild Fan Theory About Dolly Parton on the Internet
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
When's the last time you've seen Dolly Parton wear short sleeves? Go ahead, think long and hard. With a career spanning over 50 years, there's got to be at least a few times, right? If you can't picture Dolly with short sleeves, rest assured that your memory is just fine because lately, the singer has always opted for long sleeves and is often seen wearing fingerless gloves. But why?
Well, after eagle-eyed fans noticed a large butterfly arm tattoo peaking through her blouse in this 2006 photo from the 9 to 5 anniversary...
...a few conspiracy theories surfaced that Dolly may actually be tatted up, like arm sleeve and all! Luckily, the "Jolene" singer doesn't shy away from rumors and was quick to set the records straight.
Does Dolly Parton have tattoos and if so, how many?
Honestly, we don't have a definitive number, but we do know that it's not enough to make her have a full sleeve of tattoos.
The 76-year-old revealed to PEOPLE, "I do have some tattoos, that's true. But they're tasteful. I'm not a tattoo girl."
Dolly admitted she's gotten ink to help cover up her scars from procedures and previous surgeries. As the cover star of W Magazine, the country queen was open about the art she has on her body. "I have a few little tattoos here and there," she said after revealing that her delicate tattoos consisted of an angel, ribbons, bows, butterflies, and beehives. "I don't have the real heavy, dark tattoos. Mine are all pastel. And I have more than one!"
Even with meaningful tattoos spread who knows where, the Country Hall of Famer hasn't made room for a tat dedicated to her husband of 55 years, Carl Dean. It's okay, though because Dolly sweetly admitted that, "he's tattooed on [her] heart". "Who knows, I may get some later. I may just have to get covered with tattoos just so everybody could be right!" she joked.
