Dolly Parton has responded to some of the craziest rumors she's ever heard about herself.
After a career spanning seven decades and cementing herself as one of the biggest names in all of music, it is no surprise that - along with all the glitz and glamor of fame - Parton has also found herself on the receiving end of some rather nasty rumors.
Now, the 77-year-old 'Jolene' singer has spoken out about some of the most bizarre stories she's heard about herself - and her marriage - over the years.
Speaking to Saga Magazine, Parton admitted: "I’ve heard so many crazy rumors about me through the years."
Acknowledging one of the most ludicrous fabricated tales about her, Parton said: "The worst stories were ones saying that my back was broke because my boobs were so heavy!"
This isn't the first time Parton has addressed the allegations. Last year, Parton spoke with ET Canada about the "wild rumors".
"Oh, heavens, I've heard everything," she said. |There was one time Enquirer magazine [said] that my boobs were so heavy that they had broken my back down and that I couldn't get up, that I was going to be crippled for the rest of my life."
"And I thought, well, they are big and they are heavy, but I can still get around... I'm doing all right," the star added.
Parton was referring to an article in the National Enquirer back in the 1990s.
Elsewhere in her interview with Saga, she also addressed the rumors that she's had an affair "with everybody I’ve ever worked with.". This rumor extended to names like Burt Reynolds and Sylvester Stallone.
Nevertheless, Dolly spoke fondly about her 57-year marriage to husband Carl Dean, admitting that their relationship was built on mutual respect. However, she also joked that Dead "just about fell out of his chair" when she dressed up in a Playboy outfit for his 79th birthday.
Speaking of Dolly in eye-popping outfits, the singer recently made headlines over Thanksgiving when she performed at the halftime show for the Commanders-Cowboys game in Dallas.
And viewers were gripped by the sight of seeing the 77-year-old '9 to 5' singer don a cheerleader outfit to perform a medley of her hits.

Fortunately, Dolly also had many supporters - such as her younger sister, Stella.
After seeing a lot of the debate surrounding her sister's Thanksgiving outfit, Stella took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share her thoughts... and she didn't hold back!
"I personally thought my big sister Dolly was cute as hell in her Dallas Cowboys cheerleading costume at the half time show on Thanksgiving," Stella wrote. "To those of you being so critical of a 77 year old kicking up her heels, I say f**k yourself. Shame on you not her."
