For years, Dolly Parton has had fans speculating she had tattoos. “I do have some tattoos, that’s true,” the country music legend told People Magazine. “But they’re tasteful. I’m not a tattoo girl.” …
“My tattoos are pretty, they’re artful and they usually started out to cover some scar, not to make a big statement,” she said. “Ribbons and bows and butterflies are the things that I have. I was very sick for a while and I had to wear a feeding tube. It left a little indention in my side and I didn’t like it because I’m so fair that scars turn purple on me.”
She said she decided to make something beautiful from an ugly experience. “I like to make positives out of negatives. I had a little beehive tattooed over it — a little yellow-and-brown beehive with a tiny little bee on top of the hive. The mouth of it is that little sinkhole.”
When asked if she inked her husband of 54 years, Carl Dean, on her body somewhere she says, “No, he’s tattooed on my heart.” Parton laughs and adds, “Who knows, I may get some more later. I may just have to get covered with tattoos just so everybody could be right!”
