We daresay that it was perfect that she was cast to play Miss Mona in The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas. In the movie, her character runs the brothel called Chicken Ranch. Dolly Parton explained that her signature appearance was actually inspired by a working girl. During one interview, she talked about how she saw a woman with red lipstick, high heels, and big yellow hair when she was a child. Even at such a young age, she knew that this was what she wanted to look like.

Dolly Parton’s life goes further than just her career, of course. The musician always did lead a fascinating personal life. Did you know that she has been married to Carl Thomas Dean since 1966? That’s an impressively long time for a couple if we may say so ourselves. The couple exchanged their vows in Ringgold, Georgia, and her name is officially Dolly Parton Dean. Regardless, she has chosen to keep performing under her maiden name. Her husband Carl seems to prefer living outside of the spotlight, and he apparently only watched his wife perform once.
