Commenting on the subject of plastic surgery, Parton is (not surprisingly) as skillful as she is in discussing marital fidelity. "All my life I've heard people say, 'If God had wanted us to be like this he would have made us this way,' and so on," she asserts. "Well, God made us naked too. I can't see what's wrong in doing a little something to make yourself look better so you can feel better about yourself."
I mention the recent nationwide controversy over the safety of silicone breast implants. Is she concerned for herself?
Parton remains deliberately vague on that one. "I've had my breasts lifted," she admits. "And I had myself a few little nips and tucks here and there, but I'm not frightened about the work I had done. Everything you do in life carries a risk to some degree, and you just have to decide if it's worth it. Life's a gamble, isn't it?"
From here.
