Dolly Parton has talked about her tattoos here and there, but she’s always been shy about where they’re located, and what they look like.  Well, she opened up a little more on the “Dolly Parton’s America” podcast.

 

She said, “I have a few tattoos on my body.  They are not meant to be tattoos for the sake of tattoos.  I’m very fair-skinned, and when I have any kind of surgery or any kind of scarring, I kind of discolor.  So, when I started getting a few things done, I had a few little tattoos to cover up the scarring.  But I’m not tattooed all over like a bike woman or anything.  I do have a few but they’re very delicate.  I don’t have the dark ones, they’re all pastels.”

 

Unfortunately, she still wouldn’t reveal where they are on her body.  But she did say what they look like.  “I have some butterflies, I have some lace, and some little bows, a couple things like that.”
