Dolly Parton is postponing her U.S. tour for 6 to 8 weeks because of back problems created by her breasts, according to a statement posted Monday on her music Web site.

"I know I have been breaking my neck and bending over backwards trying to get my new Backwoods Barbie CD and world tour together, but I didn't mean to hurt myself doing it!," she said in a statement. "But hey, you try wagging these puppies around a while and see if you don't have back problems."

The tour was scheduled to start Feb. 28 in Minneapolis to promote her new album, "Backwoods Barbie." Tickets will be honored for the rescheduled dates.

"Seriously though, the doctors said I will be good as new in a few weeks, and I can't wait to get back out there," Parton said in the statement posted on DollyPartonMusic.com."See you soon, Dolly."

maybe she needs them chopped down a bit

 

[Kelemvor]

At her age, she'd probably have a bad back anyway... heh.

Breast reduction FTW?

It was her choice to get those implants. Maybe it's time to get smaller ones.

Probably the closest I've seen is Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. She wore some skimpy lingerie type outfits but I don't think she's ever gone full nude.

They're filled with down-home, old-style turkey gravy, just like momma used to make.

I thought she did have breast reduction surgery. I know they are very large, but I thought they were bigger and she had them chopped down some twenty years ago. I'm sure she'd never get them cut to the point to where it would effect her career.

She actually planned to have surgery to reduce her bust size in 2004. Not sure if it happened or not. Text This same story was quoted from other site as well.

My grandma's face looks more real than that and she's coming up on or past 70.

Where's that big hi-res pic of Dolly and Shania Twain when you need it?

 

[FoBoT]

She's not dead Jim.

 

[HannibalX]

Most of you are to young to remember but damn was she a hottie in the 70s.

As always, Wikipedia knows the truth:

When she crossed over into pop and became a media superstar in the late 1970s, she was significantly overweight, although her small frame and costuming made her appear average in size everywhere except the breasts, which were very large and quickly became the target of late-night talk show host jokes. At the time, whenever asked if her breasts were real, she said they were real. In the mid-1980s, she lost a considerable amount of weight. In interviews afterward, she avoided answering whether her breasts had been augmented, referring to any procedure as only a "lift." In 2002, however, she admitted for the first time in separate interviews with The Irish Independent and The Daily Mirror that after the weight loss in the 1980s, she lost a great deal of breast size and subsequently obtained breast implants to bring them back to a similar size as she had prior to the weight loss. Since then, she has made ample jokes in media interviews about their not being natural. She even once joked by saying "Yep they are mine! Bought and paid for!".
