My lips, I've used collagen. I line my lips with collagen.
Dolly Parton
Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills.
Dolly Parton
I don't keep up with a lot of trends. I've never been a fashion horse. I'm so busy writing my songs, trying to maintain my business, and all the new things that come along. I stay working all the time.
