The country music legend, Dolly Parton, now 75, recreated her 1978 Playboy shoot as a present for her spouse, Carl Dean, and then shared it with fans on social media.
“You’re probably wondering why I’m dressed like this. Well, it’s for my husband’s birthday,” Parton says, describing her bunny outfit. “Remember some time back I said I was gonna pose on Playboy magazine when I’m 75? Well, I’m 75 and they don’t have a magazine anymore, but my husband always loved the original cover of Playboy.”
She continued: “I was trying to think of something to do to make him happy. He still thinks I’m a hot chick after 57 years and I’m not gonna try to talk him out of that.”
Jokingly she says she was “kind of a little butterball” in her previous Playboy cover, in this one she says she’s “string cheese.”
Parton surprised Dean with the new framed cover. “You think Playboy ought to pay for at least the photo shoot? I do!” she joked.
