The Time When Dolly Parton Posed For Playboy

Dolly Parton is a country music legend, theme park owner and one of the most beautiful people on the planet, but above all she's a strong, independent woman with loads of integrity who refuses to compromise her values for money.

Which is why people were surprised to see her on the cover of the October 1978 issue of Playboy, and the hopeful who bought the issue discovered to their dismay that Dolly did not appear nude in the mag.

Instead she posed in a Playboy Bunny outfit with a lecherous Easter Bunny lurking behind her, which presumably did not tittilate readers as much as make them laugh about the bunny and cry about the lack of nudity.

This is what Dolly had to say about the experience during an interview with Lawrence Grobel back in 1978:

I got kind of scared when I thought they wanted me to do something … I didn’t want to be naked on the front of a magazine unless everybody would know it was a joke. I wouldn’t want to be naked even then.
