Country superstar Dolly Parton has a busy 2008 planned. Not only is she writing the score for a Broadway rendition of her 1980 movie 9 to 5, but she's also working on a television show for children and an autobiographical musical. Now she's hoping to launch a cosmetics line of her own.
Dolly told Billboard Magazine:
I want my own cosmetics line. When I first came [to Nashville] I really was the backwoods Barbie. Too much makeup, too much hair, the big boobs, country girl straight out of the mountains. It’s hard to take somebody looking like that serious, I guess, so I had to work double hard to prove myself.
Dolly has famously said, "It takes a lot of money to look this cheap." I kinda love her for poking fun at her over-the-top appearance, and because she's so sweet (and a philanthropist!) I could imagine checking out one of her lipsticks for fun. Would you?

Heh. I love Dolly and would totally check out her makeup line
1I love love love Dolly, but I wouldn't buy her makeup line.
2Yeah I'd buy a Dolly lipstick - just so I could say I had a Dolly Parton lippie! You've gotta love her
3Dolly is the Queen! And heck yeah I'd buy a Dolly lipstick! I may even buy a Dolly mascara or eyeliner too, the woman does know makeup!
4No thank you. I like Dolly however I wouldn't buy any cosmetics from her.
5I love her! I'd definitely buy her makeup.
6Haha...I'd buy some Dolly mascara. Not so much the lipstick.
7I don't think I would run out to buy her line.
8I really like Dolly, too, but I wouldn't buy her make-up. I don't wear make-up.
9Dolly = Amazing. Love, love, love her!
10I would definately take a look at it yes!
11Dolly is my LOVE!
12I also love her, she is always so cheerful and cute, although she went OTT with plastic surgery and now looks freaky. I would probably get something from her makeup line if it looked good to me, but I would not spend more than $10 on it.
13I would totally buy a lipstick. I adore Dolly. She'll probably make some generic shades so there is a choice fore everyone. She's a savvy business woman.
14I dunno, it all depends on the lipstick. But Dolly Parton = LEGEND.
15I find her weirdly compelling, but the idea of a Dolly cosmetics line seems almost as bad to me as the Amy Winehouse makeup line idea. I wouldn't want to look like her.
16I can't imagine liking any of her products. I like subtle color on my face.
17i'd definitely check it out, but i'd have to see if the color was flattering on me.
18Yes, but only because I adore Dolly!!!
19I'd definitely buy at least one of Dolly's lipsticks! I'm so glad she's starting her own line. In the early 90s she had a small run, but it didn't last long at all.
20I have Dolly's mascara and I am telling you, it is the BEST I have ever used!!!
