"No, she doesn't look good. She looks like the walking dead, Michael Jackson on his worst day. Her facial skin is streched so tight her bloated lips protrude into space. She makes Nancy Pelosi look fat cheeked. She should walk quietly into oblivion. I'm a fan, watched Porter Waggoner every week. Her time is over."

She regrets that you fell that way....ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.

I remember on Hollywood Squares one time they asked Paul Lynde if people who are breast fed speak better. His answer was " I don't know, but Dolly Partons' kid is an auctioneer."

There are some things worse than looking old. She and Joan Rivers have both had WAY too much plastic surgery.

Note to myself: Never, ever post my picture on Free Republic...

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Dolly is lovely and classy lady, inside and out. If you're gonna blast a woman's looks, at least pick on somebody who deserves it!

...She's Dolly!....

Alas, she appears to be someone slse with Dolly's voice and manner.

I concur she was......

I live in East Tennessee and we have constant commercials for Dollywood. She has one where she looks dead on the screen. The photo on this thread is 3 or 4 times better than many current photos.

Regarding her age, she chose to fight a losing battle and alas she lost, big time. To her detriment, she won't accept the reality of change.

[Archie Bunker on steroids]

You're picture of Hillary brings up an interesting point Sweet...Lesbianism. Dolly was accused of that orientation about five years ago....don't know how those rumors started. She never denied it and aggressively defended the behavior. A little too much according to Bunker.

[sweetliberty]

Don't know anything about that so I'll reserve judgement.

[HairOfTheDog]

I saw her interviewed a few days ago and she looked great.... This is not a good photo.

[Navy Patriot]

She's one of the best ever.

You got that right!

Dolly is a national treasure, she is straight with everyone, funny, sincere, patriotic, she is one of us, and boy can she sing.

Is that Marcel Marceau in drag?
