It’s no secret that kids can often see more than adults can. “Once I was going Christmas shopping. I did my makeup completely different with dark eyebrows, and wore a short black wig, and wore different clothes than I would normally wear,” Parton said. “I said something, and this group of kids said, ‘You’re Dolly Parton in a black wig!'” That voice of hers is a dead giveaway.

Just like her wigs and outfits, makeup is another Dolly Parton trademark. Although she tends to do most of it all on her own. “[When asked if she does her own makeup] Um, too much of it. Sometimes if I’m doing photo shoots or movies or such, they’ll use some other people. But I usually sneak off in the dressing room and re-do it. [laughs] ‘Cause I have a certain way I like to look. And if I don’t have my eyes a certain way or my lips a certain way, I’m just not comfortable, so I go play in it.”
