Dolly Parton shared that her acting was at its best when working alongside Burt Reynolds, particularly in a scene where she gave him "sexy underwear" in the film The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.
Despite finding the shoot miserable, Parton enjoyed working with Reynolds, describing their connection as "sweeter than a love affair". However, she denied any romantic involvement, having been married to her husband Carl Dean for years.
“Built the way I am, I’ve always been fascinated with tall, skinny men; no big muscles, no hair on their chest,”
Parton said, describing her attraction to her husband's physical appearance. She also appreciated his smooth skin and lean physique.
