Dolly Parton and her husband Carl Dean have been married for decades now, but even though they're older than other celebrities, they're not safe from cheating allegations. More recently, the country superstar took matters into her own hands and set the record straight.
The "Jolene" hitmaker recently spoke in an interview with Saga Exceptional where she discussed some of the out-of-this-world rumors that the media had written or reported about her.
The singer began by saying there were "so many crazy rumors" about her over the past years, but one of the worst things was a report about her breaking her back because how heavy her boobs were.
Another thing that she considered to be worst and crazy was the rumor about her cheating with other people.
"They've had me having an affair with everybody I've ever worked with," the Jolene songstress added. (via New York Post)

According to Mirror UK, the country legend had been linked to some of the people she worked with in the past like Burt Reynolds and Sylvester Stallone.
Although she denied being physically intimate with them and being unfaithful to her husband, she previously admitted that she attempted to commit suicide after an emotional affair ended during the 80s.
The musician recalled the devastating moment in her book "Dolly on Dolly: Interviews and Encounters with Dolly Parton."
At the time, she said she noticed in her nightstand drawer her gun that she intended to use in case there's a burglar.
When she picked it up and held it for a moment, her dog came running upstairs and upon hearing those, she realized that her beloved pet might have been a "spiritual messenger from God."
"I don't think I'd have done it, killed myself, but I can't say for sure. Now that I've gone through that terrible moment, I can certainly understand the possibilities even for someone solid like me if the pain gets bad enough," she explained.
