Dolly Parton will never be seen sporting sweatpants in public. The country music icon is known for her love of bedazzled costumes, tight outfits, and sky-high heels.
But in a new interview with WSJ Magazine, Dolly insisted she was never tempted to buy a pair of comfortable trousers even while in lockdown during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“I don’t wear sweatpants. But I do like to be comfortable like everybody else,” she told the publication. “I have my own little house clothes, like a little dress-type teddy, a long teddy, then I have a little jacket or shirt to match if I get cold. I call them my baby clothes because they’re soft like a baby. But I don’t wear sweat clothes.”
Dolly went on to reveal that she doesn’t go to the gym and maintains her fitness by creating her very own “rejoicing exercises”.
“I grew up in the Pentecostal church where we used to do a lot of shouting and jumping around. I keep my motor running in the mornings when I just shout through the house praising the Lord,” the 75-year-old explained. “It gave me an idea to create some easy exercises, and I’m making music to go along with it…I thought I could create something joyful, where you were doing something for a reason rather than yourself.”
