Homegirl at Heart
Dolly without a wig – the rarest of rare photographs! This unusual photograph is difficult to identify, yet it appears from the 1960s based on her vivid blush, lipstick, and eyelash to eyebrow makeup.
Dolly is a country music superstar, but she’s a homegirl. “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” her worldwide smash, is dedicated to her love of the simple life with her family, away from the glitz and glamour.
Love At The Laundromat
Dolly is shown here with her husband, Carl Dean, when she was young and dazzling. Dean is an asphalt contractor, and despite the couple’s unusual match, they are nonetheless happily married, owing to their mutual love and respect.
In 1964, the two initially met in a laundry in Nashville. Dean fell in love at first sight. “My initial instinct was, ‘I’m going to marry that girl,'” he admitted. “My second thought was, ‘Lord, she’s pretty.'”
