(Cover) - EN Star Style - Dolly Parton credits not having children for her gravity-defying figure.

The 65-year-old country legend is famed for her flamboyant sense of style and voluptuous curves, including her trademark DD breasts.

The songstress insists that not starting a family life has enabled her to maintain her infamous curves and glamorous looks.

"There's a lot to that, yes," she said when asked whether she believes not having children has helped preserve her figure. "I never had children of my own it's true but I have a lot of nieces and nephews and a lot of younger brothers and sisters. So I have the best of both."

Dolly is proud of her eye-grabbing career. The blonde star, who is famed for her extensive wig collection, has previously joked about wanting people to appreciate her large bosom.

"I've slapped a few people who didn't stare at them! For this kind of money, they'd better be looking at them," she quipped. (C) Cover Media
