Pretty funny that she would do this:

As a campy, vampy icon, Parton said she once entered a drag queen look-alike contest -- and lost. The other contestants didn't know they were going up against the real Dolly.

"They had a bunch of Chers and Dollys that year, so I just over-exaggerated -- made my beauty mark bigger, the eyes bigger, the hair bigger, everything," she said, laughing. "All these beautiful drag queens had worked for weeks and months getting their clothes. So I just got in the line and I just walked across, and they just thought I was some little short gay guy.. but I got the least applause."

She's got quite a sense of humor, and she's savvy enough to know what will get her good press. So, I'm not even sure if it's true, not that I would be surprised if it is.

Didn't Salvador Dali lose a Salvador Dali 'lookalike' contest?
In any case, love Dolly. She is very savvy - but still comes across as somewhat genuine compared to the rest of the freaks in Hollyweird.

She does need to lay off the surgery, however.
