A rumor is laid to breast

Dolly Parton’s breasts have long been the butt of celebrity body parts jokes. And whether they are insured is among them, a rumor and speculation started by the country music legend herself.
The truth is: they are not insured, as 76-year-old Ms. Parton revealed on Wednesday's episode of Today With Hoda and Jenna, as reported by Entertainment Tonight.
"Well, it’s not true about that," Ms. Parton said. "Years ago, was it Betty Grable or one of the great famous stars that was famous also for her legs, and at that time I said, 'Well, maybe I should get my boobs insured, since I'm famous for them.' But it was just a joke. I didn't do that."
The topic came up when the show hosts mentioned that Heidi Klum was recently in the news for having her legs insured for $2 million. "By the way," Ms. Parton said on the show in response to Klum's insurance news, "you can get new boobs, but you can’t get new legs."
