Here's a hilarious example of the internet's ignorance about bra sizes

I happened upon a photo with a quote from Dolly Parton today and I was kind of bored so I just decided to google her bra size to see what the Internet thinks since we all know how many people know how to measure a bra properly (sarcasm). I knew that it would be off but when I saw just how off I had to crack up laughing. Depending on the source, the measurements are so insane it isn't even funny.

Here is a direct quote from one site. I'm adding all caps at one point for emphasis to draw your attention to their idiocy:

"Dolly Parton is undoubtedly famous for her breast implants. The plastic surgery made her breast size an ALARMING 34DD. Her boob job has always been part of her mantra and she's always lived up to it while not being afraid to show them off. The result of Dolly Parton's breast implants are obviously incredibly large. Also, there's no before and after photo because Dolly Parton had her boob very early in her career." - plasticsurgerystar.com

Did you catch that? Her breasts are an ALARMING 34DD because they are "obviously incredibly large." Because a 34DD is terribly, scary and incredibly large. All I can say is that some of you poor women who have 34 anything larger than a DD would probably scare the bejeebus out of this author. LOL

And then another site:
"Dolly Parton is the legend for Country Music, she is the singer, composer and also known as song writer. Beside famous as singer, she also known as the celebrity who has huge bra size. She has 40DD bra size and Dolly’s measurements are 41-25-38 inches (104-64-97 cm) (bust-waist-hips). What a Large bra size right?" -Celebrity bra sizes & measurements

And multiple others sites repeat the 40DD claim and at the same time they links where she gave her measurements at 40-20-36 in interviews in 1994. I'm not sure if the 20 is correct or was measured with a waist cincher on since she routinely wears that sort of thing, but she definitely does have a tiny waist. She is my frame and height and her waist looks much smaller than mine. Mine is 24 but if I squeeze it really tight 23. It's not unthinkable that her waist is 1-2 inches smaller than mine. I think she's been honest about her measurements. It is just so silly that these people list her bust size as her band size. Talk about zero support lol.

Her doctor performed my revision surgery and I also came across multiple comments where people were claiming her breasts were real too lol! Ignorance abounds! :)

  • 40DD hahahaha! The band would actually be flapping behind her like a cape. That's like Justin Bieber trying to wear jeans with a 40" waist.

  • what do you think, 28J?
