Dolly Parton Denies Stomach Cancer Stories

Dolly Parton has called stories claiming she has stomach cancer simply not true.

That bastion of honest reporting The National Enquirer screamed the headline “Dolly Parton’s Stomach Cancer Torture” and told the gut-wrenching story of her reclusive husband Carl never leaving her side.

However, the story was total bullshit. “There is absolutely no truth at all that I have stomach cancer,” Dolly said in a statement.

“It is true that I had kidney stones. I had them removed three weeks ago and I am doing just fine,” she said.

In past weeks Dolly has been busy working on a number of projects. “I am back to work and last week I was at Dollywood filming parts for my new movie “Coat of Many Colors,” which premieres December 10th on NBC. With the 30th Anniversary of Dollywood, I did a full week of activities promoting my new DreamMore Resort’s opening. There is absolutely no truth at all that I have stomach cancer. I love and appreciate everyone’s concern,” she said.
