Entertainment- Dolly Parton thinks her goddaughter Miley Cyrus could play her in a biopic.
- But Parton told Insider that Cyrus would need to "put on some weight, and get some bigger boobs."
Dolly Parton is a country-music legend, and filling her sky-high heels will be no easy task.
But if Parton could pick anyone to play her in a biopic, she told Insider it'd be her goddaughter Miley Cyrus.
"I think Miley would be great," Parton said. "She's tall, but you can't really tell that in a movie."
"And she'd have to put on some weight, and get some bigger boobs," Parton added with a laugh.
Parton said the person who plays her also needs to have the right singing voice, although she thinks Cyrus could nail that as well.
"Miley would have the voice," she said. "She'd have to raise it up a few octaves though."
Parton also revealed what she thought of Cyrus' cooking as she spoke to Insider about her new line of Southern treats with Duncan Hines.
Although the pair have a famously strong bond, Parton confessed that she won't eat anything her goddaughter cooks.
"I doubt I'd eat much of anything that Miley cooks 'cause it would have no taste," Parton said.
"Even if she cooked me something, I'm sure I'd have to doctor it up a little for myself," she added. "I would have to have some bacon grease."
Parton previously told Insider that she used to love making classic Southern foods for Cyrus, including meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and a "big ol' hunk of corn bread."
"Miley's trying to watch what she eats now — she's gone through a lot of phases of being vegetarian or being vegan or whatever," Parton said. "But in the earlier days, or when her defenses are down, we still eat that good ol' food like meatloaf."
While Cyrus may be the perfect pick for Parton's future biopic, the country-music legend is currently focused on the present.
And Parton, who recently celebrated her 77th birthday, said she's not slowing down anytime soon.
"Of course, everyone would like to stay 35 forever, and in my mind I kind of do," she told Insider. "But I can't get caught in that trap of thinking, 'I've got to do this or that.' The way I live, the way I work, the way I feel, I'm going to make every moment count. I may live to be 100 or I may die tomorrow, but whenever that is, I will know I died trying, and I will know I've done everything I could to make the most of everything."
"As long as I stay healthy, the numbers shouldn't matter," Parton said. "I don't feel my age, I don't work my age, I don't think my age, and hopefully, I don't look my age!"
