00:00 >> My favorite thing about the

00:01 book, Dolly, is you've known

00:03 exactly who you are from since

00:04 you were little.

00:05 How would you describe your

00:06 signature style?

00:07 >> Oh, gaudy, I guess.

00:09 And now it's fashionable gaud,

00:11 you know, or a little more

00:13 defined gaud, but gaud just the

00:15 same.

00:16 I just like a lot.

00:17 When they came out with that

00:19 saying, "Less is more," I

00:21 thought, "Oh, that does not

00:22 apply to me."

00:23 Well, we said, "I look totally

00:25 artificial, but I'd like to

00:26 believe that I'm totally real

00:28 for it counts."

00:30 >> And Dolly's taken readers

00:31 behind the scenes in her new

00:33 book that spotlights her most

00:34 unforgettable looks from the

00:36 1960s until now, as well as the

00:38 woman who had the earliest

00:39 influence on her sense of style.

00:41 >> I was always into the makeup

00:43 and the clothes 'cause I was

00:45 impressed, as I've often said,

00:47 about the lady that was

00:48 considered the town tramp in our

00:50 hometown, but I thought she was

00:52 beautiful because she wore red

00:54 nails, red lipstick, she had

00:56 yellow hair, short skirts, and

00:58 she'd twist down the street, and

01:00 I wanted to be just like her.

01:02 >> And Dolly opens up about her

01:04 56-year marriage to husband

01:06 Carl Dean.

01:07 You talk in the book that Carl

01:08 Dean called you the Q-tip.

01:10 He's like, "I can see the little

01:11 Q-tip coming from wherever she

01:12 looks."

01:13 >> I know, because I'm so tiny,

01:14 and then I always have that big

01:16 hair and the big blonde.

01:17 >> Does he have any other fun

01:18 nicknames for you?

01:19 >> He calls me pee-wee.

01:20 >> Pee-wee?

01:21 >> Because I'm little, yeah.

01:22 >> I love that.

01:23 >> He calls me pee-wee most of

01:24 the time.

01:25 >> I love that.

01:26 >> And then you have a book.

01:27 There are so many pictures to

01:28 pull out.

01:29 But tell me about Cher, Dolly.

01:31 >> Oh!

01:32 >> Oh!

01:33 >> Bob Mackie designed this

01:34 outfit.

01:35 I was on her show.

01:36 I just loved watching her show

01:38 and just how beautiful she was

01:40 and all that.

01:41 >> And then this one, you and

01:42 Oprah.

01:43 She was on your show.

01:44 >> She was.

01:45 >> And y'all sang.

01:46 >> She's a better host than she

01:47 is a singer.

01:48 >> [ Laughs ]

01:49 >> ♪ Let it shine, let it

01:50 shine, let it shine ♪

01:52 >> When I think about all your

01:53 successes in the book, you talk

01:54 about big hair and a Cadillac.

01:56 You made it.

01:57 What do you consider success

01:59 today?

02:00 What does success mean to you?

02:01 >> Big hair and a Cadillac.

02:02 >> ♪ Let it shine, let it shine,

02:03 let it shine ♪

02:04 ♪♪♪♪♪
