COUNTRY singer Dolly Parton has postponed an upcoming US tour due to a back injury - and reckons her legendary bust size might have something to do with it.
Parton, 62, said doctors had advised her to take six to eight weeks off to recover, forcing her to shelve the start of a tour due to get underway on February 28.
The tour was due to coincide with the release of Parton's new album Backwoods Barbie later this month.
"I know I have been breaking my neck and bending over backwards trying to get my new Backwoods Barbie CD and world tour together, but I didn't mean to hurt myself doing it," Parton said on her website today .
"But hey, you try wagging these puppies around a while and see if you don't have back problems," she quipped.
"Seriously though, the doctors said I will be good as new in a few weeks, and I can't wait to get back out there. See you soon, Dolly."
