Confessions of A Prairie Bitch: How I Survived Nellie Oleson and Learned to Love Being Hated was her 2010 autobiography which amusingly detailed what it was like being publicly reviled for playing such a hateful character. Today she can be found striving toward bringing child abuse into the spotlight and raising funds for AIDS initiatives.
Dolly Parton
Of course, Dolly Parton is on our list! She made it big in the ’70s as a country music star with hits like I Will Always Love You, Jolene, and Love is Like a Butterfly, and has continued to find success ever since. She is also Miley Cyrus’ godmother, just by the way!
