Country music icon Dolly Parton is hoping to show the world that age really is just a number by posing for Playboy Magazine for her 75th birthday in January. In fact, the legendary singer is already in talks with Playboy to make this happen.

Should this come to be, it will be over forty years after Parton posed on the cover of Playboy’s October of 1978 issue wearing a sexy bunny costume. In a new interview, Parton said that she would like to pose for Playboy again as long as the photos are in “good taste,” pointing out that she didn’t pose naked when she was on the cover of the magazine decades ago.

“Yeah, I just might do it. If I can do it in good taste and we’ll do it along with a really good interview inside,” Parton said while appearing on the “Scott Mills & Chris Stark Show” on Radio 5 Live. “So, yeah, we’ve talked about it.”

This isn’t the first time that Parton has eluded to wanting to pose for Playboy to celebrate her 75th birthday. She had first revealed her plans to do this back in March in an interview in which she was asked if she had any plans to retire.

“Well, I don’t plan to retire. I just turned 74 and I plan to be on the cover of Playboy magazine again,” Parton explained. “I did Playboy magazine years ago. I thought it would be such a hoot if they’ll go for it — I don’t know if they will — if I can be on the cover again when I am 75…”

This comes after Parton opened up about her 54 year marriage to her husband, Carl Dean.

“My husband and I, we’ve been together 56 years,” Parton, who met Dean when she was 18, told PEOPLE magazine. “We still have our little times, like in the springtime when the first yellow daffodils come out. Even if there’s still some snow around it, my husband always brings me a bouquet. And he’ll usually write me a little poem. Which to me, that’s priceless. That’s like a date in itself.”

She went on to say that one of the main secrets to her long-lasting marriage is that she’s comfortable in her own skin.

“And that’s sexy. You may not want to dress or look like me, you can take from that to be yourself. I’m a very passionate person in everything that I do, and I think passion has great sex appeal. I think people are drawn to that because it’s a magic. It’s an energy. And I’ve always been a great lover because I’m passionate. I just feel my sensuality, my sexuality, my passion, and I don’t have to apologize for any of that,” she said. “I’ve never been offensive in any way, never tried to be. Or I’ve never tried to be anything other than just what I am.”
