And god knows what else will fall out on me!’She added: ‘But anyhow, I really have a tendency to get motion sickness so I really don’t ride the rides, in fact they laugh about me when we do publicity about a new ride. I usually put a whole bunch of people on that rollercoaster with wigs on like a Dolly wig and just let them go round and round. ‘Then I’m waiting at the foot of the ride to talk to the press so, anyway, we’re very proud of all our rides and we have a hospital nearby if you do get sick on the rollercoaster, so we’re good!’Dolly had appeared alongside co-author James Patterson to promote their new book Run Rose Run, and with it coinciding with International Women’s Day, she shared her own inspiration. She explained: ‘Well I have many role models, I am impressed by any strong woman that’s really willing to stand on their own and stand up for what they believe in and try and make a difference. ‘I think it shouldn’t matter if you’re a man or a woman, you should be allowed to do what you can do best because we’re all out there trying to make life better.
