Julia Parton

While all of the above was going on, no one knew who she was related to nor seemed to notice she was also pulling double duty in legitimate films and TV. She had small parts in Erotic Images (1983), The Rosebud Beach Hotel (1984), the cult classic Reform School Girls (1986) and other films and was also a frequent presence in the British soft core Electric Blue series. In addition, she popped up on TV shows like Diff'rent Strokes, Benson and Night Court. After a hiatus away from the adult industry, Julia returned in 1990, this time actively promoting herself as Dolly's cousin. She landed a few leads in B movies like Vice Academy 3 (1991) and Good Girls Don't (1993) during this time and rounded out her career in a few Cinemax soft core films. Her final appearance was in 2003.

In addition to her film work, Julia attempted to launch Porn Radio ("the first adult radio station on the Internet") in 1998 and co-wrote an autobiography entitled Saving Jezebel in 2001. She hit the press to announce the latter and was quoted as saying "Dolly's made millions out of the size of her boobs. I'm just trying to make a career out of my body, too!" The book has yet to be published and Julia Parton faded from view soon after the announcement.
