I've been saying it for years. She has arthritis. Her joints are swollen a lot. I would put money on it being the reason for her use of the Power Plate.

And it also explains the oft-mentioned gloves.

Stevie...it's going to be 90-something today so, if you're coming to the Big Apple...make sure you take your down coat!

I think it's hysterical. I remember during one concert on the SYW tour, she was going on about hot flashes and fanning herself. It was quite funny, actually (although...hot flashes aren't really all that amusing). Anyway, she had a fan and all that good stuff. But, she sure bundles up at the first sign of anything under 100 degrees.

Odd woman (part of why I like her but still...)

Maybe she and Lindsey have some kind of pact that they will dress in winter clothes no matter what season it is! He won't ditch his leather jacket, either.

Does no one here have joint pain?? It hurts like hell when you get cold...

I was flipping through TV channels one day and caught some recent Dolly Parton interview and she was wearing similar style gloves, although Dolly's were a nude color to match her skin as age really can show in the hands.

On American Idol when Stevie was a mentor, she definitely had swollen, knobby knuckles and such (arthritis). Growing old is a bitch and worse when you're a celebrity.

I think Stevie has always had decidedly gnarly looking hands/knuckles. She's probably double jointed! And/or she cracks her knuckles obsessively (like me). And I should know; my fingers and knuckles have always been large and gnarled.

The first thing I noticed when looking at the rear cover of Bella Donna was, oh my, what's up with those granny fingers?

Good point! I had no idea she was a knuckle cracker. I always thought she had long fingers...but you're right.

I always thought she had the hands and fingers of a witch. Also, this is a picture she would never have used if it were today. The dark shading makes her upper arm and her body look fat. That and the thick hair make her look huge.

She was only 33 years old and uber thin but this pic makes her appear much older and almost grandmotherly.

I agree. She has probably suffered with arthritis for years. It's not just an "old folks" condition.

As she sings it, she was born in the desert, and lived most of her life in warm climates--a southern Cal gal. "Thin" blood, the loss of body fat from ongoing dieting/exercising, and getting older--she probably does get cold easily. In the northeast, lots of senior aged (and approaching) citizens don't tolerate the cold--the "snow birds" that fly to Florida each winter, and those that retire to Arizona.

I wonder how long it's been since Stevie has actually seen her reflection in those snow covered hills!
