Alana Thompson: My Mama Put Me Through HELL This Year!!

This year, June Shannon has been in such bad shape that Alana Thompson couldn’t bear to live with her own mother — it just wasn’t safe. While attorneys protected Alana’s money from her mom , Alana’s sister Lauryn took her in. Now, Alana has penned a moving post about enduring the horrors of this year — and how she is thriving. “Can we just be real for a second?” 14-year-old Alana asks her fans and followers. As Honey Boo Boo is well aware, many popular users on social media avoid sincerety in public posts. But she wants to talk about this. She writes: “Let me tell y’all how proud i am of myself!” “i have honestly been thought hell and back this year,” Alana points out. “And i’m still standing!” “i have been doing so good in school,” she adds. “And just being more happy.” Not all of the negativity in her life has come from June Shannon and Geno being the worst . “I get so much hate,” Alana laments. “But then,” she writes. “I think about who all loves me and i know them haters mean nothing.” ” i have so much going for me,” Alana affirms. “And so many people that love me.” “And the best words you can hear is I see you trying i’m so proud of you,” she expresses. “But really that feeling is a whole different story,” Alana gushes. “Knowing you are making people happy and most importantly you hits so different,” she observes. Alana has a powerful, uplifting message for her followers. She writes: “let me just be the one to tell y’all if you are going through anything right now” “Trust me,” Alana ssures them. “It gets better you are worth it.” “i’m so proud of you,” Alana praises any of her followers who may be in need of validation. “i can see you trying,” she adds. Alana concludes her inspiring message: “i love you.” Not every teen reality star has the presence of mind to give these kinds of affirmations to her own young, impressionable fans. Alana has been through a lot, but she knows that her family doesn’t have a monopoly on tragedy. June Shannon’s drama is Alana’s trauma. June was arrested for crack cocaine alongside her terrible garbage boyfriend, Geno Doak, earlier this year. Afterwards, instead of cleaning up their acts, the pair seemed to shrug off all concerns. They went on gambling adventures while staying in hotels. Most recently, June sold off most of her possessions from her home — and is now living in an RV with Geno. We’re relieved that Alana missed most of the horror show that left June’s home covered in explained and unexplained damage. But that doesn’t make this easy for her. She’s just a young teenage girl, and her mother has fallen so far. When Alana pleaded with June to go to rehab at that disastrous intervention, June declined — adamantly. She said that she would not go to any inpatient treatment. Lauryn explained her “reasoning.” The truth is that June was afraid that without her there to keep an eye on him, Geno would either leave her or simply cheat. No man is worth your family, your health, your money, or all of the work that you poured into bettering your life.

Alana Thompson: Sugar Bear Body-Shamed Me!

Alana Thompson, AKA Honey Boo Boo, AKA the spawn of Mama June and Sugar Bear, has a sad, sad story to tell. She's been back in the spotlight since her mother, Mama June Shannon, got herself a brand new television show to document her incredible weight loss . The finale of Mama June: From Not to Hot airs tomorrow night, so June and Alana have been making the rounds, doing interview after interview. And in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Alana reveals that she's been body-shamed by her own father. How could you, Sugar Bear?! Seriously, after taking Alana to a restaurant and letting her order literally every dessert on the menu, how could you? Alana says that she was talking to her dad on the phone when he mentioned he needed to mow his lawn. She offered to do it for him if he had a riding lawn mower, but he responded by telling her “You're gonna need a push mower 'cause it couldn't hurt.” Look, if he thinks Alana needs to lose weight, he can provide her with a different diet . He could offer to do some fun physical activities with her. Making remarks like that don't help anyone, and at 11, Alana's at a very sensitive age. Sugar Bear should be ashamed of himself, but seeing as how he apparently doesn't have much to do with his daughter anymore, he's probably not all that capable of feeling shame. See the sad interview in the video below:

Uncle Poodle Slams Honey Boo Boo Music Video: What a Train Wreck!

Former Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star Alana Thompson recently released her first music video, but not everyone in her family is impressed. Honey Boo Boo Music Video Premieres, Is Not Good The Honey Boo Boo music video features the 10-year-old retired pageant queen dancing around and singing about her “princess world.” Lee “Uncle Poodle” Thompson was far from thrilled by it. “It’s a tragic video,” Poodle says. “It’s a train wreck. I support my niece. However, this is horrible work and does not help her image.” He then called out HBB’s mama, June Shannon: “Alana is a CHILD and you are ruining her image because of your selfish want for fame! Get a job and make her the #1 you claim she is!” “Help her out and get her some acting classes.” “She would do great! Least of all but so important, let her be a kid before she ends up being the female version of Michael Jackson!” “I love y’all but damn, get your s–t together!” Okay, well, someone does not mince words. The family has been feuding since last fall, when June was caught canoodling with her child molester ex-boyfriend Mark McDaniel . In a shocking twist, McDaniel – who went to prison – had sexually abused June’s eldest daughter Anna Shannon , a.k.a Chickadee. TLC nixed the Georgia gang’s reality show, Poodle never forgave June for her behavior, and we forgot they existed until this video.

Honey Boo Boo: Exposed to Child Molester Mark McDaniel By June Shannon

Last week, we learned that June Shannon is dating a convicted child molester named Mark McDaniel. Shannon initially denied the reports, but TLC canceled Here Comes Honey Boo Boo after uncovering evidence that Shannon had, in fact, been spending time with McDaniel. The scandal has only worsened over the weekend, as June’s daughter Anna Shannon came forward as the victim of McDaniel’s abuse. Now, in perhaps the most shocking development thus far, TMZ has obtained photos of McDaniel with Alana Thompson – June’s 9-year-old daughter who is better known publicly as Honey Boo Boo. The photos serve as clear evidence that Shannon has exposed her youngest child to the same man who sexually assaulted her eldest daughter, Anna. The new evidence could have legal ramifications for McDaniel, who is forbidden to have contact with young children under the conditions of his release. McDaniel was sentenced to ten years in prison after being arrested for molesting Anna Shannon in 2004. He was released in March of this year. June Shannon’s four daughters all have different fathers and two of the men have served time in prison. Anthony Michael Ford – the father of 17-year-old Jessica “Chubs” Shannon – is a convicted sex offender who served two years in prison for child molestation. The Shannon family has not yet spoken publicly about the accusation that June is endangering her children by exposing them to McDaniel. Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and Family 1. Reality TV Family This family is way more famous than you are. It’s just unclear why, exactly.

Justin Bieber Hat Inspires Hilarious Damon Lindelof Twitter Outburst

Forget who Justin Bieber may be dating. And forget any new Justin Bieber music that may be on the way. Former Lost producer Damon Lindelof only cares about one thing: the choice of headgear this singer made while abroad this week. Indeed, the following hat spawned a Twitter outburst the likes of which we’ve rarely seen yesterday. A few of the best Lindelof gems: Bieber: ‘How much for the huge yellow hat with spikes that looks painful?’ Clerk: ‘Fourteen Million Dollars.’ Bieber: ‘Sold, bitch!’ Yellow shiny spikes. I wear you golden love crown. Ooh baby baby. #BieberHatHaiku” ‘That hat is f–king ridiculous.'” — Johnny Depp, to Bieber, whilst wearing a dead peacock on his head. That hat looks like Pac Man wandered into the gay bar from Police Academy. FACT: The hat did NOT exist before the Russian Meteorite. Coincidence? GOOD LORD I HOPE SO. What do YOU think of Justin’s hat, THGers?   Love it! Hate it! Yikes. No comment! View Poll »

Honey Boo Boo Girl Scout Cookies Facebook Campaign: Shut Down!

Like countless other young Americans, Honey Boo Boo has been selling Girl Scout cookies. To her hundreds of thousands of fans online, and the chagrin of the Girl Scouts of the USA. Honey Boo Boo posted the above ad on her Facebook page, which has 701,000 likes. She also drew the organization’s ire by posting photos of stacks of boxes she sold.  HBB is not selling the cookies for herself, it’s worth nothing, but for a friend. Nevertheless, to say didn’t go down well with the organization is an understatement. A rep for GSUSA in Georgia, where young Alana Thompson lives, tells TMZ they contacted her site’s administrator and explained that this is off-limits . No good deed – or massive cookie sale – goes unpunished, as they say. Using Facebook and the like “defeats the whole purpose of selling the cookies,” such as teaching the girls about setting goals, working with people, etc. The sales she’s already WILL count, but if HBB wants to help her BFF from now on, she’s gonna have to set up shop outside Walmart like everyone else. That or go door to door. Maybe June Shannon or Poodle can drive? NOTE : It’s unclear what her biggest seller was among the GSC brands. Thin Mints are the best, right? What are your favorite types of Girl Scout Cookies? NOTE #2 : They’re no GSC, but this chocolate chip cookie recipe is dope. Seriously. It’ll hold its own with Samoas and the like any day of the week.
