Honey Boo Boo's Latest Instagram Pics Are Raising Eyebrows

Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson has been in the public spotlight from the time she was 6 years old.

Her style and personality as a child beauty-pageant contestant made her an instant star on TLC's Toddlers and Tiaras, and her whole family's lifestyle was brought to light in the spinoffs Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and Mama June: From Not to Hot.

Sadly, Alana also saw her family making headlines for reasons she probably would have preferred to keep private. Mom June Shannon, akak Mama June, was arrested in 2019 for possession of crack cocaine, and since then. Alana has lived with older sister, Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon, who is now married with a young daughter of her own. Audiences have been worrying about the family, and wondering if Mama June will be able to turn her life around.

In the May 2019 season finale of From Not to Hot, the family staged an intervention for Mama June. It was a tearful experience, but despite the pleas from her daughters, including a heartbreaking confession from Alana that she was scared to stay at her mother's house, it didn't seem to take.

Mama June was arrested two days later.

Despite family turmoil, the young reality star seems to be rolling with the punches. Last year, Alana reported that she's doing very well in school and her Instagram page is filled with smiling selfies -- she is 15, after all. There are also plenty of pics of her having fun with Pumpkin and her niece, Ella Grace. But some of her recent posts have her fans wondering if Honey Boo Boo is making some style boo-boos.

Alana Thompson's recent posts show her fish-facing for the camera, wearing very long nails and dramatic false lashes, which some folks found inappropriate. A typical comment went,

"You don't need lashes and nails at your age ... Where's the parenting at? Be a little girl, please."

Yet another thread mentioned that a TikTok is going around that refers to Alana as a "Hot Cheeto girl."

If you're unfamiliar, Urban Dictionary defines a "Hot Cheeto girl" as a, quote, "annoying high school girl who feels entitled and thinks they're a baddie [...] [who] can often be found eating hot chips under their desk."

Supporters defended Honey Boo Boo, saying that plenty of girls experiment with makeup and nails at that age. As one fan commented,

"This is a pageant child. Where have you been for the last decade? Glitz and glamour is what she does!"

Showing her characteristic sass, Alana did her share of clapping back at the haters, writing,

"Y'all act like I'm 8! Y'all think just cus y'all hating on me ima take them off?"

Nor was she going to put up with any criticism of Mama June or Pumpkin. In her posts, she provided an update on her family, writing,

"My mom is now sober of almost a year and I couldn't be prouder of her and yes I'm raised by my sister, but hey I think she doing a damn good job at it!"

Last October, Alana Thompson shared another selfie with her followers and got a much different reaction. In the Oct. 28 post, Alana is seen with straight hair, a nose ring, and heavy mascara. She also confirmed that she was working toward new fitness goals.

The reaction to Alana's more mature look was overwhelmingly positive, with plenty of fire emojis and comments like "ICON," "queeeennnn go off ," and "Love this pic." Perhaps her latest style choices were in response to the positive feedback she had received?

As for Alana's update on her mom, viewers will soon get to see how well June Shannon is doing. Last summer, following the season 4 finale of From Not to Hot: Family Crisis, Mama June announced on Instagram Live that more Mama June content had been greenlit. In her words, "Mama June is back."

The new TV show, titled Mama June: Road to Redemption, will continue to focus on Alana's mom's addiction. It will start airing in March 2021.

It's sure to be an emotional experience, especially since Alana's part of the show, seemingly reacting to her mom's dangerous dance with addiction.
