Mama June fans have had a lot to talk about when it comes to the Shannon-Efird-Thompson family. Pumpkin Efird has been making waves with her OnlyFans career, while Jessica ‘Chubbs’ Shannon just filed for divorce from Shyann McCant. Now, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson is under fire for a pathetic money grab. Keep reading for more details.
Honey Boo Boo Is Currently Studying Nursing
Although she was the breadwinner as a child, Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson lost it all due to Mama June. She stole from her children to feed her addiction and left them to fend for themselves. In a twisted way, she seemed to think that was okay. Fortunately, the public was invested enough in them that they have continued to star in a reality series and do meet-and-greets. As for Alana, she decided that she wanted to become a nurse and landed a pretty good college scholarship. Moreover, she started to take advantage of social media and bartering with brands.
This was something her mother was big on and instilled in her girls. However, it appears that Alana is doing a touch too much on TikTok, leaving a bad taste in followers’ mouths. She was recently live, and anyone who bought her a galaxy or more would get a follow. For reference, galaxies cost 1K coins, which is equal to $13.50 to $15.00 USD. The moment a follower saw this, they immediately went to Reddit to ask this:
- Does she need money that bad ? Is this what she does on every live? I’ve seen it several times while scrolling on TT. What else is she giving if people send something bigger than a Galaxy?
She has been compared to Mama June, with many thinking that she is a grifter. Moreover, that she just wants others to fund her life. One follower added this:
- The whole family is grifters .Mama June makes a ton of money but wants her followers to to pay for her dog vet bills .Just don’t understand why people do it .
How Much Does She Make?
Many followers wanted to know how much Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson made from TikTok and going live. Others questioned who would send her money in the first place. One had an app to tell exactly how much Alana made for five minutes, and allegedly, she raked in $286. That’s a nice chunk of change for doing nothing. Still, those who saw her slammed the reality star and thought this was really pathetic:
- Why??? Who the heck is sending her $.
- I joined once and asked how much is a galaxy and she answered with a quickness, I was embarrassed for her. 😅 all she does is sit there squinting at the phone like mini june, fixing her big lashes or doing makeup.
- I see this behavior as no different than standing on the street begging
Do you think that Mama June trained her girls to be beggars and grifters? Finally, does Alana look pathetic with what she is doing? Let us know in the comments below.
