Honey Boo Boo looks unrecognisable after ultra glam super makeover

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star Alana Thompson looks unrecognisable as she wears heavy make-up and long fake eyelashes.

Affectionately known as Honey Boo Boo, Alana has come under fire in recent weeks for her adopted new-look for trying to act too mature.

She hit back on TikTok as she addressed a statement which was written on the video. It read: "Everyone: You really shouldn't wear them long lashes & nails! It's really unprofessional for you."

Looking into the camera, Alana mimed an audio which said: "Me: I literally told you chitlin eating b***hes, the girls that get it, get it. And the girls that don't, don't."

Child reality TV star Alana, who got famous for her appearance on Toddlers & Tiaras, took to Instagram to share a sweet photo with her family and boyfriend on Thursday.

The 16-year-old posted the photo of her boyfriend Dralin Carswell alongside sister Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Efird, her husband Joshua Efird and their four children.

Alana captioned the photo: "#california vacay....." preceded by four love heart emojis.

She is seen wearing a predominantly blue and green tie-dye shirt as the family enjoyed what appears to be a picnic.

Alana's followers were quick to comment on the sweet photo, with one person writing: "Look at all y'all! Love love love. Your [sic] glowing."

A second said: "God bless ur amazing fam! Hope josh & pumpkin get their own spin off show next!"

A third user commented: "Love this guys! What an amazing little family!

"Pumpkin you are a rockstar girlfriend! Josh, you are a role model for what a real man does for his family!!"

Lauryn, 22, introduced newborn twins Sylus Ray and Stella Renae to her doting fans for the first time last month with a heartwarming family photo shoot which also included Ella, four, and Bentley, who is 11 months old.

After Toddlers & Tiaras, Alana and her family got their own TLC show called Here Comes Honey Boo Boo where she became an internet sensation.

However, it was cancelled in 2014 but that didn't stop Alana or her mother, Mama June, from getting more TV shows such as Mama June: From Not to Hot.

Speaking to Teen Vogue ahead of her 16th birthday last year, Alana opened up about growing up and growing out of the 'Honey Boo Boo' persona.

She told the publication: "I guess people still expect me to be little Honey Boo Boo and I'm not anymore.

"Just because I'm from the south, people expect me to be all country bumpkin, out riding four-wheelers all the time, but that's not really how it is."
