Honey Boo Boo child’s very own reality show is here and RadarOnline.com has a sneak peek where you can get to know her mama June Shannon before the show airs.
Six-year-old pageant super star Alana Thompson and her self-proclaimed redneck family are starring in Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and they’re doing what the rest of the country is right now – trying to save money.
“Pageants are very, very expensive,” June tells the camera. “It is not a cheap sport by any means.”
So June and Honey Boo Boo head off to the local auction where they’re going to try and get cheap household goods and food.
“I’m a thrifty saving mommy,” June declares, and says she doesn’t go in with any expectations.
“Sometimes he has what I’m looking for sometimes he don’t. I know some of it is close to expiring or maybe fell off the back of the truck but shoot, it’s cheap.”
