Alana Thompson a.k.a. Honey Boo Boo has a brand new accent, which she developed after dating her African American boyfriend, Media Take Out has learned. And she’s proud of it too.
In the video snippet, which was taken from a TikTok Live session, the former reality TV personality is seen speaking with an exaggerated “Black” accent as she is heard saying, “I’ma actually start talking like this … OK. Cuz’ y’all think I’m so ghetto, I’m finna show y’all how f—king ghetto.”
Social media users – especially those on Black Twitter – were quick to BLAST the former child star on social media, while also reacting to the way she patted her head throughout the video.
No, I wasn’t attempting to offend anyone!” the Toddlers and Tiaras alum, 17, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Sunday, March 26. “I did this because people frequently comment on how “ghetto” my speech is. Which I feel in no way I do. I feel I am my own true self.”
While Alana said she created the viral video in an attempt to “troll everyone back,” she added that she was “proving a point to the Karens that love to have an opinion on everything.”
