Further Proof That Honey Boo Boo Is the New Divine

Posted by on Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 11:54 AM

Honey Boo Boo Child's interview with Dr. Drew is the greatest handling of the media since Divine '72.

(However, Divine was an adult who spouted her views from the screens of midnight movies, while HBB is a child who spouts hers on CNN-sponsored HLN. This is why we suck.)

Where's James Cameron when you really need him to raise the bar.

She's almost the same weight as Divine, I've got to give her that.

Wait, shouldn't this be an "Every child deserves a mother and father" post?

She looks like she was asleep. I think she is controlling the media. I just hope her money is going into trust. A channel calling itself the Learning Channel while airing this bullshit is certainly not trustworthy.

@3, best South Park episode in years, "I'm big as a whale and I don't give two shits grrrl."

@6 HAHA YOU MADE A JOKE ABOUT HER WEIGHT HOW CLEVER!

Yeah, let's pile fat shaming on young girls. If we don't, how will they end up with eating disorders by age 15?

@10, have you seen her parents?

And serously, wasn't Slog a little disgusted by this freak show until she "endorsed" Obama last week?

Get some perspective people, reality TV stars are nothing but whores for the camera. Please stop feeding them

@10, she already HAS an eating disorder.

@10, to be fair, HBB has had an eating disorder since before she was born. Seriously, you see her and her whole fambly eating on the show all the time. It's not attractive.

@4 made me laugh out loud. I can picture it, too.

No one in Europe (or anywhere else that's not the USA, apart from Pakistan) would vote for Romney. The answer to the question, "So what's wrong with 50% of this country?" is "Honey Boo Boo, that's what".

Dr Drew deserves this kind of indignity. He's such a prick.

@17, agreed, someone needs to do an intervention for Dr Drew and Anderson Cooper.
