Just earlier this month, Mama June opened up about her daughter Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird’s decision to make extra cash by selling explicit content.
Pumpkin’s OnlyFans career is just starting to take off, and her younger sister is already trying to out-do her on the business front.
Honey Boo Boo Charges Fans For A Follow On Social Media
Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson used to be the breadwinner of the family, after she was discovered as a then-young beauty pageant hopeful.
These days, most of the money she made from the show has basically disappeared after her own mother “stole” from her.
She used Alana’s money to fund her addiction lifestyle, and neglected to save any for her daughter’s future. Now, Alana is studying to be a nurse, and she’s still out here fending for herself.
Thanks to the family’s lingering popularity post-‘Mama June,’ they’re still invited to appear as guests in some reality TV shows and also to partake in meet-and-greets.
In addition to this, Alana has found ways to make more cash by representing brands and, more recently, by leveraging on her fan base.
Whilst it’s understandable that Alana is looking for new ways to increase her earning potential – I mean, who isn’t? – her latest might end up hurting her brand more than she realizes.
In a recent live, the reality TV star revealed that she’s willing to follow any fan who buys her a galaxy or more. For reference, galaxies cost 1K coins, which is an equivalent of about $15.
When a fan saw this, they hopped on Reddit to share their thoughts, writing, “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?”
In the comments section, others compared the youngster to her mother, accusing her of being a grifter. “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,” a fan wondered.
