In a recent interview with GQ Magazine, Adam Levine made a comment putting down Honey Boo Boo and her family. “Seriously, Honey Boo Boo is the DECAY of Western civilization” the Maroon 5 frontman and “American Horror Story” told GQ. ”Just because so many people watch the show doesn’t mean it’s good.
So many people witness atrocities and can’t take their eyes away from them, but that doesn’t mean they’re good. That show is literally The. Worst. Thing. That’s. Ever. Happened. It’s complete f***-ng ignorance and the most despicable way to treat your kids. F*** those people. You can put that in the magazine: F*** those idiots. They’re just the worst. Sorry, I’m so sensitive to that — like, I don’t know, man, it’s upsetting. Just to clarify, I said, ‘F*** THOSE PEOPLE.’”
After reading this article, we could not help but bring attention to this by backing the youngest and newest gay advocate Honey Boo Boo. ”Aint nothing wrong with being gay. Everyone is a little gay.”
Alanna (Honey Boo Boo) and the rest of her family from Thanksgiving night and all the way through Christmas Eve, were standing outside of their home from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. every night, meeting and taking pictures with fans who bring toys and food donations for those who are less fortunate. If that’s not enough, the family took donations in their fan mail to increase their pile of donations, spending $3,200 recently on buying toys to ensure kids have something under their trees. But somehow, even with all of the charity, and not to mention the love and support the family provides each other with on screen, haters come in the form of much more powerful, educated, and well-off public figures. “Haters gonna hate!”
Adam Levine called Honey Boo Boo “the DECAY of Western civilization.” We don’t see him and his entire family donating their time and money, in the thousands, toward the betterment of their community. Levine earns $6 million a season on The Voice and Honey Boo Boo earned anywhere from $50,000 to $200,000 over the course of the season on her hit show. Mama June, Honey Boo Boo’s mother turned down a larger house that TLC offered her family after the show became a hit, so that she could stay an integral part of her community.
This family totally loves one another. There is very little drama, and no question about how much mama June loves her four daughters. If you can understand Sugar Bear with his mouth full of dip, you would know he feels the exact same. While their show has been green lighted for a second season, the group still continues to live their regular lives in the tiny county of McIntyre, Georgia. June is doing everything she can to make sure that fame affecting her family is not an option.
June won’t even entertain the idea that the show will change her family. She has refused to hire a manager because she doesn’t want to book gigs that would take her away from her daughters. As for the money that they are surely raking in, it all goes in a trust for the girls, save for what they spent on a new car and four-wheeler. The family continues to live off of Sugar Bear’schalk mining paycheck. June isn’t oblivious to the fact that all this hoopla could end at any time. She says, “Reality TV don’t last more than three years. People have a good run for about three years. Some people fizzle out within a couple of weeks. We’ve had about 10 weeks and if it stays for the next three years, great.”
June recognizes that many critics think the family is embarrassing themselves–as if these people could ever be embarrassed! June says, “I don’t feel like I should be embarrassed about anything. I didn’t say I am representing Southerners. I’m not representing people in Georgia. I didn’t even say I was representing people in our county. I’m just representing our family. People will say, ‘You’re white trash.’ Whatever. You don’t even know me. But it is what it is. You’ve got critics. You’ve got people who love you and people who hate you.”
We would love to see Adam Levine stand outside of his house if only for a couple hours to accept donations with his family. To put down a family that loves each other so much and treat each other and others so well is a “disgrace to Western Civilization.” Money, fame and fortune are not what makes up a good person. It makes us wonder if Adam Levine has even watched any of the episodes or if he has formed a judgment from random images and clips floating around in the media. We would recommend for him to watch it and then form an opinion.
