Alana "Honey Boo Boo Child" Holler visits "Extra" at The Grove in Los Angeles, on Jan. 20, 2012.
What you’ll need:
- Bright pink tutu
- Curly blonde hair (blonde preferable, but not necessary)
- A bottle of “Go Go Juice” (Mountain Dew and Red Bull)
- Tons of eyeshadow and hair clips
- Stuffed animal of a pig
You probably weren’t a child pageant queen with an oversized personality back in your youth, but Halloween is all about aspiration, isn’t it? Alright, we kid: Honey Boo Boo likely isn’t the most coveted beauty queen of them all. Any old ballerina or princess costume can be re-appropriated into one of Honey Boo Boo’s pageant looks, but you’ll really need your personality to shine to pull this one off. Add to the effect by throwing around trademark words like “sketti” and other gibberish — though keep in mind that in real life, you won’t get subtitled. You may have some trouble convincing friends to go as her parents June and Mike (Sugar Bear), but it’s worth a try. Just remember to not think about anything too much.
