When this little girl appeared on the TV screen, she captivated all viewers with her lively character and outstanding appearance. Honey Boo Boo delighted the audience at the beautiful children contest, where she took the main prize. There was no doubt that she would be the favorite. The audience was delighted with the child. Alana effectively posed for the camera, all her appearances caused a strong reaction from the public. And the coronation at this competition was only the beginning of her modeling and television career.
The little girl then started hosting her TV show ”Here Comes Honey Boo Boo”. From here came her nickname, which everyone remembered and liked. Growing up, the girl didn’t disappear from TV, at times she participated in various programs. But her real life was far from a happy fairy tale.
With her teenage period, it turned out that the beautiful girl was changing, and not for the better. Alana began to have difficulties with being overweight, and besides, there is a hereditary factor: her mother and sisters suffer from high obesity.
Alana is 17, she will soon graduate from school and go to study at a university as a doctor. Her dream is to work with babies, to be a nurse. She is still “starring as a star”, but her life plans surprise many immensely. And Alana also wants to be loved as a person, and not as a pop star Honey Boo Boo. For several years now, she has been asking everyone around her to address her by her real name and surname. In fact, she has no girlfriends and friends with whom she could talk heart to heart.
But not everything is so sad, the girl already has a fan. His name is Drelyn Carsville, he is four years older than Alana and supports her in everything. The girl feels joyful and happy, forgets about her problems being with him.
The girl is growing up and becomes wiser, and one can only rejoice about this, because not all star children were able to overcome this difficult period painlessly.
The Corpse of Drew Barrymore’s Grandfather Was Stolen for One Last Celebration
John Barrymore came from a long line of theater actors. He himself first appeared on stage alongside his father in 1900, and in 1903 officially began his career, starring in the likes of Justice (1916) and Richard III (1920). His greatest role was his 1992 appearance in Hamlet, for which he was dubbed “the greatest living American tragedian.”
Barrymore also starred in a slew of silent films, most notably Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920), Sherlock Holmes (1922) and Beau Brummel (1924). He later made the transition to sound movies, starring in the likes of Grand Hotel (1932) and Midnight (1939).
On May 29, 1942, Barrymore died at the age of 60 from pneumonia and cirrhosis. What happened next has been the subject of many rumors. It’s alleged his friends, Errol Flynn, W.C. Fields and Sadakichi Hartmann snuck into the morgue where his body was being held, propped him up against a poker table and allowed him to experience one final celebration.
As it turns out, these rumors are true! In an August 2020 episode of the popular YouTube series Hot Ones, the acting legend’s granddaughter, Drew Barrymore, revealed his corpse had actually been stolen.
“Not only yes, but there have been cinematic interpretations of it,” she exclaimed. Those interpretations include S.O.B., starring Julie Andrews, and allegedly the 1989 comedy Weekend at Bernie’s, in which two friends pretend their deceased boss is alive.
Barrymore added that she wants the same to happen to her. “I will say this, I hope my friends do the same for me. That is the kind of spirit I can get behind. Just prop the old bag up, let’s have a few rounds.
“I think death comes with so much morose sadness and I understand that, but if it’s okay, just for me, if everybody could be really happy and celebratory and have a party, that would be my preference.”
Vintage Hollywood certainly was a different era…
