Honey Boo Boo has left her fans in awe after she attended her high school prom with her boyfriend Dralin Carswell.
The 17-year-old reality TV star – whose real name is Alana Thompson – donned a stunning pink gown decorated with sequins and intricate beading for the special occasion.
Her long blonde hair was styled in waves and done up into a high ponytail that fell alongside her face, which had ultra-glam pink makeup.
Check out Thompson’s prom pictures below:
Instead of taking a limousine to prom, the couple rode in style with a horse-drawn carriage – which was perfect for the TV personality’s magical evening.
Upon seeing her photos, many users took to their social media to gush about the young reality TV star’s look for prom. One person wrote: “After a hard few years she deserves to have a great prom experience. She looks great.”

Thompson first came to fame at age six on Toddlers & Tiaras in 2012 and stayed with the show for a year. She then appeared on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo from 2012 to 2014 and featured on Mama June: From Not To Hot which aired from 2017 until 2020. She was also on The Masked Singer in 2021.
Her prom pictures come after she was hit with backlash after a TikTok live video of her “new accent” went viral on social media. Speaking with an exaggerated accent, she is heard saying: “I’ma actually start talking like this … OK. Cuz’ y’all think I’m so ghetto, I’m finna show y’all how f***ing ghetto.”
As soon as a video snippet of the live session was shared on other social media platforms, many users quickly called out the internet personality. So on March 16, the child star clarified the reason for her new accent on her Instagram Stories.
“I [understand] that people use that method to relieve itch when they have a hairstyle. I’m fully aware, I also love trying new wigs as well … lastly, this is the end I will speak on this topic,” the Toddlers & Tiaras alum concluded.
