Honey Boo Boo special brings a few surprises, not all of them pleasant

Of all the people you’d think could wear a Marilyn Monroe costume and do it justice, Mama June (aka June Shannon) of TLC’s Here Comes Honey Boo Boo is perhaps last on the list. Sugarbear disagrees though.

This Sunday’s “HOLLADay” special on TLC brought a massive surprise for fans of this regular reality family: Mama June got a makeover.

Since she’s known as the Coupon Queen and is always going out of her way to save money, this was a home makeover, but a makeover nonetheless.

The video below shows just one of the costumes that Mama June tried out for Halloween, a Marilyn Monroe dress her husband, Sugarbear, bought for her.

Her own kids thought she looked a “mess,” but Sugarbear found her incredibly hot. To each his own, as they say.
