Honey Boo Boo Left-Leaner The six-year-old star of  TLC's contribution to humanity, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo,” Alana Thompson, was prodded by talk show host Jimmy Kimmel into making a presidential endorsement. While she cannot vote, she still offered her favorite: “Marack Obama.” (Reuters)

Seven-year-old Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson had to get rid of her pet pig earlier this year, but the TLC star has a new animal now:  a pet chicken named Nugget. The only problem is animal-rights activists at PETA aren’t too happy with her name choice. The organization sent a letter to Thompson suggesting she find a new name "in order to honor her as your friend and protect other chickens just like her."
