She is famous for guzzling her go go juice and sprouting such lines as “a dollar makes me holler” on the controversial TLC series Toddlers & Tiaras. Now, Honey Boo Boo Child has landed her own reality TV show.

The six-year-old, whose real name is Alana, will star in the show called Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, which will move away from the beauty pageant stage and detail her life at home with her family.

Alana and her mother, June, became famous in an episode of Toddlers & Tiaras after June revealed that when 15 bags of the candy Pixy Stix didn’t boost Alana’s energy levels, she created her daughter her own “go go juice”, which contains a mixture of Mountain Dew and Red Bull.

The results of the juice certainly made Alana stand out with her instantly odd behavior, including swinging her arms in the air and rolling around on the floor, after taking “two big gulps” of juice.

The new show, which will include six episodes, has been described by the network as showing the family “doing what they do best” and includes “four-wheeling through mud pits and picking up road kill for the family cookout” at their home in rural McIntyre, Georgia.

The show, due to premiere in August, will star June, better known as the coupon queen after she revealed she purchases grocery items in bulk through coupons to pay for her daughter’s beauty pageant outfits and fees; Alana’s dad Sugar Bear; and sisters Lauryn, 12, known as “Pumpkin”; Jessica, 15, nicknamed “Chubbs”; and pregnant Anna, 17, known as “Chickadee”.
