Hollywood legend and former U.S. Ambassador Shirley Temple Black joined Twitter earlier this week and managed to make it one whole day without any mention of reality TV phenom Honey Boo Boo. Sorry, but weighing in on Honey Boo Boo is part of the Twitter initiation. We all go through it.

So, who wants to be the one to explain Honey Boo Boo to Shirley Temple?
@TempleShirleyJ you probably don't want to know 😐

@TempleShirleyJ you really don't want to know.

@TempleShirleyJ you're best off not knowing

@TempleShirleyJ you don’t want to know. I’ve been trying to erase it from my mind.

Come on — now she’s going to be really curious. It’s better she hear it from friends on Twitter than from TV.
@TempleShirleyJ She's a dumbed down version of your childhood actress character –funny but not as talented

@CrystalLewis60 @TempleShirleyJ A very rude little girl, with very bad manners, and no natural talent for anything.

@TempleShirleyJ She's what child stars have evolved into. Unfortunately.

A honey boo boo is like a Shirley Temple, but you add 20 oz of Jack Daniels & leave it out in the sun for a week @TempleShirleyJ @karonliu

Correction:
The account reportedly belonged to an impostor and is now being used to hawk Viagra and work-at-home scams. Twitchy apologizes for the error.
