‘Stiff and Off Beat’: Marlo Hampton Fails the ‘Junebug Challenge,’ But Looks Cute While Doing It
Marlo Hampton has stepped up to do the popular Junebug Challenge. On Tuesday, Jan. 26, Hampton uploaded a video of herself doing her version of the trending TikTok challenge. Wearing a black long-sleeved crop top and black high-waisted pants with a gold-and-black belt, the 44-year-old got low into a squat as she turned to the side, hitting the Junebug Walk to the music. The video cuts to her standing next to a car, this time doing a mix of hip twists with the Junebug Challenge dance.
She wrote, “#junebugchallenge scale of 1-10 how’d I’d do?? #blameitonthealcohol and @therealdrjackie.”

Fans chimed in, giving their critiques on Hampton’s challenge effort.
One person wrote, “Lmaoooo we gotta teach marlo cause that’s the aflac duck she’s doing ,” and another person added, “Marlo baby … you got the June but you left off the bug honey!
.”
Someone else tried sympathizing with the guest star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” by writing, “I’m sure you had a little wine before you started it’s a little wiggly but you look good AF .”
Hampton didn’t receive the same kindness from everyone though. One person wrote, “Stiff and off beat revoke her black card please
.”
The “Junebug Challenge” was created by a TikToker named Junebug. The point of the challenge is to record small clips of participants walking and flailing their arms in a specific form in bizarre and/or funny locations. Some have done it on top of a car, on a restaurant table, even on a bridge. Once recorded, all of the clips are then added together to make one longer video. The dance is done in conjunction with a song by Jacksonville, Florida, rapper SpotemGottem called “BeatBox.”
Other celebrities that have tried the challenge include Mulatto, Toya Johnson, Monica Denise Arnold and Kevin Hart.
