After getting her makeup done, the Teen Mom OG star smiled and posed as the camera snapped away.

Mackenzie had on purple eye shadow and wore a pink blouse with black jeans. 

The caption stated: "I was told to show up and have fun.";

The song, I Am Woman, by Emmy Meli played in the background.  

On , the MTV Mom shared the clip and included the inspirational text: "Learn to find your self-worth in how God sees you. He chose YOU for this world. 

The post concluded: "Our self-worth is not to be determined by others."

In the comments section, a fan asked: "You didn't go to the Teen Mom family reunion?"

Mackenzie replied: "I was not invited."

'LOVE YOU LADIES'

Recently, Catelynn Lowell, 29, shared a group photo with the other Teen Mom stars on . 

Maci Bookout, 30, Cheyenne Floyd, 29, and Amber Portwood, 31, also participated in the photo session. 

Catelynn wrote: "Love you ladies," with a heart emoji."

'NOT ONE OF THEM'

Back in January, Mackenzie had voiced her thoughts on the new Vice President on Facebook.

The Teen Mom star spoke negatively about Kamala Harris' influence on the country.

She wrote: "Sorry, no. There are a lot of amazing women in the world for my daughters to look up to and see as role models.

"Kamala Harris is not one of them." 

Mackenzie added: "It blows my mind that out of all the amazing colored women in this world, that is the one who is making history."

THE BACKLASH

She ended up receiving hate from her followers, who called out her opinion on Kamala as "ignorant" and "dumb."

One person on  said: "Oh geez. That's awful. How are people STILL this ignorant?"

Another person on Reddit added: "Didn't she also say really racist things about indigenous people? She's pure trash."

Another Redditor wrote: "Wow! I had someone call me a colored girl a couple of years ago...shocked me then and that guy was 50...what in the hell would make a 20 something girl use that word."

A fourth Redditor added: "All I have to say is please Mackenzie be better if not for yourself for your kids."

A commentator added: " "So MTV producers do your thang and ditch this b***h."

After receiving criticism for her statement, Mackenzie personally apologized to Cheyenne in a tense phone call.
