Keke Palmer was the talk of the Internet in the aftermath of a situation initiated by her boyfriend. Darius Jackson – Palmer’s partner with whom she shares a child – seemingly body shamed her on social media while reacting to a dress she sported at an Usher concert. In the aftermath, Jackson was widely criticized for his sentiments, and many took to the interwebs to defend the Nope star. Palmer herself hasn’t spoken about the situation publicly and has instead apparently progressed with her business endeavors. On that note, it now looks like she’s set to collaborate with the previously mentioned singer for a new project. And it’s very on-brand, considering the drama that recently unfolded.
If there’s one thing to know about the former Nickelodeon star, it’s that she’s always on her grind, finding different gigs that suit her interests. That includes music-related endeavors and, for one of her latest, she’ll be teaming up with Usher for a new music video. Ironically, the production is for the Grammy winner’s newest song, “Boyfriend.” Fans won’t have to wait long to see the finished product, either, as it’s set to be released on August 16. The Lightyear star teased the project on her Instagram by sharing the date as well as a snippet of footage. Check it out:
