See Keke Palmer’s evolution from her ‘True Jackson, VP’ days to starting her own record label and hosting the MTV VMAs — details
Throughout her career, Keke Palmer has proven that the sky’s the limit — and she’s only getting started.
Palmer, who was born in Harvey, Illinois, began singing in the church choir at age 5. After her family moved to Los Angeles, the “Bossy” singer quickly found herself working as an actress, landing her first acting role in 2004’s Barbershop 2: Back in Business.
She rose to fame after starring on her own Nickelodeon series, True Jackson, VP, from 2008 to 2011. Three years after wrapping the Nickelodeon show, Palmer made history in more ways than one. She landed her own BET talk show and was also the first Black actress to play Cinderella on Broadway.
