Keke Palmer is an American actress, singer, songwriter, and television host. The charming black artist is watched by millions of fans around the world. Keke is one of the brightest actresses in America. It loves to experiment with appearance and emphasizes that it is proud of natural beauty and does not plan to go to the table of plastic surgeons, no matter how old she is.
Childhood and youth
Lauren Keyana "Keke" Palmer (real name of the artist) was born on August 26, 1993, in the town of Harvey (USA). From early childhood, she began to be interested in music. And the dark-skinned girl loved to parody the characters of her favorite animated series.
The parents sent their talented daughter to the church choir. Keke managed to stand out there too – a year later she made her debut in a film. Despite her early success in cinema, Keke did not abandon her main passion – singing.
She adored her hometown, but understood that she would not be able to fully realize her ambitions here. During this period of time, producers who were able to discern a promising artist in Keke persuaded her parents to move to California. After the move, Palmer continued to act in films and TV series.
Films featuring Keke Palmer
At the beginning of his creative career, Keke got small, uncharacteristic roles. The talent of a promising actress for a long time remained without due attention. The first portion of popularity fell on a dark-skinned girl after the release of the tape "Barbershop-2: Back in business." She was entrusted to play the role of the niece of rap artist Queen Latifah.
After the film was released on the big screen, Keke was showered with offers from popular directors. After some time, she starred in the series "Winx Club - School of Sorceresses". Then she got a role in "Gigo", and after some time she appeared in one of the brightest series of that time - "Anatomy of Passion".
The next two years were incredibly productive for the artist. She received an offer to star in 5 tapes, and she worked with pleasure on the film sets of America. During the same period of time, she voiced the character of the cartoon Winx Club: Secret of the Lost Kingdom.
Filming in the TV series "True Jackson"
2008 changed her biography. Keke took part in the filming of the mega popular TV series True Jackson.
The tape was filmed until 2011. The rating of the actress went through the roof. The television series told the story of a fifteen-year-old girl who became the head of a prestigious company. Keke perfectly coped with the task that the directors set for her.
In 2009, she starred in the TV series Psychoanalyst. Then she took part in the dubbing of "The Cleveland Show" and "Winx Club: Magical Adventure." A year later, the actress took part in the filming of a short film.
After some time, she got a role in a horror film. For Keke, it was her first experience working in this genre. But despite this, on the set of the film "Animal" she felt as harmonious and confident as possible.
This was followed by work on the series "Scream Queens". In 2018, she had the opportunity to star in the tape with a difficult plot "Pimp". After, she lit up in the Cracka tape. In the last film, she got the main role.
Creative path and music performed by Keke Palmer
As a child, she sang in the church choir. After Keke moved with her family to California, she performed on the professional stage for the first time. The singer took part in a music competition. The event was hosted by VH1.
Some time later, she signed a contract with Disney. As part of some clauses of the contract, Keke records a couple of tracks. We are talking about musical compositions It's My Turn Now and Jumpin. She later recorded a collaboration with Max Schneider.
For the film "New in the Museum", the performer prepared a chic musical accompaniment Tonight '. For True Jackson, Palmer recorded a soundtrack that played at the beginning of each new episode.
In 2007, the presentation of the debut LP of the performer took place. The collection was called So Uncool. The record was mixed at Atlantic Records.
The tracks that were included in the presented album did not hit the American chart. Despite this, critics spoke rather flatteringly about the compositions. The song Bottoms Up, which was included in the collection, was used as an audio track for the film Take a Step.
Albums of the singer
A few years later, the premiere of the singer's second studio album took place. The record was called TBA. The compilation was produced by Lil Eddy and Lucas Secon.
In 2012, the singer's discography became richer by one more album. This year the premiere of the collection Rags Cast took place. Critics and music lovers warmly welcomed the novelty.
In subsequent years, Keke is working on the creation of new tracks, which, according to the singer, should have been included in the new LP. In 2016, the presentation of the Enemiez single took place. The novelty subtly hints that the presentation of the new album will take place very soon.
The album Waited to Exhale, which was released in 2016, is considered one of Keke's most worthy works. A year later, she presented the single Wind Up to fans of her work.
Keke has a rather busy schedule - she realized herself as an actress, singer, TV presenter. When asked by journalists about how she manages to live with such a busy schedule, the artist answered the following: “I always schedule my day. And my working day is really scheduled by the minute. I think that only discipline and the correct distribution of time keep me in good shape.
Details of the artist's personal life
She prefers not to talk about her personal life. It is only known that the girl is in a relationship with Alvin Jackson. Before that, she had several novels, which in the end did not lead to a serious relationship.
In her free time, she prefers spending time with her friends, reading books and shopping. Palmer loves extreme sports, but, unfortunately, due to the nuances of the work, she does not always have the opportunity to feel the adrenaline rush.
