From Akeelah and the Bee to the NACCP, Keke Palmer is a force that cannot be ignored in the entertainment industry… as if her bold instagram bio announcing, “Big Boss,” wasn’t already enough of an indicator. The Illinois native’s talents span across television, film, and music, but it’s her sharp-as-a-tack wit that has catapulted her into mass adoration on social media.
Palmer’s most recent fan-favorite box office success was the hit movie, One of Them Days. The lovable comedy, based in LA, showcased Palmer’s comedic genius and why it’s so easy to relate to her. But, she’s been in this game for far too long now to not throw out some honorable mentions: True Jackson, VP or Jump In ring a bell for anyone?
Palmer Gives Cynthia Erivo A Run For Her Money
Palmer’s rendition of what can only be known as the Wicked battle cry, thanks to Cynthia Erivo, during her NAACP Image Awards speech caused the biggest stir on Instagram and Tiktok. Fans immediately turned her vocal riff into memes, gifs, and TikTok remixes. The audiences’ genuine laughter at the NAACP award show erased any doubts that she did, in fact, deserve that “Entertainer of the Year Award.”
Palmer Makes An Entrance For Megan Thee Stallion
One of the cult classics within the Palmer fandom is her introduction for Megan Thee Stallion at the 2021 Met Gala. The center of focus was supposed to be on the guests coming onto the red carpet but all eyes were on her and her ability to captivate the watchers at home with her tv presence. This one may be an oldie but it’s a goodie!
Palmer Faces Down Wings Of Death Without Batting An Eye
One of the most coveted shows on YouTube is Sean Evans’ Hot Ones, where celebrity and influencer guests hesitantly come onto the show and eat crazy-hot wings as Evans interviews them. To no one’s surprise, Palmer knocked it out of the park and had one of the best episodes with one-liners and comedic relief when the wings got too intense.
But The Gag Is…

Last but not least, perhaps the most quoted and loved bit from Palmer is her appearance on The Wendy Williams show, where she single-handedly showed Williams the definition of sass and banter. Williams tried subtly prying into a situation that happened between Palmer and Trey Songz and let’s just say, Palmer didn’t come to play.
Since her rise to fame as a young child, Palmer has been backed by a loyal, steady fandom always waiting for her next hilarious move. Keep an eye out next time she attends an award show or makes a guest appearance, because it could just be the next viral clip that takes social media by storm… yet again.
