While appearing on TODAY with Hoda & Jenna on Monday, Keke Palmer hilariously and effectively shut down the hosts' questions about her relationship with Darius Jackson.
After a bit of hinting at the information the hosts were really after, Jenna Bush Hager finally asked point blank:
"Are y'all together?"The actor responded by "taking a page out of [her] girl Beyoncé's book" and quipped:
"Mind y'all's business."The hosts obliged with Bush Hager promising:
"We will do that!"You can watch the moment below.

Fans have actually been wondering the same, though, since this summer when the father of her 7-month-old son publicly shamed Palmer for a sheer outfit she wore at an Usher concert.

In response to a video circulating the web, Jackson wrote:
"It’s the outfit tho.. you a mom."Of course, Jackson was heavily criticized for his comment, but nonetheless, he doubled down:
"We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is.""This is my family & my representation.""I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case."Palmer in return made some obvious posts showing she was not fazed by Jackson's remarks, and just last month she appeared in a music video for Usher's new song "Boyfriend."
Usher! I remember when I was 12 and auditioned for \u201cIn The Mix\u201d\u00a0\ud83e\udd23\u00a0You have been killing it all my life. As a true lover of the arts, your talent and craftsmanship are a rare combination that I aspire to achieve as a performer. You are a living legend who is worthy of awe! Thank\u2026
