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.

Connecticut Democratic Senator Chris Murphy said "maybe it's time to pick a f**king side" in response to President Donald Trump's call for a group of congressional Democrats who are military veterans to be executed after they reminded U.S. troops that they must disobey unlawful orders.
Senators Elissa Slotkin (Michigan) and Mark Kelly (Arizona) joined Representatives Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan (Pennsylvania), Maggie Goodlander (New Hampshire), and Jason Crow (Colorado), all of whom are veterans.

Relationships can dissolve for all kinds of reasons, but a key reason that's become more popular with the prevalence of TikTok and Reddit is not staying with someone who doesn't listen to their partner or prioritize their needs.
Knowing a person's favorite song or how they take their coffee might seem like a mundane thing, but it's an intimate detail that shows that you care about your partner's likes and interests.

Sometimes you don't know what you don't know until someone shows it to you in a TikTok video. 
For instance, a person might not know about the possibility of having an astigmatism, which is an ocular condition that causes blurriness in vision, and the blurriness worsens with bright, contrasting lights. Blurring taillights at night, especially when it's raining, is a common occurrence among those with astigmatism.
