Keke Palmer Hilariously Shuts Down Question About Her Relationship Status With Darius Jackson

Keke Palmer on 'Today'
'TODAY with Hoda & Jenna'/NBC

After being pressed by Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager, the actor made it clear she wouldn't be answering their questions about Jackson, who publicly criticized her choice of outfit at an Usher concert back in July.

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."

As curious as fans are, though, they absolutely loved her response to the hosts.

Regardless of her relationship status, though, Palmer assured Kotb and Bush Hager that she is happy.

"Yes, life is good."
"I have nothing but gratitude, honestly. Seriously."

Elon Musk Dragged After Showing Off His Juvenile Fake Police Badge Declaring Himself 'The Dogefather'

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely ridiculed after sharing a photo of his fake law enforcement badge—complete with the badge number "69420"—that declares him "The Dogefather," flexing his authority as the leader of the advisory Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is at the center of the ongoing slash-and-burn approach to gutting federal spending.

Musk appeared positively thrilled when he shared the photo—perhaps the most cringey thing he's done, at least thus far, since attaining unprecedented political power.

Lindsey Graham Sparks Fury After Suggesting That Trump Could Be The Next Pope

After President Donald Trump jokingly told reporters that he'd "like to be pope" following the death of Pope Francis, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham threw himself behind Trump's remarks, which came after Trump already raised the ire of critics for seemingly falling asleep at the Pope's funeral.

Trump said that he himself "would be my number one choice" to be the next pope after he was asked who he’d like to see become the next pontiff. That would never, ever happen—and disrespects the billions of Catholics around the world who are in mourning—but Graham suggested it was a good idea in a post on X.
