KEKE PALMER LAUNCHED A DIGITAL PLATFORM, KEYTV
On Friday, KeKe Palmer launched her own digital television network called KeyTV, which aims to spotlight “a new generation of creators.”
Palmer posted a promo video on social media. “I’ve been doing this for 20 years, but this is what I’m most proud of,” Palmer wrote on Instagram. “Y’all always say I keep a job, now I’m making sure we ALL got one.”
In the clip, Palmer reflects on her career as an actor, singer, writer, director, and collaborator. “I want to share everything I learned with you, because this is my greatest dream of all,” she concludes. “All it takes is one of us to unlock a door to unlock a million doors for each other. I’m so excited to introduce you guys to KeyTV, where our stories matter and where we are represented as the keys to the culture.”
Ultimately, it’s no secret that Palmer is a certified media mogul. Her career includes music, hosting, film, television, and stage roles. Additionally, she is the first Black woman to star in her own show on Nickelodeon as the title character of Nickelodeon’s True Jackson, VP, from 2008 to 2011 and became the first Black Cinderella on Broadway in September 2014
Her big-screen credits include Akeelah and the Bee and Hustlers. She entered the Ryan Murphy-verse for Scream Queens in 2015, among many other television roles and a history-making talk show stint on Good Morning America, co-hosting the third hour titled, Strahan, Sara & Keke, in 2019.
The digital network is described as “a Keke Palmer-led company.” No further information has been released about where KeyTV will live, the kind of content that will be on the network or when it will officially launch.
