Keke Palmer is not going to let anybody diminish the accomplishments she has accomplished.
On July 23, a member of social media sent a tweet that quickly went viral, in which they made the allegation that the “mainstream popularity” between the Nope actress and Zendaya was “one of the clearest instances of how colorism plays out in Hollywood.” Although Keke has been acting since she was a youngster, another Twitter user referred to her performance in the Jordan Peele-directed sci-fi picture as her “breakout” role. This tweet was sent in response to that comment.
Fans started questioning whether or not colorism had a part in the careers of Keke Palmer and Zendaya. Someone posted what they claimed to be Keke and Zendaya’s respective net worths, and then added, ” “Ever since she started her career, Keke has been quite successful in the mainstream. She ought to be among the TOP-PAID performers in the industry at this point. So the answer is yes, it is colorism.”
One of the fans, however, believes that neither of the actresses should be judged against the other. The user on the social networking platform remarked, “I don’t know why y’all are so preoccupied with contrasting individuals.” “They have both put in a tremendous amount of effort in order to achieve this level of success. Yes, Keke is entitled to more, but Zendaya did not get everything thrown at her either. When their respective careers are compared, both Keke’s success and Zendaya’s skill are diminished.”
Keke Palmer’s attention was drawn to a tweet that went viral and has been shared approximately 10,000 times. In response to the allegations, Keke highlighted some of her lengthy acting career as well as some of the awards she has received.
