READ: Are You Hating On Yourself
Even though Keke may be only 20 years old, she had to have tough skin that started way before she entered Hollywood.”I was bullied a lot as a kid in school from kindergarten up to third grade,” Palmer confessed. “I know what it feels like to be left out and to want to be different—more so, to want to not be different and want to just fit in. As a teenager, you second-guess yourself. On top of that, being in movies and on television can make me even more self-conscious because so many people are looking at me, and I don’t know what they’re thinking. People can be overly critical.”
All in all, Keke has made her transition from child start to young adult star. She recently received the green light to be the host of her own talk show, becoming the youngest talk show host ever. Her message: “If you focus more on the inside, you’ll feel just as great about the outside. I feel attractive when I’m doing good and helping people.”
