Famed actress/singer Keke Palmer earned her first taste of national exposure with a small role in "Barbershop 2: Back in Business," later starring in "Akeelah and the Bee."
It wasn't long before bigger acting opportunities came Palmer's way. Her early credits include a string of appearances on several television shows, including "ER," "Cold Case" and "Law & Order."
In 2004, Palmer starred opposite William H. Macy in the made-for-TV movie "The Wool Cap," a performance that earned her the distinction of being youngest nominee for the Screen Actors Guild's best leading actress honor.
Other work soon followed, including "Madea's Family Reunion" and "Akeelah and the Bee," which tells the story of a young girl and her pursuit of the National Spelling Bee championship. The film, starring Laurence Fishburne and Angela Bassett, garnered Palmer significant critical praise. The soundtrack also featured Palmer's first recording, "All My Girlz." The song led Atlantic Records to bring Palmer into the studio for more recording time. The singer's first album, So Cool, a mix of R&B tracks, was released in 2007.
In recent years, Palmer has continued to maintain a full-time acting schedule. In 2007, she co-starred with Samuel L. Jackson and Eva Mendes in "The Cleaner." A year later, she headlined "The Longshots"; she played Jasmine Plummer, the first girl to quarterback an all-boys football team in the Pop Warner nationals, in the film. In 2008, Palmer was cast as the star of "True Jackson, VP," a Nickelodeon program about a 15-year-old girl who becomes vice president of a billion-dollar fashion company.
In 2012, Palmer starred alongside Dolly Parton and Queen Latifah in the film "Joyful Noise." She produced and starred in "Rags," a Nickelodeon musical film, as well as voice characters in "Ice Age: Continental Drift" and "Winx Club." Palmer has also recently been cast in the upcoming comedy "Virgin Mary," opposite Abigail Breslin and Carter Jenkins, and will also star in the upcoming TLC VH1-biopic "CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story."
With her versatility as an actress and singer, Palmer is sure to be gracing screens and stages for years to come.
