Keke Palmer is opening up about her time as a child star on Nickelodeon.
In an interview with The Cut, she spoke candidly about the racial dynamics at play at the network.
“I wasn’t necessarily in the same conversations as Victoria Justice or Selena Gomez or Miley Cyrus at that time,” Palmer explained. Adding that “people were putting limitations” on her at that time.
“It was very much ‘That’s the Black show’ or ‘That’s Keke Palmer, the Black girl on the network,” she continued.
