American actress Keke Palmer’s baby daddy, Darius Jackson, has faced significant backlash for publicly shaming her outfit worn to Usher’s show.
A viral video clip grabbed attention on social media, featuring the 29-year-old actress being serenaded by Usher at his Las Vegas residency. The video shows Palmer dancing and hugging the singer while he performs his hit song “There Goes My Baby.” She wore a sheer black dress with a black bodysuit underneath.
Jackson took to Twitter to publicly shame Palmer for her outfit choice, stating, “It’s the outfit tho… you a mom,” in a quote-tweet of the video from the show. Fans quickly criticized the fitness instructor for appearing to shame Palmer, especially considering his previous posts celebrating her body on his Instagram Stories.
Undeterred by the criticism, Jackson doubled down on his opinion, tweeting,
We live in a generation where the man of the family doesn’t want the wife and mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others, and he gets told how much of a hater he is. This is my family and my representation. I have standards and morals to what I believe. I rest my case.”
While Palmer has not publicly addressed her baby daddy’s comment, it has come to light that the couple no longer follows each other on Instagram. The couple welcomed their first child, Leodis, in February. At the time, Palmer shared their joyous news on Instagram, expressing their excitement about becoming parents. While they mostly kept their relationship out of the public eye, they made their romance Instagram official the previous year.
As this situation unfolds, fans and followers hope for a resolution that promotes understanding, respect and support.
