Keke Palmer is bringing the spice with her new film, Pimp!
Showcasing her versatility and exceptionality as an actress, we see a side of Palmer that we’ve neeeeever seen before. Executive produced by Lee Daniels (with hits such as Precious and The Butler), Palmer plays the role of a lesbian pimp, hustlin’ and finessin’ the streets of the Bronx to survive.
What’s probably the most interesting is that on Palmer’s Instagram post, she says she’s been working on this film since she was….wait for it….18, and sis is 25 now.
Can we talk about g r o w t h?
So often, African American actresses are boxed into filling certain roles, and ONLY those roles. It’s as if Hollywood doesn’t see us as being anything other than XYZ. But we can count on Palmer to save the day! Breaking not only color barriers but gender barriers as well, how many lesbian pimp movies have you seen, or even heard of? Exactly.
Releasing in theaters and on demand November 9, we can’t wait to see exactly how limitless and timeless she becomes!
“We can analyze people all the way down to the bone, but it doesn’t stop them from being who they are, everyone deserves to be seen.” The Good Girls definitely agree with you, Keke.
