Keke Palmer’s boyfriend deactivates his social media following fans accusing him of shaming the actress’ dress at an Usher concert. If “Mama’s Gotta Have a Life, Too, Baby” was a person, it would undoubtedly be actress/singer Keke Palmer! However, her child’s father, Darius Jackson (aka Daulton), appears to be uninterested and has since deleted his social media profiles. Keke Palmer recently went to one of Usher’s gigs and was treated to a friendly “serenade” from the R&B legend. Footage of the remarkable exchange between Keke Palmer and Usher went viral on the internet, garnering a lot of applause. Following the viral moment, Palmer’s ‘Nope’ co-star Darius Jackson rushed to Twitter to share his displeasure with Palmer’s apparel at the concert.

Darius Jackson just tweeted, “It’s the outfit tho,” after quoting a video of the 29-year-old being “wooed” by Usher. “You’re a mother.” Leodis, Palmer and Jackson’s infant boy, was born earlier this year. Palmer appears in the now-viral video wearing a black bodysuit with a sheer overlay. Following Jackson’s statements on her risqué style of choice, fans immediately rallied behind Palmer, accusing Jackson of speaking from a place of “insecurity.” In response to the criticism, he stated, Our generation has come to the point where men don’t want their wives and mothers to show off their booty cheeks to please others, and they get called haters for doing so.

Fans Call Out Keke Palmer’s Boyfriend For ‘Shaming’ Her Outfit At A Usher Concert, Resulting In Him Deactivating Social Media
Darius Jackson has grabbed headlines in the last two days after loudly criticizing his actress girlfriend’s wardrobe at an Usher event. Keke Palmer’s boyfriend deactivates his social media as fans accuse him of shaming the actress’ outfit at an Usher concert. Keke Palmer recently went to one of Usher’s gigs and was treated to a friendly “serenade” from the R&B legend. Internet videos of Keke Palmer and Usher’s noteworthy interaction went viral, receiving a lot of attention. Following the viral moment, Palmer’s ‘Nope’ co-star Darius Jackson rushed to Twitter to express his displeasure with Palmer’s outfit at the concert. Darius Jackson just tweeted, “It’s the outfit tho,” after quoting a video of the 29-year-old being “wooed” by Usher. “You’re a mother.” Leodis, Palmer and Jackson’s infant boy, was born earlier this year. Palmer appears in the now-viral video wearing a black bodysuit with a sheer overlay. Following Jackson’s statements on her risqué style of choice, fans virtually rallied behind Palmer, accusing Jackson of speaking from a place of “insecurity.”
In response to the criticism, he stated, “In the age where men of the family do not want their wives and mothers to show off their booty cheeks to please others, they get called haters.” Jackson responded, “This is my family and my representation.” I have principles and standards for what I believe. “I’m taking a break from my cast.”In the midst of the public scrutiny, Palmer shared additional photographs from the lively event, clearly enjoying herself. The ‘Akeelah and the Bee’ phenomena shared in her (indirect) shady comment, “I wish I could have taken a few more pictures although we were running late!” ISeeing @usher is a must if you haven’t already! She said, tagging a friend who was also present, “I really enjoyed myself as a performer.” I whooped some a** as well! Where is the picture of us all with the King himself? Although Palmer appeared unconcerned by the attention, Jackson remained at the centre of jealous claims that suggested him not like Usher and Palmer’s interchange. Many others believed that his statement(s) were not only embarrassing to Palmer, but were also steeped in misogyny and sexism.
