Keke Palmer mini-bio: Keke Palmer is an actress/singer who won a small role in the feature film,
BarberShop 2 - Back In Business, at the tender age of nine. The role of,

other that the sensational, Queen Latifah. Keke more than held her own against
the likes of comic, Cedric the Entertainer, arguably she stole the scene. That
role led to a series of guest-starring roles on television shows like, Strong
Medicine, Cold Case, ER, and Law & Order SVU. Keke later went on to star in
an Emmy-nominated made for TV movie entitled, The Wool Cap, where she worked
alongside one of her favorite actors William H. Macy. Her amazing
performance in Wool Cap was so remarkable, that it earned her an NAACP Image Award
nomination for Best Actress in a Movie Made for Television, as well as a Screen
Actors Guild Nomination in the Best Leading Actress category. Who were her
fellow nominees? Charlize Theron, Hilary Swank, Glen Close & Patricia Heaton,
Close went on to win , still ,pretty impressive for a kid who had only been
acting for one year! Keke is the youngest actor to ever be nominated by the
guild in a Lead Actor Category.
