Keke Palmer released the trailer for her upcoming documentary, Big Boss.
The mother of a new baby boy shared the trailer on her Instagram account. In the brief clip, Palmer showed footage from different stages of her career.
“I grew up in a very spiritual home. Went to church every Sunday,” Palmer said in a clip, which she described as a musical narrative.
“I was always in practice as a child. Yet, still curious about what the ‘word’ actually meant. They always said the ‘word’ is meant to be lived. I never knew why until I started living.”
She continued: “Overcoming this inner narrative that tells me no matter how far I’ve come, I’m still not good enough. Being different is one thing. Feeling lonely? That’s another … I don’t need to be accepted by the cool kids or the elitist. I just need to be accepted by me.”

“I’m a quirky artist, but I’m an artist, and it’s important for people to understand that Keke is just a part of who I am,” Palmer said to The Hollywood Reporter. “It’s been a winding road of trying to figure out how to do what I love but also exist outside of this caricature.”
Jordan Peele added, “Keke developed this relationship, especially with the Black community, as being a member of our family — and being the hardest-working member of that family. I think the world is catching up to how capable she is. I’ve been doing this for a little bit now, and I haven’t met another like her.”
In February, Palmer and her boyfriend Darius Jackson welcomed a son, Leodis Andrellton Jackson.
“LEODIS ANDRELLTON JACKSON, welcome to the world baby Leo,” Palmer wrote.
