Keke Palmer makes some things clear on her birthday!
The actress and singer, who turns 31 today, celebrated the special day on Instagram with a series of photos, including one with Darius Jackson and her son Leodis.
In one of the photos, Keke is seen with a friend who playfully puts a hand on her stomach, which led some fans to speculate that Palmer may be pregnant with her second child.
One fan even commented: “The hand on the stomach almost made me think ‘we’re getting another cookie.”
But Keke, who is always quick to come up with a witty answer, put an end to the speculation.
She replied, “No idea why her ass did that, haha, because honey, with what I drank last night, the ‘baby’ wasn’t going to happen.”
Along with the photos, Keke shared a message about her birthday and the importance of community in her life.
“I don’t want to talk for long, I just want to make something clear! I AM THANKFUL TO GOD FOR ANOTHER YEAR! I’m not here for a long time, but I’m here to have a community-filled time and that’s what I have. It’s my birthday, but it’s also my community’s birthday because they are the ones who got me this far,” she wrote.
She continued, “We are all alone in this world, we come alone and we go out alone, but what we share is this experience. Through this shared experience, we know what it is like to be one in community, in this community God lives. In this love, this hope and this joy. I am forever grateful to know and have this. That’s 31! More pictures to come because me and my crew looked cool all night long!!! (So mad I didn’t get a solo photo with my dad!!!)”
Although she didn’t post a solo photo with her father, she did post a few photos with her son Leodis, for whom she recently expressed her deep love in another Instagram post.
“I just love my son so much,” Palmer wrote. “I don’t think our children will ever know what we overcame within ourselves just to be up to the task of being their parents. And they don’t have to, it’s not a burden they have to carry! One day he will be a grown man and have his own life and family and it will be a joy to watch him pass on his lessons and share that freedom with the next generation.”
