Keke Palmer Got Down to Beyoncé at Her Extravagant Baby Shower
Keke Palmer is always the life of the party—and that was doubly true at her very own baby shower.
Over the weekend, Palmer threw an extravagant “Once Upon A Baby” soirée complete with party games, a personalized storybook, incredible BaubleBar goody bags, and installations devoted to Toy Story, Lion King, and more childhood favorites. In various videos from the event, Palmer was seen having the time of her life in a sparkling tiara and ribbed tan maxi dress that beautifully accentuated her growing baby bump, taking her maternity style to the next level yet again.
The Nope star also posted new portraits with her boyfriend Darius Jackson, writing her own fairytale in the Instagram caption: “A long time ago, in a land not so far…The King and Queen got together to play. The play turned to love as many sunsets passed by. Now there’s a prince, who’s soon to arrive!”
Palmer and her guests shared plenty more videos from the evening to Instagram Stories, which friends and fans reposted for posterity, including clips of Palmer getting down on the dance floor. “IT’S THE SQUAT FOR MEEE,” singer and dancer DaniLeigh captioned one video of Palmer. Another friend wrote, “The most lit baby shower ever!!”
“From the games to the food by [Melba’s Restaraunt], to the music by [DJ MADOUT] and [John Youngs] that kept us jamming all night,” Plamer wrote alongside a video from the event, which was sponsored by baby care brand Coterie. “It was a Chicago, Jersey and Cali connection, a night I’ll never forget. I’m really just so so happy for my family and my baby shower for me and @dvulton more than anything was about celebrating the people we love that have carried us this far!!! We know they will be so good to our baby boy. 🥰😍🥹😅.”

Keke Palmer announced her pregnancy during her first hosting gig on Saturday Night Live in December 2022. “Honestly, this has been the biggest blessing, and I am so excited,” she said at the time. “Guys, I’m going to be a mom! Even though some people feel a little weird about me having a baby because I was a child actor, I just want to say: Look, I’m 29. I’m grown. I have sex. I own a home. I stormed the Capitol on January 6. You know, things adults do! I’m kidding.”
She continued, “You all know I’m the same person I’ve always been, and I’m proud of that. As a matter of fact, when I first got into comedy and I dreamed of standing on this stage, I asked myself: Keke, who will you be? Will you be like a Maya Rudolph? Eddie Murphy? A Kristen Wiig type? And now that I’m here, I can tell you exactly who I am. Baby, I’m Keke Palmer.”
