Keke Palmer Drops ‘I’m a Motha' Merch After Boyfriend Darius Jackson's Mommy-Shaming Comments
Keke Palmer is still in control. On July 7, the 29-year-old Glamour cover star seemed to respond to Darius Jackson's recent mommy-shaming comments with a series of perfect social media posts.
Earlier this week, Palmer's boyfriend of nearly two years publically chastised the mother of his four-month-old son for wearing a sheer dress to an Usher concert in Las Vegas. “It’s the outfit tho.. you a mom,” Jackson wrote in the now-infamous quote-tweet. After receiving inevitable backlash, he doubled down with a second tweet, writing, “We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is.”
Jackson continued, “This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case.” Despite his bold words, the fitness trainer has since turned off his replies and seemingly deleted all Instagram photos of Palmer, per Page Six.
Of course, Keke Palmer isn't about to let a man tell her what to do. Initially, the Big Boss singer shared a slideshow of Vegas outfit photos on July 6, captioning the post, “I wish I had taken more pictures but we were running late!”

Then, on July 7, the Nope star kicked things up a notch without ever mentioning Jackson's name (the pair don't even follow each other on Instagram). First, she pulled an Ariana Madix, releasing merch that appears to reference the drama. “One thing is certain and one thing is true, IM A MOTHA, through and through! 😍,” she captioned an Instagram video serenading her son to “Isn't She Lovely,” by Stevie Wonder. "'IM A MOTHA' and ‘Stevie to the bullshit’ shirts available NOW! Link in bio :)”
She added, “To all my mom’s out there, how did your baby change you?? Mine empowered me! On such another level, my perspective changed because when my baby is good I’m GREAT! Look at that face! Gratitude galore.”
