Keke Palmer’s Mom Admits to Falsely Accusing Usher of Being “Gay” to Protect Her Daughter
Keke Palmer’s mom, Sharon Palmer, stirred up more drama with Darius Jackson, and Usher got dragged into it for no reason after she mentioned his name in a recorded phone conversation.
Sharon Palmer is now backtracking, saying she only called Usher “gay” to protect her daughter during a heated call with her daughter’s ex-boyfriend, Darius Jackson, who is accused of being abusive towards Keke.
Per HipHopDX:
During the heated conversation, Palmer can be heard yelling at Jackson for “harassing” her daughter, calling him a “dick sucker” and saying he has “mental problems.”
She also references the incident that sparked issues between the couple (at least in the public eye): the viral clip of the Nope star dancing with Usher during the singer’s Las Vegas residency earlier this year.
“Usher is gay!” she exclaimed. “You and your stupid-ass family, y’all don’t even understand business. Usher’s gay, guys.”

As anticipated, the recording spread widely on social media and was reported by various news outlets. Sharon Palmer promptly took to Instagram to clarify her “lie” about Usher’s sexuality, stating that she was concerned about her daughter’s “safety.”
“The lie I told about Usher was to get Darius to stop abusing my daughter on account of his jealousy,” she wrote in a comment on The Neighborhood Talk’s page, as reported by HipHopDX. “So I said he didn’t like women for her SAFETY.”
“Everything else I meant with my chest and didn’t expect anyone to hear it because recording me is illegal. I guess he is okay with jail but I knew that when he put his hands on my daughter. He is still abusing her in all of this, trying to paint himself as a victim. Textbook behavior.”
