Keke Palmer Joins the Cast of 'The Proud Family: Louder & Prouder'

Keke Palmer will now be a part of the cast of the The Proud Family reboot for Disney+!

The 26-year-old will voice the new character Maya Leibowitz-Jenkins in The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, and revealed the news as she moderated a Proud Family cast reunion.

Maya is a 14-year-old activist who relentlessly marches to the beat of her own drum. She is extremely mature for her age and will not hesitate to shut anyone down with her blunt honesty and wisdom.

The adopted daughter of mixed race parents, Maya is new to town, and initially disassociates herself from Penny and her crew because she is skeptical about what she perceives to be the superficiality of social cliques. However, Penny eventually gains her hard-earned respect and the two become good friends.

The reunion panel featured Kyla Pratt (Penny Proud), Tommy Davidson (Oscar Proud), Paula Jai Parker (Trudy Proud), Jo Marie Payton (Suga Mama) and Cedric the Entertainer (Uncle Bobby), creator/executive producer Bruce W. Smith and executive producer Ralph Farquhar. Check it out now!

In other good news, it was announced on Thursday (August 6) that Keke will be hosting the 2020 MTV VMAs on August 30th!!

Keke Palmer Opens Up About Viral Video of Her Asking National Guard To March With Protesters

Keke Palmer was the subject of a viral video on Tuesday (June 2) while protesting in Los Angeles.

In the video, the 26-year-old entertainer can be seen urging a group of National Guards to march with her and other protesters.

“Stand together with the community, with society to stop, stop the governmental oppression,” she tells the guys. “We need you. March with us, march beside us.”

Many people, including fans, friends and other celebrities, praised Keke for the video.

The next morning, Keke opened up with Robin Roberts on Good Morning America about the video.

“I wanted to just bring as much awareness as we all can to the injustices that are going on in America,” Keke said. “Being there with everyone, we were all just so inspired and, empowered I think is the word.”

“I was just talking to the people that I was marching with. I just posed the question of ‘Why are they not with us? Why are they not able to be with us?’” she added. “Here we are marching in peace and with purpose, and I’m sure many of them feel the same way as we do. I wanted us to just unite as human beings above all.”

“Though the kneeling — it can be seen as a walk in the same direction — we all can also see that just moments after in some of these cities where we’ve seen the kneeling, we’ve seen the teargassing and everything, the chaos afterwards,” Keke continued.
