Keke Palmer Hit Oprah With a Whitney Houston Impression and It Was Comedy
Keke Palmer went full diva energy during an Oprah interview, channeling Whitney to remind the media mogul about one of her classic songs.
During a recent podcast sit-down with Oprah, Keke Palmer decided to have a little fun—breaking into a Whitney Houston impression that had the legendary talk show host in stitches. The moment was pure entertainment: Palmer channeling that legendary Whitney energy to jog Oprah's memory about her own song "Run On." It's the kind of loose, unfiltered energy that makes podcast interviews actually worth watching instead of feeling like another press obligation.
The clip surfaced on The Shade Room's YouTube, where culture moments like this live. It's a quick reminder that Keke's got comedic chops beyond the acting résumé, and she's not afraid to play around in real time. Oprah clearly appreciated the bit—because honestly, who doesn't love seeing someone flip into full Whitney mode?
