‘We Was Already Over Boo' – Keke Palmer Opens Up About Her Ex & Viral Night In Vegas In Her Newest Track
Black America Web Featured Video CLOSE Source: Aeon / Getty Keke Palmer has always been one to keep it real—and now she's putting it all into song. On May 9, the multi-hyphenate star dropped a teaser for her latest release, 'My Confessions,' and it's already got fans talking. In the track, Keke gets personal, unpacking her emotions from one of the most viral nights of her life. Yes, the one centered on an Usher concert in Vegas and the public fallout with her ex and her son's father, Darius Jackson. But the song doesn't seem like another breakup anthem, but a moment to set the record straight. And for many of us navigating relationships, motherhood, and ambition, it hits home. RELATED: Keke Palmer And Darius Jackson Hang Out For Her 30th Birthday In the Instagram reel promoting the track, Keke pairs moody visuals with emotional lyrics, including screenshots of social media headlines, a fictitious courtroom, and what appears to be real text messages from that chaotic time. She doesn't shy away from the truth. She leans in. 'This one is personal,' she wrote in her caption. 'Sometimes the closure we need doesn't come from a conversation—it comes from being honest with ourselves.' The lyrics lay it bare: 'Summer 23 we was in Vegas right… Forty-eight hours later, online made me a villain for sympathy. But you lied. But the truth is in Vegas we was already over boo.' Whew. Let's not forget that Keke addressed the moment before, clapping back with a whole music video with Usher ('Boyfriend'), in which she flipped the narrative with humor and style. But 'My Confessions,' reminiscent of her friend Usher's 'Confessions,' feels different. RELATED: It's Over: Sources Say Keke Palmer And Darius Jackson Split It's vulnerable and grown. Written with Keke's best friend Tayla Parx, the song is another reminder of why Keke remains that girl. A new mom, a successful actress, a singer, an author, a producer, a podcast host, and a walking blueprint for doing it all, the Big Boss is showing us what it means to be soft and strong, public and private , all at once. As she said herself, she's 'not here to play perfect.' She's here to be Keke. And that's more than enough. Hear the full song and watch the video below.

Luis Rubiales found guilty of kissing Spanish footballer Jenni Hermoso without consent at World Cup
The former president of the Spanish soccer federation, Luis Rubiales, has been found guilty of kissing player Jenni Hermoso without consent. Rubiales was accused of sexual assault and coercion after he kissed forward Hermoso while celebrating Spain's victory at the Women's World Cup final 2023. On Thursday, Madrid's High Court returned its verdict, but cleared him of coercion. He has been ordered to pay a fine worth more than 10,000 euros (£8,945), set at 20 euros a day over an 18-month period. The court said: "The ruling bans Rubiales from going within a 200-meter radius of Hermoso and from communicating with her for one year.' Prosecutors originally sought a prison sentence for Rubiales, with Ms Hermoso and Spain's players' association demanding he be locked up for two and a half years. They also asked for a payment of 50,000 euros (£42,000) for damages, and for him to be banned from working as a sports official. A lawyer for Ms Hermoso was not immediately available for comment. Three co-defendants, former Spain women's national team coach Jorge Vilda, former sports director of Spain's men's team Albert Luque, and the federation's former head of marketing, Rubén Rivera, were also charged - and acquitted for coercion. They were accused of attempting to coerce Ms Hermoso into saying the kiss was consensual. During the trial, which began on February 3, Ms Hermoso argued that she never consented to Rubiales' advances. 'I didn't hear or understand anything. The next thing he did was to grab me by the ears and kiss me on the mouth.' She said the moment had 'tainted one of the happiest days of my life'. Forced to resign and banned by FIFA, Rubiales denied any wrongdoing, claiming the kiss was consensual and he has been a victim of a 'witch hunt' by 'false feminists.' Rubiales said he was "absolutely sure" Ms Hermoso gave him consent. "I asked her: 'Can I give you a little kiss?' She said: 'all right.' That's what happened," Rubiales told the court. In his evidence, he acknowledge making an error in his judgement while maintaining the kiss had been consensual. 'It's obvious now that I made a mistake,' he said. 'It was spontaneous. I behaved like a sportsperson, like I was one more member of the team. I should have been more cold-blooded and adopted a more institutional role.' Captured on the world stage, as millions watched the match against England on television, the kiss sparked widespread outrage globally. Rubiales also grabbed his crotch in the moment, while standing near Spain's Queen Letizia and Princess Sofia. It became a part of Spain's own MeToo movement, called #SeAcabó or 'It's Over', which saw a number of protests take place across the country, including in Rubiales' hometown of Motril as a counter protest after his mother Ángeles Béjar announced a hunger strike against the "inhumane and bloodthirsty hunt" against her son. Reacting to the verdict, England player Lucy Bronze commended the Spanish players involved in the trial against Rubiales. 'I'm good friends with a lot of the players that have been involved in it and, knowing them, it's been incredible that these players have had to go through that,' Bronze said. 'Not just winning the World Cup, but they're in the court case, they're speaking out. 'It's incredibly brave, as individuals and as a team collectively. They're fighting for change, not just in that court case but in their federation. It's amazing. As an England team we've made changes, not for the same reasons, but we stand by them. 'We want them to get what they deserve and to just enjoy their football as well. I've been there and my last year at Barcelona, watching their ordeals after the World Cup, I think it was challenging for them. It would be nice for them to get back to their football and focusing on that because they are incredible people and unbelievable players as well.'
