Keke Palmer's Uncanny Shakira Impression Has Us Asking, "What *Can’t* She Do?!"

-

Keke Palmer's list of talents is officially longer than a CVS receipt - and we all know how endless those tend to be. During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show, the Hustlers actress showed off her uncanny knack for impersonating fellow celebrities, and each one had us doing an open-mouthed double - nay, triple - take. Keke kicked things off by mimicking Angela Bassett playing the role of Michael Jackson's mom in The Jacksons: An American Dream, and her exaggerated mouth and shoulder movements were so spot-on, host Jimmy Fallon jumped up from his seat in surprise, much like we did while watching from home.

Next up came the real treat: Keke's impression of Shakira, which was fittingly unleashed as a cover of the singer's 2001 track "Whenever, Wherever." The 28-year-old star completely nailed Shakira's distinctive voice, with Jimmy describing her performance as both "phenomenal" and "unbelievable." The best part? Shakira herself approved of Keke's impersonation, writing on Twitter, ".@KekePalmer! You are so cute! I'm dying!" All in favor of Keke hosting Saturday Night Live ASAP, please say, "aye!"

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far
