Keke Palmer has announced her highly anticipated Big Boss Tour, set to begin on September 10 in Oakland, CA. Following the Hollywood SAG-AFTA strikes, the actor/singer has completely pivoted from the entertainment industry and fully invested in her music career. Presale tickets are already available, with the public sale starting on August 4.
“Big Boss Energy”
The rising R&B and pop artist will hit the road with “big boss energy” to perform eight thrilling shows in California, Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New York, culminating in her hometown of Chicago. Fans can expect a taste of everything as Palmer promises an unforgettable experience.
The Brotherly Love movie star’s announcement comes amid ongoing labor strikes in Hollywood, where her current and future film and TV projects hang in balance. However, she is determined to make her mark in the music industry.
Recently, she surprised the audience at the Broccoli City Festival in Washington, D.C., with an electrifying and captivating performance of her single “Big Boss.” This unexpected show highlighted her pivot into her music career, showcasing her incredible talent and versatility.
