Ice Cube Told Keke Palmer to Protect Herself From Men in Hollywood Back in 2008

Keke Palmer shared a significant piece of advice she received from Ice Cube during their time together in the 2008 film, The Longshots, on a recent episode of Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast. The 31-year-old actress remembered the rapper, known for his brevity and wisdom, pulling her aside with his bodyguards present. Ice Cube praised her as a "beautiful young lady" and lauded her kindness and warmth towards everyone on set. However, he cautioned her that her perception of herself might differ from how others, especially men in Hollywood, viewed her. This is prepared by SSP.

She recounted how Ice Cube advised her to "protect yourself, be careful and don’t let them take advantage of you. Know who you are and know what you have so people can't use it against you." Although Palmer, only 14 at the time, didn't fully grasp the weight of his words, the message resonated with her as she grew. She expressed her gratitude toward Ice Cube for this critical conversation, remarking how it had stayed with her over the years. As a father figure with extensive industry experience, his advice was instrumental for her journey.
