Keke Palmer smolders in lingerie as she makes out with a shirt-free man then accuses him of wronging her… after ugly Darius Jackson split
Keke Palmer looked like a knockout in her new music video for the song Serious, which debuted Monday morning.
The clip seemed to touch on her recent ugly breakup with baby daddy Darius Jackson, where she was granted a restraining order against him. Together they have a newborn son named Leo.
The Serious video shows her being left for dead on a remote mountain overlooking a major city, but she wakes up and sings the tune.
Later, the 30-year-old is seen singing to a handsome man without a shirt on, letting him know that she is not happy that he wronged her.
The entire song is about how he ruined their relationship and now she wonders if he ever loved her in the first place.
‘What do you do when you’re left for dead? There’s a serious video now!’ the crooner wrote in her Instagram caption.
New music video: Keke Palmer looked like a knockout in her new music video for the song Serious, which debuted Monday morning
Drama: The theme of the music video is about being in love with and then abandoned by a man
Left for dead: A man in a suit and tie takes her out of the trunk of a vintage Mustang and dumps her on the ground at the beginning of the clip
In the clip, a man in a dark suit parks his blue Mustang and then opens the trunk to carry Keke out.
He places her on a blue moving drop cloth before saying into his cell phone, “Mission accomplished” and driving away.
Keke, wearing all black, opens her eyes and looks around in shock and terror at the twinkling cityscape below her after being left for dead.
She then says, “You never read the signs, maybe you have to analyze because you can’t see what’s in front of you,” before complaining about being an unfair woman.
A man is seen in the shower and then in bed with her as they appear intimate. She wears black lingerie and he wears nothing but black underwear.
She is then seen drugging him and dragging him into a room. He is still shirtless as he is seen chained to a round table.
“Put aside your pride, what’s really going on in your head and think you haven’t crossed the line,” she sings.
Keke then says that he ‘made his bed’ and now he is alone.
At first, all seems well between Keke and her shirtless mystery man as they roll around in bed

She added that he said he loved her, but now she doesn’t know if he does.
Palmer is then seen in the video looking at the man who now has electronic electrodes attached to his temples. It’s like she’s trying to read his mind.
The siren can also be seen wearing a gold coat over black strappy lingerie as she smoulders with deep red lipstick.
Keke recently accused Darius of physically abusing her.
According to legal documents obtained by People, he must stay at least 100 meters away from both Keke and their child Leo for the time being.
When Interview magazine asked her what she thought about “baby daddies” earlier this month, she didn’t mention the restraining order.
But she seemed to be referring to her bad breakup.
She then puts a cloth over the man’s nose and mouth, causing him to faint

She described getting pregnant in a non-traditional way as a “fantastic” alternative to the traditional way of getting pregnant.
She said: ‘S***, we all have one. Unless you’ve taken the other route, which we all know is fantastic thanks to technology.’
And she said she feels “stronger” since becoming a mother.
The actress has eight-month-old Leo with Jackson and admitted that everything about herself has “changed” since he arrived.
And she has learned to love herself ‘much more’ in the process.
She told Interview magazine: ‘[Motherhood is] great, exhausting. It changes everything about you. It has made me a lot stronger and love myself a lot more, because you want to be the very best for this person who deserves the best from you.”
With her ex: Keke and Darius attend the 2021 Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic Los Angeles at Will Rogers State Historic Park in Pacific Palisades, California
Meanwhile, the Nope actress rose to fame as a teenager when she landed the title role of True Jackson, VP on Nickelodeon.
But she went on to emphasize that childhood stardom is something that should “never” be actively sought as it can “stunt” growth, as she explained why she was recently “relieved” to have reached her 30th birthday.
She said: ‘[It’s] sooky-ooky, and quite a bit to deal with. Child stardom is something you should never aspire to, but if it happens, it happens. It can honestly stunt you a bit if you’re not too careful.
‘[When I turned 30,] First of all, I felt relieved because I was still alive. I learned from the 1920s, which were really overrated. Now I’m ready to enjoy the thirties and really dig into my bag and let all these k******s know!’
