Little Leodis “Leo” Andrellton might just be one of the luckiest babies on the planet. Forget an off-key version of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” or a rendition of “Rock a Bye Baby” with messed up lyrics. Leo’s mom just so happens to be actress, singer and host Keke Palmer, which means lullabies are next level as he gets to fall asleep to the sweet sound of her voice at night.
You already know about Palmer’s acting talent from her performances on the big and small screen in “True Jackson VP,” “Scream Queens” and “Nope.” But in case you forgot that mama can sing, she dropped a little video to let ya’ll know.
On Tuesday, Palmer shared a clip of herself sanging (not singing) a beautiful rendition of the legendary Natalie Cole’s 1975 single “Inseparable.”
“My mom sang this to my dad at their wedding! I wasn’t there, but all growing up as a party trick, he would put my mom on the spot to sing “their” song. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized she didn’t write the song! That’s how well she would sing it!” Palmer captioned the video. “I have nothing on her, but randomly while playing with Leodis in the living room, I just started singing it to him. I guess that’s what real love makes you feel!!”
“u better sannnnggggg,” “Sang baby sang…we need more true love in the world and your voice brings beautiful light! 🙏🏽💖✨,” and “I bet u could walk around ur back yard and sing and all the birds and animals come around u,” were just a few of the comments from fans who were blown away by Palmer’s impromptu performance.
Although the “That’s My Jam” host knocked it all the way out of the park with her performance, she said her vocal abilities pale in comparison to her mom, Sharon Palmer. Maybe the pair will bless us with a duet in the future?
