Keke Palmer is opening up about whether she’d like to revisit one of her earliest roles: True Jackson.
Palmer, 32, played the titular character on Nickelodeon’s True Jackson, VP from 2008 to 2011. In the show, Palmer played a savvy teenager hired to serve as the vice president of Youth Apparel at a fictional fashion company called “Mad Style.”
The actress spoke to Parade for a recent interview that touched on another Disney Channel star, Miley Cyrus, who recently revisited her own childhood character in the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special

Asked if Palmer would like to revisit True, the actress responded, “Oh yeah. I’m one of those people that started acting as a kid that really still loves my kid work. Not everything I can revisit because maybe there’s not a story there—but in terms of looking back, I have no shame.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Palmer speculated on what the character would be up to in 2026, saying True is now “probably the head of Mad Style.”
“She is curating spaces, and she’s being just the boss like she really became,” Palmer added. “She understands what she gave up in her years of being focused as a career woman and building this legacy for herself, so she’s now dealing with having to go back and understand the spaces in which she was not cultivating—whether that’s love or friendships or just things that started to run when you’re out there chasing your dream and being ambitious. She’s going to revisit that part of herself that she kept deferring.”
Palmer currently stars in the film, I Love Boosters, which she said in another recent interview reminded her of her turn as True.
