Usher & Keke Palmer Discuss Infamous Dress She Wore To His Concert That ‘Caused Some Ruckus’ In Her Relationship w/ Ex Darius Jackson

Usher and Keke Palmer recently had a candid conversation about the viral moment when Palmer’s ex, Darius Jackson, publicly criticized her over a dress she wore to Usher’s concert.

The two entertainers discussed the controversy on the latest episode of Baby, This Is Keke Palmer, where Usher made it clear that he takes no responsibility for the drama that followed.

If you recall, Jackson—whom Palmer shares a 1-year-old son, Leo, with—faced major backlash after publicly shaming her on X (formerly Twitter). At the time, he wrote:

“It’s the outfit tho… you a mom.”

Shortly after, Palmer and Jackson split, leading to months of back-and-forth. Their breakup turned even messier when Palmer filed for a restraining order, accusing Jackson of physical and emotional abuse.

However, in recent months, the exes appear to be on better terms. They were even spotted partying together on New Year’s Eve.
