Keke Palmer, one of our favorite multi-talented Virgos, just turned 31, and she is doing it in true Big Boss style. The young media mogul celebrated her birthday surrounded by friends, family, and, of course, her Internet cousins.
Taking to social media, the Password host shared a series of heartfelt and glamorous posts that highlighted her birthday festivities. “I don’t want to be long I just wanna be clear! I am GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR ANOTHER YEAR!” she wrote on Instagram.
“I’m not here for a long time, but I am here for a community-rich time, and that’s what I have.”
In her first post, Keke dropped two pics that gave a nod to her tribe. To her, these are the people who have had her back through thick and thin. “It’s my birthday, but it’s my community’s birthday too because they are the ones that got me this far,“ she wrote. “We are all alone in this world; we come in alone and go out alone, but what we share is this experience. In that shared experience, we know what it’s like to be one and together, and that community is where God lives.”
