Keke Palmer & Darius Jackson Celebrate Leodis’ First Easter In Heartwarming New Photos

by

With each and every milestone her son crosses, Keke Palmer steps more confidently into her newfound role as a mother. While bringing life into the world certainly breathes a certain air into a woman, as does the “new body” the 29-year-old is flaunting in the weeks after welcoming little Leodis. She didn’t hesitate to flaunt her curvaceous figure on Instagram earlier this week, markedly thanking her baby boy for giving her the chest, hips, and booty of her dreams after nine months of pregnancy.

Elsewhere on social media, Palmer was celebrating the Easter holiday this past weekend, along with plenty of other celebrities. For the first time ever, she and her boyfriend Darius Jackson had a little one to spoil, though the 6-week-old seems to have slept through most of the festivities. On Sunday (April 9), the former child star’s feed lit up with some heartwarming snapshots featuring her man and their son, the entire family sporting seemingly coordinated looks in various shades of brown. “Happy Easter🐣,” Keke wrote in her short and sweet caption. “Blessing to all! He has risen 🙏🏾😍.”

Happy Easter from the Jackson-Palmer Family

The upload’s first photo sees all three of the Jackson-Palmers posing for the camera. In image number two, the family matriarch poses alone with her little boy, whose tiny feet are kept warm in a pair of adorable fuzzy boots. Since his birth, there’s not much about Leodis’ life we haven’t heard about. Unlike other famous parents, the Chicago-born entertainer has been incredibly forthcoming throughout her journey, even vulnerably admitting to feeling as though she’s getting “cooked” from time to time.

Throughout it all, however, Keke Palmer maintains a graceful and gracious attitude, accepting the hurdles as they come and revelling in the good moments. Now that Leodis has made it past the one-month mark, his mother has been able to enjoy more time outside with him, something she warmly spoke about in an IG post last month. “Mommy’ing is coming along if you were looking for an update. I have juggled quite a few careers but this is my greatest gig of all,” the True Jackson VP actress said at the time. Read her full caption for yourself here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Nicki Minaj Poses For Family Photos With Papa Bear & Other Relatives: “3 Generations Of Petty”

by

As of late, Nicki Minaj’s Instagram feed has been consistently lighting up with exciting news regarding her music, not to mention plenty of thirst traps. From teasing her upcoming “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” music video (which finds her flaunting her figure in a sexy black bathing suit) to hinting at the possibility of signing Ice Spice, the Barbz have certainly never been happier to see their Queen making such inspiring moves. On Tuesday (March 21), the mother of one took a break from her usual content to give a glimpse into her family life, which looks incredibly glamorous, to say the least.

The 40-year-old’s photo dump began with an image of her and Kenneth Petty, who she married in 2019. Minaj looked like the ultimate boss in her long, sleek, black leather coat, worn over what looks like a short, sparkly dress. To complete the outfit, she wore larger-than-life round sunglasses and knee-high chrome boots. Petty donned a Canadian tuxedo, pairing a matching denim jacket and jeans combo with a New York hat, a grey Louis Vuitton hoodie, and crisp white sneakers. The couple – who have known each other as friends long before their relationship turned romantic – share one child, known to the world as Papa Bear.

The little one makes an appearance in the second image, being held by his father while Minaj stands close by. She and Petty are sporting different outfits this time, opting for a slightly classier vibe while meeting up with the rap diva’s in-laws. “3 generations of Petty, plus mommy,” the caption of her heartwarming upload reads. “Moments 4 Life 🎀.” As followers scroll through her selection of images, they’ll eventually see 2-year-old Papa Bear happily sitting on his father’s lap, Kenneth’s own dad also hanging out beside them.

As Nicki Minaj’s latest Instagram post nears its end, we see a video of her cheersing a cocktail with her man before letting out a loud, infectious cackle as the camera records. Based on the countless smiles seen throughout, a good time was had by all earlier this week. Keep scrolling for more heartwarming videos of Papa Bear from his mom’s IG feed, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Keke Palmer & Darius Jackson Match With Baby Leo In Heartwarming New Photos

by

Keke Palmer has spent most of her life in the public eye, from starring in 2006’s Akeelah and the Bee to, more recently, killing her performance in Jordan Peele’s Nope. In late 2022, she announced the exciting news of her pregnancy while hosting Saturday Night Live, and has since gone on to welcome her baby boy with boyfriend Darius Jackson. While some famous faces opt to stay offline in the months after going through such a major life change, the actress has continued to let her personality shine through on her various profiles while chronicling her journey into parenthood.

Earlier this month, the 29-year-old posted an emotional video on Instagram, during which she took a moment to praise any single people raising children by themselves. Even with the help of her partner and other loved ones, Palmer says that she’s been getting “cooked” in the time since she gave birth to Leodis Andrellton. Thankfully, she seems to have a strong support system keeping her sane amidst all the chaos.

Welcome to Motherhood, Keke Palmer

“I just want anybody out there that’s a single parent that’s been doing this – friends of mine, people that I don’t know, family members of mine – it brings tears to my eyes. I am just truly, profoundly impressed,” the former Disney star vented to viewers. “It truly does take a village… Sometimes that’s a privilege,” she additionally acknowledged. Many fans praised Palmer in the comments, thanking her for being so honest through the ups and downs of rearing her child.

In the time since then, the Illinois native appears to be comfortably settling into her life at home with Darius and baby Leo. On Thursday (March 9), she updated fans on her family via Twitter with some heartwarming selfies of them sporting matching pyjamas. While Palmer perfectly twins with her son in what appears to be a moon-print onesie, her boyfriend wears pyjama pants in the same pattern with a light blue t-shirt.

“Thank you @zennioptical for the lewks,” the new mother wrote along with her photo dump. In one of the snapshots, Jackson plants a kiss on Palmer’s head as their son peacefully sleeps on his chest. Though some first expressed their disappointment in Leodis’ unique name, they seem to be warming up to the young boy, who got plenty of compliments on social media.

One person wrote, “Good looks run in the family,” while another added, “Omg, Akeelah now has a little bee.” Elsewhere, trolls poked fun at Darius’ proud dad energy, asking, “Lol… Why is he carrying the child like he’s the one who gave birth?” See Keke Palmer’s cute photos for yourself above, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

DaniLeigh & DaBaby’s Daughter Velour’s Cutest Moments: IG Gallery

by

27-year-old DaniLeigh’s relationship with DaBaby may not have worked out exactly as planned, but it did produce the pair’s adorable 1-year-old daughter, Velour.

In the time since the young girl’s arrival, the “BOOGEYMAN” rapper and his ex have gotten in plenty of public blowouts, one of which even resulted in a bowling alley brawl between Baby and DaniLeigh’s brother, Brandon Bill$. At this time, they appear to have a civil co-parenting arrangement, although Dani didn’t hold back on venting about her feelings about their tumultuous split when sharing her My Side EP in July.

While the 30-year-old is already a father of several other children, Velour is the Miami-born singer’s firstborn, and the pride she clearly has for her little girl shines through all the way down her Instagram feed.

We’ve scoped out DaniLeigh’s social media to find her sweetest mother-daughter moments with her little one – keep scrolling to see the heartwarming photos for yourself.

The “Cravin’” hitmaker’s fans were first introduced to her baby girl at the end of 2021. Currently, the earliest photo of Velour on her mom’s feed was shared in December and sees Dani gushing over the infant’s eyes, smirk, and face. Other uploads from the same month see the baby at her smallest, before she would go on to grow into Leigh’s mini-me.

DaniLeigh took a hiatus from posting for almost the entire first half of 2022, but when May came around, she returned to celebrate her first Mother’s Day in a very public (and adorable) way. The month saw plenty of fun in the sun for the two as well when the entertainer showed off her child’s luxurious Burberry bathing suit and snapped some selfies during golden hour.

Things got busy for the 27-year-old in June as she prepared for the release of her juicy EP, but she still found time in her busy schedule to arrange time for Velour to join her at work in Los Angeles.

She may only be one, but BabyLeigh was still able to assist her mom with her latest project, appearing in both the “Dead To Me” music video and a teaser trailer for the My Side project.

July brought plenty of celebration for DaniLeigh, but once August rolled around, it was Velour’s turn to take over the spotlight. The growing girl celebrated her first birthday on the 12th by cruising around in her own little car to match her mama’s, and when it was time for her party, she spent the day dancing and making memories with her friends and family.

As the summer came to an end, DaniLeigh headed out on the road to our her new music until mid-October. While she’s certainly having fun chasing her dreams, based on a recent IG upload, it’s clear that she’s missing her daughter now more than ever.
