Keke has such a positive impact on the youth. And she could have been like i am making this money and i don’t need to ever to go to college but she is choosing to go to college. Which is great for her and i am very proud of her.

Congrats KEKE! You are such a inspiration to todays youth.

Why doesn’t she use her real name? Keke will sound odd at 40…it’s too cutesy.

I don’t think so…there’s Kiki Sheard, KiKi Shepard, KiKi Dee….

Congrats to KeKe! I wish more black teenagers were like her. She’s a really good girl.

@Julie – there ARE more black teenagers like her. Please don’t let the media fool you. We don’t always hear about the positive achievements in our community, only the negative. Just saying.

That’s true. That story of an black all-male high school senior class 1. graduating from high school and 2. all headed to college didn’t exactly light up the mainstream media.
Let that have been ‘entire black all-male senior class rob and kill shopkeepers’ and it would have been a different matter.

That’s good but it’s not common. Let’s not lie to ourselves. There are a lot of young black girls going to college so I have to say that much.

@Julie – how do you know it’s not common? Just asking.

@Leo – Yep! Those were the ones I was thinking about, and there are many others that just don’t get the shine.

She seems to be such an outstanding young lady and a GREAT role model for our young black girls!

I’m so proud of Keke. She is such a beautiful, inspiring young lady. I wish her the very best in her endeavors.
It’s funny how Nickelodean doesn’t showcase her musical talents like it does Big Time Rush or Maranda Cosgrove. Just a thought.

I don’t even know who those two are.
Flag this
Miranda Cosgrove is from the tv show “i-Carly” and from the movie “School of Rock” with Jack Black and Aleisha from the “Are we done Yet” movie.

@Leo – Big Time Rush is about a boy’s band and Maranda Cosgrove is the star of “iCarly.” Both of these shows are on Nick.

That is true. You see a clip of Miranda’s songs, but not KeKe’s. Interesting. Wonder why that is.
I like Miranda & all, but Jeannette (who plays Sam) makes the show.
Flag this
I agree. Keke sings much better than Miranda does, in my opinion.
I watched Snoopy on ice and one of Keke’s songs were playing in one of the scenes, while Charlie Brown, Lucy and professionals skated, i for one was in shock.

You are right Sam do make that show!!! As for KEKE i used to see her old videos on Nick (briefly) and on MTV for a little time. I have no idea why they don’t -play more of her videos. I bet when Cymphonique Miller (Master Daughter) show comes on Nick in the fall, I bet they will play all of her videos and more.

I am proud of KEKE! She is from my city-Chicago. I am proud that she is going on to college.
Miranda and the twins from Disney (ZACK and Cody) are also going to college. The twins are going to NYU in fal and Miranda is going to a college in Cali in the fall.
I think it is a good saftey net because alot of child stars don’t make it as adult actors unfornately. Only a few. Ben and Fred Savage, Tia and Tamera and Keisha Knight Pulliam (and the Cosby kids) all went. Some are doing really well. So you can still go to school and have a career afterwards if that is in God’s plan.
I wish KEKE the very best!

Beauty and brains!

@Sherley – yeah, they were playing Miranda’s video too death when her album first came out. I agree, Sam does make the show.

Congratulations KiKi. Way to go lady!

I heard her say in an interview that she’s homeschooled, which gives her a little more flexibility in graduating early (not taking away from her shine),but I’m happy for her nonetheless! She always comes across as such a sweetie:)

see it can be done!!! Most celeb kids are just as focused as she is even with the fame they know education is a must and many of the parents feel strongly about their children getting their education 1st and foremost.

Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?
