So last night I was just scrollin' on TikTok when I saw this video of Keke Palmer trending on my Discover page.
Aside from Keke's incredible dance moves to the iconic True Jackson, VP theme song, the text in the video jumped out at me: "When they cancelled True Jackson, VP prematurely just to reboot it in 2021."
Hold the phone: Did Keke Palmer just announce that a True Jackson, VP reboot is coming next year???
For those who didn't grow up with the Nickelodeon show, True Jackson, VP starred Keke Palmer as True Jackson, a teen who becomes the vice president of a successful youth clothing line. The series ran for three seasons before ending in August 2011.
So, I naturally peeped the comments, and everyone was thinking ~exactly~ what I was thinking: DO 👏 NOT 👏 PLAY 👏 WITH 👏 US, 👏 KEKE! 👏
And then, Keke raised my hopes even higher when she tweeted, "Congrats! Another reboot! Y'all made this happen."
Congrats! Another reboot! Y’all made this happen 😭🥴💀
We've recently heard rumors of a One Direction reunion, and we've also witnessed virtual reunions featuring the casts of High School Musical and Big Time Rush. So this is no game to me — this could be serious business!
On Twitter, True Jackson and Keke Palmer fans had every reaction imaginable.
Elation:
@KekePalmer TRUE JACKSON IS BACK IN BUSINESS AS IT SHOULD.
@KekePalmer Say same cast right now. Say it
And some skepticism:
@KekePalmer LAUREN KEYANA, DONT PLAY WIT ME!!!! U SERIOUS???!!
@KekePalmer babygirl you’re lying?! tell me you lying
No matter what, the True Jackson theme song best summarizes all my hopes and dreams about this reboot being legit: "From my head to my toes, it's all ~real~, and you know."
