<p>It&#8217;s been 16 years since actors <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/keke-palmer-says-this-sex-advice-from-whoopi-goldberg-improved-everything/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Keke Palmer</a> and <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/?s=Angela+Bassett&;post_type=post" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Angela Bassett</a> graced the same big screen. Nonetheless, fans haven&#8217;t forgotten their undeniable chemistry, showcased through their mother-and-daughter relationship in <em>Akeelah and the Bee</em>. Nor can they forget Palmer&#8217;s stunningly impressive impersonation skills of Bassett.</p>

<p>The 29-year-old showed off her talent on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@WIRED" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WIRED</a> and reenacted Bassett&#8217;s performance in <em>The Jacksons: An American Dream</em> and <em>What&#8217;s Love Got to Do with It</em>.</p>
<p>To no one&#8217;s surprise, Palmer killed her impersonation of the 64-year-old and the internet hasn&#8217;t let her escape the astonishing skill since.</p>
<blockquote><p>Wow, that’s a damn good impression. Angela has a bassy tone to her voice and Keke nails the low booming vibe to really nail it.</p></blockquote>
<p> ;</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-size: 1.1em;">Wow, she&#8217;s good. I love Angela&#8217;s voice so much so the fact that Keke can do it is an A+ from me</span></p></blockquote>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Bassett Has Seen Palmer&#8217;s Imitation Videos</h3>
<p>The actors finally reunited in an exclusive sit-down with <a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2022/12/awards-insider-reunited-keke-palmer-angela-bassett" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vanity Fair</a>. Aside from touching on their similar appearance, the pair also addressed Palmer&#8217;s impersonation of Bassett.</p>
<blockquote><p> I&#8217;ve seen you online&#8230; You do a great job&#8230; A friend of mine in DC, she sent it to me. I didn’t know what it was, it was on Instagram or something. And I looked and of course, it was like, hearts, hearts, hearts, hearts. I love it. I adore it.</p></blockquote>
<p>Palmer replied, saying that the skill is one of her &#8220;most notable impressions.&#8221; One, that she only used to do for <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/celebrity-queen-latifah/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queen Latifah</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>I just recently started doing it online and everything but whenever we worked together — I did it for her one time and she&#8217;d be &#8216;Do Angela, do Angela.&#8217;</p></blockquote>
<p>Bassett then had to see it for herself.</p>
<blockquote><p>Okay, so Keke&#8230; we are here together. You&#8217;re finally here. I don&#8217;t have to watch you online. I can actually see it right here before me. Don&#8217;t be shy — you&#8217;re not shy at all.</p></blockquote>
<p>Palmer enacted her impersonation of Bassett in <em>The Jacksons: An American Dream</em>. Bassett even chimed in.</p>
