KeKe Palmer Joins Fox’s “Grease Live”

Keke Palmer is always making major moves.

Wednesday, it was announced that the 21-year-old beauty has been cast to appear in FOX’s “Grease: Live.” According to Entertainment Weekly, Palmer will be playing the role of Pink Lady Marty, previously portrayed by Dinah Manoff in the 1978 film. Actresses Vanessa Hudgens and Julianne Hough have also been cast to star in the live musical.

It seems that Palmer would be a perfect fit for the role especially since she has quite a bit of musical experience under her belt. Last winter, she starred in Roger + Hammerstein’s Cinderella on Broadway alongside Nene Leakes and Sherri Shepherd.

In addition to appearing in the live musical, Palmer is set to appear in the network’s upcoming killer-comedy “Scream Queens,” which is scheduled to debut this fall. She is also gearing up for season two of her popular BET talk show “Just Keke.”

“Grease: Live” is scheduled to air on FOX in January.
