Keke took to he Instagram stories to say, "Everytime I go to a set and see 'background features actors' (I don't like the term EXTRAS I personally find it belittling) I get excited because I was one for 2/ 3 years before things worked out for me. And that reminds me of humble beginnings and to always encourage them to keep going, be genuinely kind and that they are doing great. I am very blessed where I am"
Keke recently lost a loved one she says that the pain has built her including everyone that stood and prayed with her every single day till today. She is thankful for them.
Keke has a Showmax movie coming next week Thursday and we are so excited for it.

Talking about the experience on Twitter, she said: “As I said I have a 28min recording of the meeting we had that confirmed my stay as opposed to me being fired...I was paid till Feb only and yet the contract ends in May 2019. I was so confused, highly pregnant, and now without a job. After I had already gotten a new place to stay and sorting out life as my pregnancy came as a surprise," she tweeted.
She also revealed that she was underpaid and said there were attempts to blacklist her.
"...y’all don’t even know half the trauma I went through because of the Ferguson’s because I was pregnant and even before then I was earning below the minimum on two PRODUCTIONS I PLAYED LEAD ON... then I find out they trying to get me blacklisted," she tweeted.
