Keke Palmer and Dan Schneider Controversy

Keke Palmer and her mother Sharon Palmer discussed the troubling atmosphere on Nickelodeon sets run by Dan Schneider on Keke's podcast, Baby, This is Keke Palmer. Sharon described the environment as 'very weird' and 'very cultish,' noting that parents were secretive and overly serious about their children's careers. They reflected on the allegations in the docuseries Quiet on Set, which detailed misconduct by Schneider and the sexual abuse of Drake Bell by acting coach Brian Peck. Despite the unsettling atmosphere, Sharon emphasized that not all child actors had negative experiences on Nickelodeon. The discussion also highlighted Keke's success beyond Nickelodeon, viewing it as just a stepping stone in her career.
