Keke Palmer Nabs Role In Fox’s ‘Scream Queens’

Fresh from her run on Broadway, Keke Palmer has already lined up another job! Keke has joined Fox’s comedy horror anthology, Scream Queens. Keke will star alongside Glee’s Lea Michelle, True Blood hunk Joe Manganiello, and Abigail Breslin. The announcement came during Fox’s presentation at the Television Critics Association’s (TCA) winter press tour on Saturday. According to the network, the 15-episode hour long first season will center around a string of murders on a college campus. Pop diva Ariana Grande has also signed to guest star in a recurring role. Should be an interesting set with Lea and Ariana together since word on the street is Lea and her Glee co-star Naya Rivera don’t get along and Ariana is with Naya’s ex-Big Sean… To be a fly on that wall…
