Usher has offered his support for Keke Palmer after her boyfriend publicly shamed the sultry outfit she wore at the singer's concert.
Over the weekend, the 29-year-old Nope actress donned a risqué sheer black dress that exposed her bodysuit underneath at the R&B hitmaker's Las Vegas residency.
In a viral video posted on social media, Palmer can be seen embracing the 44-year-old 'My Boo' vocalist as he sang his track 'There Goes My Baby' to her in the VIP section.
The pair were spotted dancing together, and the former Nickelodeon star even gave the Grammy-winning star a little twirl to show off her sultry look.
Palmer's boyfriend, Darius Jackson - who is the father of her four-month-old son - was not pleased with her revealing ensemble as he wrote in a now-deleted tweet: "It’s the outfit tho... you a mom."
Safe to say, the 29-year-old was immediately slammed by the actress' fans who pointed out that he didn't have to embarrass her on a public platform, and should've addressed the issue in private.
However, despite being heavily criticized on the social media platform, the fitness instructor continued to stand by his words as he later wrote in another deleted tweet: "We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is."
"This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case," he added.
The father-of-one also responded to a fan who empathized with him and advised him to keep his thoughts away from Twitter as people aren't "rational" on the social media platform.
Unlike her beau, the Hustlers actress did not publicly call out her baby daddy for his comments. Instead, she took to Instagram to throw subtle shade by sharing more pictures of her outfit from Usher's concert.
She captioned the post: "I wish I had taken more pictures but we were running late! I am telling y’all right now, if you haven’t seen @usher YOU MUST GO!! HE WAS SO FABULOUS!! Giving theater, Atlanta downnn, tips and tricks and just absolutely iconic."
"I was truly inspired as a performer. I whooped some a** in spades too! Where is that pic of us all together with the King himself??", she added.
The 'Yeah' musician himself shared a supportive comment to Palmer, simply writing: "The Big Boss!! Thank U for coming."
Palmer and Jackson first met back in 2021 at a Memorial Day party and went Instagram official by August. Two years later, they announced on the social media platform that they had welcomed a baby boy named Leodis Andrellton Jackson.
According to BuzzFeed, the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram, before Jackson deleted his Instagram account and Twitter on Thursday (July 6).
