He Had an AMEX Black Card at 14 – Keke Palmer Reveals Shocking Story
Imagine hanging out with your friends as a teenager when someone casually pulls out a card most adults will never own in their lifetime — an American Express Black Card.
That’s exactly what happened to actress Keke Palmer, and the internet can’t stop talking about it.
During a recent interview, Keke shared a hilarious and jaw-dropping memory from her teen years. She recalled spending time with fellow child actor Tyler James Williams when something unexpected happened.
“We were kids,” Keke said. “And he just pulled out a Black Card like it was nothing.”
Yes — that Black Card.
The exclusive credit card is typically reserved for ultra-wealthy individuals and celebrities, often requiring massive spending and an invitation from American Express. For a 14-year-old to have access to one? Completely unheard of.
So how did he have it?
According to Keke, the card actually belonged to Tyler’s parents, but he carried it with full confidence — and used it like a pro. No hesitation. No nervousness. Just straight boss energy.
The moment left Keke stunned.
“I was like… wow. This is a different life,” she laughed.
Fans React
