Keke Palmer and Sean Evans Spark Chemistry on Podcast Episode

Keke Palmer had Sean Evans, the host of the popular YouTube series Hot Ones, stop by her podcast Baby, This Is Keke Palmer for a new episode that aired Tuesday, May 26.

The 32-year-old performer and Evans, who previously appeared on each other's shows, kept the flirtation alive during the conversation. Palmer opened the episode by introducing Evans as a "potential future suitor."

During their chat, Evans revealed that his celebrity crush growing up was TLC member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. Palmer, who played Chili in the CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story film, joked about the connection. "Close enough," Evans responded to her quip.

When Palmer asked what made her a good guest for Hot Ones, Evans complimented her extensively. "You're obviously very charismatic, you're smart, you're beautiful," he said. He went on to praise her interview style, noting how she balances thoughtful commentary with humor and personal anecdotes from her career.

"But then also too, I think that we all give off like kind of gigawatt frequencies, you know, like sometimes they just naturally match with people," he added.

The conversation turned to their previous on-camera kiss, with Evans reflecting on the public reaction. "I just got a lot of like that's my dog," he said. "It was great for my stock."

Palmer agreed the moment resonated. "It was great for me as well," she said, predicting audiences would be eager to see them together again.

The episode concluded with a game of Twister, with Palmer's mother posing dating questions as the two played. Her mom reflected on the moment afterward, saying it represented how life should be. She referenced their hometowns, noting the connection between "the guy from Crystal Lake" and "the girl from Robins."

Palmer then gave a shout-out to Evans' parents, prompting a playful response from Evans about the comment.
