KeKe Palmer “Sorry to this man” 2.0… with Mike Johnson. Mike Johnson is still looking for love after The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise and he wasted no time trying to see if KeKe Palmer was an option. Mike revealed that he went on a date with Demi Lovato, but is now single.
Demi Lovato had no shame in confessing her crush on Johnson during the season of The Bachelorette on social media. She then went to the live show for the finale.
Demi and Johnson then went on a date. Johnson opened up about it saying “I like her tattoos — we both have a lot of tattoos. Demi has more than me. And, uh, she kisses really well,” he said on the podcast, Almost Famous.
He continued, “She definitely was the aggressor, you know, I find it incredibly sexy. I love that, like, ‘Come at me. You want me, come at me.’ I want you, I’m [going to] come at you. I’m coming at her as well.”
This wasn’t a good move and they’re no longer dating after he talked about her. “I’m getting in trouble with my homeboys right now about it,” he told Us Weekly. “I’m learning. I’m still a human being. I’m not perfect. I’ve messed up in the past.”
However, that didn’t stop Mike Johnson from being open about his relationship, and looking for love.
He was on Good Morning America with Keke Palmer when he made a shocking move. “I made a mistake. I don’t like dating in public,” he admitted. “But if I were to ask you if we could go on a date in the public,” he said to Palmer.
The actress certainly looked shocked by Johnson’s question. Now that she had time to consider it she revealed to Strahan and Haines that her answer is no.
“Well, first of all, I get real spooked about entertainers or reality [stars] … I don’t know, it really scares me to date people in the industry. That’s number one,” she said on Good Morning America.
Palmer then gave another reason she decided against it. “Number two, he asked me in front of everybody,” she said. The actress said she felt “ambushed.”
It also made the question seem less serious to her. “I felt like it was a big ol’ gag,” she added. “I felt like I was the gag, I’ve been duped!”
Many fans weren’t happy with Johnson putting Palmer on the spot. He later tweeted about the moment.
“For those with untrue assumptions.. I’m grateful to be in your thoughts… 1. I deflected a question posed to me on my dating life – made a playful comment 2. I love black women too 3. Im happy, those are the vibes,” the reality star tweeted.
