Keke Palmer’s mother is shedding light on her daughter’s experience working with Dan Schnieder on Nickelodeon sets. On a recent episode of Keke’s podcast, “Baby, This Is Keke Palmer,” the two went deep on her experience as a child actress, and the recent revelations in the upsetting, “Quiet On Set” documentary.

As The Root previously reported, “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,” shed light on misconduct and abuse allegations at Nickelodeon in the late 90s and early 2000s. As Variety reported, Palmer told her mother on the episode, “I honestly do remember you having a lot to say about the Dan Schneider sets. I remember you feeling a way about Nickelodeon.”

“My honest opinion is I thought the whole atmosphere of the Dan Schneider set was very weird, very cultish,” Sharon said in response to her daughter. “The parents were very secretive, and I honestly thought they all took themselves way too seriously.”

She also said Nickelodeon was a mere stopping station for her talented daughter. “You didn’t get your start on Nickelodeon or Disney. You were blessed and fortunate enough to work in adult situations and kid situations. My mentality about the entertainment business wasn’t that Disney Channel or Nickelodeon was the end all to be all, but a lot of the parents did,’’ she added.

Palmer even shed light on moments throughout her career when she felt some tried to drive distance between her and her mother. “In my experiences with you in this industry, I had moments where people tried to push us away from each other or try to come in between us,” she said.

“You never would allow that kind of thing to go down. It created tension in our relationship – I definitely felt overly controlled and confined and almost like I was in a prison sometimes. But when I look back, I feel like you were really just being protective of me.”
