Not many can take on the role of Whitney Houston in a biopic, but one Twitter user drew comparisons between Keke Palmer and the late singer, and now the actress wants dibs on the role.
The Twitter user said Houston and Palmer “act exactly the same.”

Viewers marveled at the spot-on comparison.
“The video literally didn’t need to have Keke in it to SEE her in it. I can’t believe I never noticed this shit,” one user wrote.

Palmer entered the chat, asking her fans to help her manifest the role.
“Let’s get the movie made y’all. I’m ready to ACK, let’s weep in the theaters,” she wrote.
