KEKE PALMER ('AKEELAH & THE BEE') LANDS LEAD ROLE IN NEW NICKELODEON SERIES.

Akeelah and the Bee star Keke Palmer has scored the lead role in Nickelodeon's new live-action pilot True Fashion, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The project, described as Big meets The Devil Wears Prada, centers on a 15-year-old (Palmer) tapped to head the teen division of a major fashion label. She has a passion for fashion but soon learns that corporate life has the same highs and lows as high school, complete with cliques and mean girls -- but also with such cool perks as designing for up-and-coming rock stars and casting cute models.

Palmer, who pocketed an NAACP Image Award for her Akeelah role, will next be seen on the big screen in The Longshots. Based on a true story, the movie stars Palmer as the first female quarterback in Pop Warner football history.
