It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since the premiere of True Jackson VP on Nickelodeon.
If you don’t remember, the show starring Keke Palmer, Ashley Argota and Matt Shively, focused on True, a sandwich sales girl, who was offered a dream job as vice president in charge of Mad Style’s youth apparel line.
“We kind of had the chemistry right away, but, of course, during the course of us working together, we became even more in tune and even more able to play off each other and kind of get where the other’s gonna go with something,” Keke revealed in a new interview with IBT, about her chemistry with Ashley and Matt.
She added, “Our bond just increased over time. Ashley and I, we had most of our stuff together, and we became very, very close by the end of the show.
“Ashley and I were both girls and about the same age, and he [Matt] was kinda getting ready to be an adult and leave his family house…So, we were at two different cross-points, but I think that was also a big part of our relationship, as well, because we could learn from each other.”
As for a possible reboot or reunion, Keke says that it all depends.
“For the kids that were watching the show, I could see myself doing something for them, but it would definitely have to be more mature,” she shared. “‘Cause I do think that’s an important thing to give to your audience, too.”
“If you do something that you did before, in a current way, you really gotta make it current…I would want it to be more [mature] because she’s 25 now.”
