\u201cWe\u2019re back together again,\u201d quipped the 32-year-old<\/a> as Evans introduced the latest installment of the digital series released on Monday (Sept. 15).<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t quit you,\u201d bashfully responded the interviewer.<\/p>\n

In the program, which lasts just over 22 minutes, the NOPE star discussed Eddie Murphy gassing her up, how she is perfect for old school American Idol, and more, according to the official description on YouTube. Towards the end, she flirtatiously confronts Evans for his past confession of having a crush on the actress.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then there\u2019s one more thing I\u2019d like to say, Sean,\u201d started Palmer, \u201cbecause I saw an interview where you said, like, I was your favorite guest, you know, and all this really sweet stuff. And I know we\u2019ve just had some wings, but I thought that maybe we could just have a quick smooch to see if there\u2019s a spark.\u201d<\/p>\n

Evans agrees to the kiss, and the two pucker up.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I\u2019m dying and my life flashes before my eyes, I\u2019ll have that snapshot,\u201d confessed Evans.<\/p>\n

Evans first shared his adoration for the Chicago-bred actress during an appearance on Amelia Dimoldenberg\u2019s\u00a0Chicken Shop Date in November 2023. Dimoldenberg asked Evans if he had \u201cever had a crush on a guest,\u201d before he eventually identified Keke Palmer as the \u201cVery charming woman.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was living for it,\u201d reacted the multihyphenate at the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot to say that I was surprised or I wasn\u2019t surprised,\u201d she added. \u201cBut when I heard it and people were sending it to me, I was like, \u2018I knew the vibes were vibing.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
