Keke Palmer recalled her time on the "Scream Queens" set and remembered a moment with co-creator Ryan Murphy after taking a day off.

The Emmy award-winning star is set to release a memoir titled Master of Me: The Secret to Controlling Your Narrative, which recalls the incident with Murphy.




According to the Los Angeles Times, Palmer writes in her memoir she was given the shooting schedule and arranged to do something on her day off. However, on the day she took off, production told her she had to be on set but when Palmer didn’t oblige to fulfill her prior obligation, things got heated.

Palmer wrote in her memoir that she received a call from Murphy in which he “ripped” into her, with the actor adding, “It was kind of like I was in the dean’s office. He was like, ‘I’ve never seen you behave like this. I can’t believe that you, out of all people, would do something like this.'”




Although Palmer apologized and cleared things up with Murphy, one of her co-stars had a different take on the situation when she returned to the set.

“I said, ‘Ryan talked to me and I guess he’s cool, it’s fine,’ and she was like, ‘It’s bad,’ trying to make me scared or something, which was a little irritating,” Palmer wrote.




Working with Murphy, Palmer had hoped to be one of his frequent collaborators, like Sarah Paulson and Emma Roberts, but due to this incident, she felt like things soured.

“I’m still not sure Ryan cared, or got it, and that’s okay because he was just centering his business, which isn’t a problem to me,” she wrote. “But what I do know is even if he didn’t care, and even if I never work with him again, he knows that I, too, see myself as a business.”
