Did a plate of pizza just add fuel to Hollywood’s favourite slow-burn romance rumour?
Fans are once again playing detective after Hot Ones host Sean Evans and actress Keke Palmer were spotted sharing what appeared to be a cozy dinner at Brooklyn celebrity hotspot Lucali on June 12.
According to photos circulating online, the pair spent roughly 90 minutes together, looking completely engaged in conversation.
No hand-holding, no dramatic public displays of affection – just two people seemingly enjoying each other’s company.
Still, that was enough to send the internet into full investigation mode.
The latest sighting comes months after the duo’s now-famous on-screen kiss during Palmer’s Hot Ones appearance. In the viral moment, Palmer surprised Evans by suggesting they test their chemistry in real time.
“And then there’s one more thing I’d like to say, Sean,” Palmer said.
“Because 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’ve just had some wings, but I thought that maybe we could just have a quick smooch to see if there’s a spark.”
After the kiss, Evans joked, “When I’m dying and my life flashes before my eyes, I’ll have that snapshot.”
The chemistry rumours did not start there. Evans previously admitted he had a soft spot for Palmer, calling her a “Very charming. Very charming woman.”
Palmer’s response? Pure Keke.
“It was love at first hot wing — this was too kind @seanseaevans,” she wrote.
Whether this is a friendship, a flirtation, or the beginning of Hollywood’s most unexpected romance remains a mystery. But one thing is clear: fans are watching this story closer that the final wing on Hot Ones.
