Who would have thought that little "Akeelah and The Bee" would grow up to be so gorgeous and talented?  Now that triple-threat entertainer Keke Palmer, is making her way to Broadway as the first black "Cinderella", the 20-year-old has solidified her place in the leaders of 21st century pop culture.  Earlier this year, she became the youngest talk show host ever as she hosted "Just Keke" on BET.  2014 has been a major year for the young Hollywood star.

To commemorate her almost decade long career, Enstars gathered a few of her gorgeous (and painfully adorable) red carpet moments to show fans just how far she has come since her big break in 2005.  

Congrats to Keke Palmer, it's been a joy seeing you shine!
