Keke Palmer's interview with Jonathan Majors was axed because it was deemed "insensitive".

The 31-year-old actress had recorded an episode of her Baby, This Is Keke Palmer podcast with the Magazine Dreams actor to be broadcast in April, but it was pulled following a backlash after Jonathan was found guilty of two misdemeanour counts of harassing and assaulting his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari.

While Keke felt it was important to "have the conversation" with Jonathan, her team ultimately felt it was inappropriate to broadcast the interview.

She told The Breakfast Club: "When I'm doing my hosting, I'm here to be unbiased. Everybody that sits in your chair, you don't agree with everything they did, you don't love everything, but you gotta have the conversation.

"You have to set the stage for them to speak and for people to watch and take what they wanna take from it, so that's why I was open and excited to do the interview.

"Ultimately, with my partners, it was just decided -- they saw the reaction that people felt it was insensitive, that maybe we shouldn't put it out."

The One of Them Days actress pondered that "maybe one day we get a chance" to release the interview.

She added: "It's always there, if people wanted to see it. But I always wanna be respectful and understand where everybody's coming from. If they're not going to feel like they're going to receive anything good from the interview, then okay, cool."

And Keke felt the backlash she faced for giving the Lovecraft Country star a platform was unfair.

She said: "I mean, people sit down with serial killers. I'm not comparing him to a serial killer, but at the end of the day, I felt like, as a journalist, I'm supposed to talk and we're supposed to hear and let the public decide how they want to feel. But that didn't get a chance to happen."

The Nope star wishes Jonathan and his wife Meagan Good "all the best".

She added: "I really wanna say that because I don't judge nobody 'cause I don't want to be judged. So at the end of the day, I'm happy for Meagan. I'm happy for them."
