Awkward moment for Keke Palmer at SXSW ... she was doing a panel for her new movie when a man in the crowd approached the stage and asked her to marry him ... and it's all on video.
TMZ obtained footage of the super awkward proposal ... the guy is sitting in the front row and then he walks to the edge of the stage, drops to one knee and proposes.
Keke looks shocked and stunned ... ditto for the rest of her "I Love Boosters" costars who were also on stage ... including Demi Moore, Naomi Ackie and Eiza Gonzalez.
The actress plays it cool and calmly tells the man she can't marry him ... because she doesn't know him. Overall, Keke's pretty nice about denying him.
The proposal seemed to drag on forever ... the guy remained on bended knee as security was slow to escort him out ... and he eventually is physically removed from the area.

President Trump just confirmed he really did break up a fight involving Kobe Bryant back in the day ... telling Jake Paul it probably wasn't a smart thing to do -- but it worked out in the end.
POTUS sat down with El Gallo for just under half an hour while they were in Kentucky for a rally this week ... and they talked about a number of topics like the war in Iran, the 2024 assassination attempt, Jake's boxing success and even his possible political career.
At one point, Jake asked Trump if he had ever been in a fight himself ... which led to the longtime rumor that he had a role in a scrap involving the late NBA legend in 1998.

Laken later responded in the chat -- just before 9 AM -- that she passed out and fell, causing the noise. After leaving the house, her roommates told cops they went to her room and found a deceased baby in a bag in the closet.

Scary scene inside the wrestling ring Thursday night in Kentucky ... when a referee suffered a medical emergency after taking a brutal hit during the match, which his girlfriend says resulted in a brain injury.
It all went down during a "four corners of chaos" match, when wrestler Brendan Balling made his way up to the top rope, ready to hit opp Tony Evans with a move. Evans, however, grabbed the ref and pushed him into Balling's path instead, sending him crashing to the mat.
A referee had a legitimate seizure at OVW and he was just dragged and kicked out of the way so the match could continue until someone ran into the ring to check on him.
The ref -- identified as Dallas Edwards -- hit his head hard. Balling checked on him, but instead of the match stopping, the guys continued. Edwards remained down, and at one point, started convulsing, in a super scary scene.

Sinema says she and Ammel became "romantic and intimate" in late May 2024 ... engaging in physical intimacy for the first time on May 27 in Sonoma, California ... adding that they were also physically intimate in New York City, Washington, D.C., Aspen and Phoenix in subsequent months.
