During her Monday appearance on _The Steve Harvey Show_, the _Scream Queens_ star expressed her anger over Rose’s (Kate Winslet) decision not to share the door she was floating on with Jack — despite the fact that director James Cameron recently [discounted this as a possibility](http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/01/29/james-cameron-on-the-trump-administration-these-people-are-insane.html). “Everybody knows that she should have got up off that \[board\] and shared it with him,” Palmer said. “I’ll never get over that scene — she’s over there looking at him while he’s freezing. It’s been hard to watch a movie of hers since.” Watch the full clip below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4656542/keke-palmer-mad-titanic/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4656542/keke-palmer-mad-titanic/"},"headline":"KeKe Palmer Getting Mad About Rose Letting Jack Die in Titanic Is All of Us","datePublished":"2017-02-01T17:33:19.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:40:40.574Z","description":"\"I'll never get over that scene\"","url":"https://time.com/4656542/keke-palmer-mad-titanic/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","titanic","Kate Winslet","Leonardo DiCaprio","TV"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4656542/keke-palmer-mad-titanic/","name":"KeKe Palmer Getting Mad About Rose Letting Jack Die in Titanic Is All of Us"}}]}] ```
