As for Jackson's aforementioned criticism, he went viral for complaining on Twitter that Palmer showcased her "booty cheeks" at Usher's Vegas residency. “We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is. This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case," he wrote at the time. The couple reportedly briefly split before reconciling at Palmer’s 30th birthday party.
