She contested both the 2003 Miss Commonwealth Nigeria beauty contest and 2004 Most Beautiful Girl Nigeria beauty pageant.

After the contract of Genevieve Nnaji expired as a Lux ambassador, Kehinde was chosen along with Sylvia Udeogu and Olaide Olaogun to become the new face of Lux in 2007.

She made her acting debut during her reign as Lux ambassador in the family drama Super Story: Everything it Takes and has gone on to appear in movies like Two Brides and a Baby, The Meeting, Awakening and Render to Caesar.
