Raven-Symoné reacts to her most iconic roles throughout the years and talks possible 'Cheetah Girls' reunion.

[@sidnisera]

“I was the *youngest,* black female to have a show named after her” AN ICON. And the show is STILL funny to this day.

She is the Beyoncé of Disney and always made her mark in the acting industry. She’s a legend overall 👏🏽

[@user-dv3kq3rm4h]

When both her and Beyonce were younger, they kind of favoured to me- like sisters or cousins. I noticed it in some of those preteen shots of Raven, she looked like Beyonce in the early Destiny's Child days.

[@Callaita5]

Too bad they abused her

[@andydv27]

Raven will always be a legend. That's So Raven was the first show I saw her in and just loved it. That's So Raven is still a show that I watch to this day. The Cheetah Girls is something that all of us Disney fans still love!! The movies were always the best!! The music of these films were just incredible. It would be so fun to see where The Cheetah Girls would be at right now and what they did with their lives.

[@JulyMoon82]

She has such a good voice.

[@orangeradishneo]

What I loved about raven as a character in that’s so raven, was that she was a well rounded person who wasn’t just her surface level appearances. At the time raven was considered “fat” by society’s standards, but it wasn’t her main storyline. She had maybe 1 episode focusing on her weight. She got the hot guy, she had good friends, and was a great personality. She was the only main character as a plus size AND/OR black woman in the mid 2000s children’s show that I know of that didn’t reinforce stereotypes and even educated people on topics like racism, without it being too in your face.

[@JAIME_JOSH_STAN]

Raven is so damned iconic , I’m glad she was part of my childhood

She needs a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

I don’t think she had the best experience, as far as production and such. I seen where she was referring to it on The Lawrence Brothers podcast, slightly hinted that she was happy when it ended. But yes that’s my show too, glad it’s on streaming.

@@marcosmith4764 I remembered that they confused with how her character was supposed to look, originally she was supposed to be plus size but Raven had lost weight so they changed it. But it was good to see her in an Adult comedy for a change

I don't care about any celebrities but I had to watch this because she actually seems like the coolest person. She has helped me find comfort in the darkest moments of my life. I recently lost my mom and her shows have made me able to smile and laugh again when it seems impossible. She needs to know how important she is and how much her presence changed the lives for the better of so many people!

raven will always be an icon , I grew up watching thats so raven . I was a kid (7-8 yrs old) and loved every episode . occasionally I will look up old episodes on KZbin and still laugh , it was just so damned funny .I still listen to the cheetah girls and other disney bops now and then because they were so good. Raven and many others are part of my childhood and I'm glad they got the chance to act and loved it. I know disney is appealing to a newer generation but I feel like they should bring back that comedy like they had then in the early 2000s, im 23 now and still think about thats so raven and Hannah Montana , as well as other shows because they were again just so damned funny.
