i like her!

smokey!!! u beat me.. damm*t… LOL…

She’s grown into a beautiful woman!!

does anybody read jet magazine???

I can’t remember the last time I have picked one up,

but its a pretty quick read, 5 pages and you at the

back cover!

TV Guide is longer then this….i think

RAVEN IS MY WIFEY

http://WWW.MYSPACE.COM/THAGRINDAHOLIC

CHECK THA NEW TRACK

“MENTAL RELAXATION”

@ SMOKEY I AGREE…I DON’T KNOW THE LAST TIME JET WAS PICKED UP BY ME. PROBABLY IN THE EARLY 1990′s OFF OF SOMEONE’S COFFEE TABLE.

I LOVE HER…AND I AM HAPPY THAT SHE SAID THIS. CUTE TITLE FOR THE TOUR!

pajama party tour, careful R.Kelly might buy out the

entire front row

I read Jet just for the Beauty of the week LOL

Jet magazine is a staple in any black barbershop

oh SMOK.E.Y. good one..

I see her little girl Cosby face in this photo.

Luv Ms. Raven.

Considering that she’s worth $400 million. I highly doubt that she is close to broke and need to change her image to sell CD’s.

Good for her, good for her … that’s a great attitude. What a great role model for young people.

But y does she look like something’s funny? Give us a real smile baby!

and yall are some right about the Jet magazine! I haven’t read one in years. I used to enjoy it. I don’t know what happened. Oh well.

a SWEET CHEEKS AND SMOKEY

GOOD DAY TO YA’LL HOW YA LIVIN?

I LOVE RAYVEN SHE DOESNT HAVE TO CHANGE FOR NO ONE YOU DON’T SEE THAT CONFIDENCE IN HOLLYWOOD. AND SHE DOESN’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HER RECORD SALES SHE IS A MOGUL

This is a great example of how being over weight makes you look older. She does not look 22yr old, more like 34. Nia long and Gabby look younger.

rememeber the olivia days and what eva her name was on mr cooper

She’s pretty, but that’s not an attractive picture of her. Too much weave.

Raven is pretty and voluptous….but she got a high waist or square hips or sumn’ about her shape not quite right…

She needs to put on some pants

PLEASE DON’T HATE ON HER

THAT WOMAN RIGHT THERE IS WORTH 400MILLION+

“Considering that she’s worth $400 million. I highly doubt that she is close to broke and need to change her image to sell CD’s.”

Exactly – why switch up the formula now? It’ll be a long time before we see her on When the Checks Stop Coming in?

I thought her pajama tour was postponed? Anywho, I actually like her music that I’ve heard so far. Another blog has snippets of it, and it sounds good. I like Raven and her confidence. I don’t think this is cute cover for her though…her face looks funny.

i can honestly say am very proud of her she came a long way my daughters love her so much. I cant even count how many child stars from back in the day made it to wear she is. keep up the good work!!!

I still read JET… I think Raven is doing good things by not comprising herself.

She looks good from the neck down… and those are real cute shoes….

She needs to work on that smile..she looks like the Joker from Batman.

cant stand that goofy awkward smirk- Im sure there were better proofs for this cover… That aside, Raven has a built in following amongst the beeny boppers, she doesnt need to switch it up cause she carved out her market segment and she’d be a fool to try and target an entirely new demographic than the one she currently has uncontested… She aint vying with Bey, Rhi, Fanny or none of these other pop artist. Too, while the Disney chics she does contend with drop off and get swallowed up in going after pop success {britney, christina,lindsay, miley,jessica, mary-kate & ashley etc.} these girls are hott for a minute and then they become doped out, sexxed up, knocked up, divorcee basket cases, Raven is staying right where she is, where the checks are coming in!! She is only 22 and a selfmade brand- slow and steady wins the race- she’ll outlast all these washed up broads and her $$ is long already!!

OK she need to grow up just a little…and pj party tour WTF…AND IS IT JUST ME OR DONT SHE LOOK LIKE CATS ON THAT COVER…

God bless all my regulars who ain’t here unfortunately. I’m not coming back. Not even to look at the celeb news. This site is trash. Be easy.

Why does she look like DR EVIL. and Hitler’s baby, raven dont need to loose wieght but she need to work on her body she shape like a box

can’t hate on someone who is confident in who she is and making it work for her….love raven…and she is so right…what happened to good decent music….most of the music that is being played on urban radio stations is all the same…

THAT F*CKING C*NT NEEDS TO GO ON WEIGHT WATCHERS, WHO SHE TRYIN TO FOOL?? AT LEAST START SMOKING CIGARETTES, ANYTHING TO GET THE WEIGHT OFF!! HEFFER!!!!

@ the haters on this post

u guys praise rhianna and beyonce, but not raven? she is doing her thang and representing african american females at the highst level and respect. i love beyonce and rhianna, but raven gets more from me because she doesnt let it all hang out or perform like she doing s&m shows.

its because of the haters on here that there is a divide in our race….smh

Shawnie

That comment was soooooooooo ignorant. Believe it are not some people are comfortable being bigger than a size 2.I commend her on her ability to be a child star and still remain respected.Learn from her don’t tear her down. Your comment is what lead to eating disorders.

I think she looks nice the way she is.

cosign Ms K @ shawnie

I love Raven she’s beautiful yet she’s so underrated compared to other Disney girls such as Miley Cyrus or Hilary Duff.

I like Raven – she should continue to lead and not follow!

Go Olivia!

I’m sorry, but Raven has a terrible voice and should stick to acting. She looks so matronly in the face and body, for such a young age. Like she is forty years old or something.

Raven will remain in her own lane because she true to who she is! If we are to be successful in anything in life we have to remain true to who we are. Raven makes more money away from music, so its not like other artist who sell out because they need their albums to sell so they can eat. Raven is going to be ok and she got there for being true to who she is! I am happy to see a woman who looks like me for a change!

YOU GO GIRL!

YOU GOT MILLIONS!

SO WHO CARES WHAT OTHER SMALL MINDED PPL HAVE TO SAY!

As a parent of a daughter, I’m very pleased to hear this and hope Raven’s music is successful. I’m tired of seeing 13 year old girls dance around to music with constant references to big asses and strippers.

Look at little Olivia all grown up. Do your thing ma

I think she looks great. As long as you are comfortable in your skin thats all that counts

When did she become Symoné??Is she trying to become all sophisticated now? I always knew her as RAVEN SIMONE. Whateves, she still cute, and positive. when we’re looking

She has grown to be a beatutiful and successful young woman

ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?

^ beautiful

She’s going to sell. Her Disney fan base is through the ROOF… that’s who this CD is marketed towards anyway.

Yuck, that broad looks like a baby thundercat.

Shes pretty, but i’d still make her lose 40lbs, keep the big ass titties, dirty her up a lil, then send her back to Disney to bring home that “Hannah Montana” type money!

I think Jet is for folks 65+ Come on…Beauty of the Week? Almost all of those women volunteer, and love to skii, but NEVER mention their careers.

I CANNOT BELIEVE SOMEONE SUGGESTED SHE SMOKE TO LOSE WEIGHT. WHAT KIND OF COONERY?? IGNORANT B*TCH!

Rave looks plastic surge. photo shop no. def some plastic up in there. what what

She made the majority of her money from that squeaky clean image a la the Olsen twins. She’d be crazy to go against it now.

her last album wasn’t spectacular in sales and she still singing the same tune…I think she’s one of the few that will stand her ground and still make that money!!!!

I LOVE RAVEN U GO HEAD GIRL!!!!!!!

She was on Cosby hundred years ago but people talk about her music career..Can anyone name some songs that Raven-Symoné has done? What exactly is she famous for nowadays?

We should respect individuality.i think she is beautiful because she has her own individuality.you guys want to see more wonderful pictures, this is a wonderful place you should go. m i l l i onairechats.c o m

“but its a pretty quick read, 5 pages and you at the

back cover!”

LOL, that is so TRU Smokey…I can’t remember the last time I read a JET Mag…Hell at one point I thought they stopped publishing them….LOL

Anyway, I can’t even hate on Raven. I love that fact that she will remain true to herself and she’s aware that her music may not relate to the type of audience that she want it too, but hey, as she said in her song, “She’s still getting that doe.” So don’t SELL OUT if it’s not going 2 SELL.

I LOVE RAVEN!!!!!!!!! I like how she didnt have 2 sell out in order to get her 400 mil.

@ Shay Shay, LOL, Some ppl take bloggin to seriously, their hearts are in it! LOL

@ MDADDY, What up big bro! How you doin today???

i like Raven, however this picture is NOT flattering- neither is that curtain dress

Raven is a gorgeous girl, not caught up in the anorexia beauty fad, or cocaine, or having to call the pap’s everytime she goes to starbucks like a lot of those big headed celebs. She’s authentic and natural (not her hair though,lol) and I like that…

THAT’S A HORRIBLE PICTURE, NO MAKE UP AND HER HAIR LOOKS BAD…SHE REMINDS ME OF SNOOP FROM THE WIRE.

@ Shay Shay, who MDaddy??

@ Shay, Imma hurt you, whitney houston’s prom dress though?? lol!!! I know that jawn was crazy 70′s!! But I agree just because she’s not a size minus 0 ppl are gonna hate on her, but please believe that chick is makin MONEY!

@ Shay Shay, LOL!! That IS cute! F.B.I…..Matter fact where did his ass go?? LOL!

I’ve been waiting FOREVER for Raven to “grow up” and let the puppies out. She is my type pretty much all the way. And I was like “what are you still doin that young sh!t for?”

But one day i heard about her 400 million. THATS why. Why compete in a crowded field of scandalousness when that squeaky clean game rakes in the dough?

So, I’m still kinda mad at her for keepin the racks under wraps, but I am proud she is sticking to what is apparently a lucrative long term career plan. just wait. she’ll be a mogul in 10-15 years

@ Shay Shay, I’m upset, gotta tell u something, i’m e-mailing you now.

She fat, overweight, however you want to say it. It does not portray a good, healthy image to young people who look up to her. For some reason being fat is seen as some kind of “right”, or “nobody is going to tell me different”…why is being fat something people get defensive about?…it’s not good to eat to much and not exercise…it leads to illness that can all be avoided through a better diet. It’s about health, not identity or attitude.

That’s messed up man. You guys on the West got it bad dawg.

I am sort of scared of Chicago anyhows simply because everyone i know who has been there got either shot or robbed or car jacked, nothing against chi-town but i am a regular guy and gangster scare the hell out of me, but i hope no one is hurt because earthquakes dont care how tough you are.

@Brooklyn, Stand UP!

See there 2 major fault lines, The San Andreas and Hayward that triggers our quakes. The Bay Area is right on the Haywad fault so we when they hit, they HIT!!!!

Raven is so refreshing! I love her!!!!

Keep doin your thang…no need to sell out!

@Brooklyn, Stand UP!

That’s messed up man. You guys on the West got it bad dawg.

Hey, she isn’t the only Cosby kid that is doing something with her life. Lil’ Rudy, went to college(Spelman), pledged Delta Sigma Theta and … Ok, well ole’ girl Vanessa went to Veterinarian School, now she’s a Doctor and … Well hell, I bet Theo, and Denise are doing pretty good with their careers. And the older daughter, who nobody ever remembers her name, she maybe still doing well. Hell, Raven is still thick as hell.

@ Anonymous

Chi-Town is a beautiful place (Cold & Windy as Hell) but still beautiful. Sorry your experiences were bad – but don’t knock my city – it’s not as bad as others!!! It was kind of weird to here about the earthquake this morning because that was really uncommon for us in Chicago!

I agree with you Brooklyn, I think i can deal with muggers and crooks, just dont bring me no rapists or child molesters. But heck no no earthquakes at all, but as far as crime i heard in chi-town they had gang leaders like Jeff Fort of the black p stone nation aka el rukins who when he was ruling they marched the hoods to keep the rapist from their women and children.

@Anonymous

That’s how it should be. If your gonna be a pusha-man atleast protect the people in your hood from rape, murder, etc.

She looks like a muppet.

Lush-us-lips… sorry sweetie i am not knocking chi-town , i just have some friends who had bad luck there and it was all bad but Braided Beauty is from there and she gives big ups to her hometown and i cant knock anyone for that! love then Bulls and them Bears, Go White sox and Cubs.

I peer into her future and see her picking up where Aretha Franklin left off. Raven, my dear, you are much too young to carry that kind of weight. Sure you look great now, but don’t way you won’t change because with time that weight gets hard to control. Best of luck, though, if you continue to refuse to change.

Lol, Hey what’s been up??

I’m sorry but I haven’t watch Olivia since the Cosby Show. Is there anything else she’s done that’s worth watching?

she’s not worth 400 million. the Raven franchise may ultimately generate that, but disney owns the franchise. she doesn’t.

u r correct

Jesus Christ!

who in the hell said there was an eartquake in Chicago? and why hasnt anyone remembered that there are no earthquakes in Illinois, they are not on any fault lines, so how in the hell would they have an earthquake?!!! and even if by some bizarre cosmic happenstance, thIS did occur (which it didnt because Im currently in Chicago) it would be a huge National story because it is geographically impossible and unprecedented! WHAT THE HELL ?! DOES NO ONE ELSE RECOGNIZE SUCH IDIOCY?? DAMN I FEEL LIKE IM TAKING CRAZY PILLS THAT IS JUST GAVE ME A HEADACHE IT WAS SOO DAMN SIMPLE!

@ m daddy.. thanks boo! for you thoughts of me and the chi-town earthquake… I knew about it this a m at 3 in the morning.. all my family called and said it shook the whole town and surburbs.. so yes it happened and ther was some trains shut down and a whole lot of crime . but every one id ok ,, nobody got hurt but yes it did happen!!!

I like Raven too. But what is going on with that nose shadow and eye area.. the photoshop artist got her looking like some sort of lion king. And we all know Raven looks better than that.

@Donald R. King, posting as Bones Jordan… eat a fat dick!

Well damn I guess it did happen?! nobody told me about it and I just came..excuse my rant!

@encyclopedia

As an adult(im assuming) you probably wont hear of anything she has done because her demographic is the female “tween”. Disney aged children.. she has books and cd’s that little girls love!!!

@amber86

@ M-Daddy

Lol, Hey what’s been up??

_____________________________________________________

@ Misty KNight .. you are excused!

She is beautiful and I apperciate what she is doing. You don’t have to be a size 2 or have your butt hanging out to be succesful. She should be proud of what she is doing. You look at all the other chicks in the game and they all at one time felt the need to either lose weight (Rhianna, Beyonce, Jenfier Hudson) or have their butt hanging out (Rhianna, Beyonce). I appuld these sisters for doing their thing but its nice to see a new thing. Open doors Raven!!!

Raven is not up incoming she is worth over 400 million where have all you guys been

That chick ain’t hurtin!!!By no means

Raven is so fab. I love that she’s so comfortable with who she is. She is such a great role models to little girls everywhere. Go Raven!

i love Raven!!!

but if her record sales does flop, at least she’ll still have her dignity.

do flop*

I love Raven. She’s worth 400million and didn’t have to dye her hair blonde, change her eye color, open her legs on stage, go out half dressed and over the top, or talk about sex, men cheating and all that regular stuff. I think she looks fine. She’s not even that big. She really just has a huge bustline.

@6am

Actually, that “b**ch,” as you so eloquently called Ms. Raven-Symone, IS making a pile of dollars from her six-figure Disney deals, merchandise, and investments.

This is about a recent Ebony magazine article on Raven:

Raven Symone was featured on the March 2007 issue of Ebony (magazine) Ebony with the title “The $400 Million Dollar Woman” referring to the $400 million that the That’s So Raven merchandise has made. She’s purchased homes in Georgia and California. The article also mentioned that Raven has wisely invested her substantial TV show earnings dating back to her time on The Cosby Show.

From a 2003 story in Fortune magazine:

But the channel’s hottest newcomer is 17-year-old Raven (formerly known as Raven-Symone), who played Bill Cosby’s step-granddaughter in the last three years of the 1984–92 TV series The Cosby Show. (Though Raven’s age would normally make her too old for ‘tweendom, the Disney Channel thinks it can use her for a few years because she appears younger than 17.) Raven was fading into child-star obscurity when Disney decided to build the sitcom That’s So Raven around her. The show debuted last January, and when it became a hit, Disney cast Raven as one of the Cheetah Girls. Now she is shooting a Disney feature called All American Girl and recording songs for another Disney film’s soundtrack. She also joined some ABC stars earlier this month at Disneyland to promote ABC’s newest prime-time lineup. “They’ve given me all this,” says Raven. “I have to give back to them.”

And even if Raven were pulling in a measly (sarcasm) $8-$10 million a year, that’s still a mind-boggling gross for this young woman. Instead of degrading her with your poor use of terminology, you should be praising her highly astute sense of entrepreneurship. That’s Miss “Rich B**ch” to you.

5’2″ and fat. The body fat on that frame ain’t right. U ain’t no fabulously voluptuous, u fat! She got a spongebob body,come on y’all. I think black people elevate her only because she light skin. (Yeah I said it) Where’s Keisha Knight Pulliam a female that’s actually fit/healthy and just as talented. Why doesn’t she get that sort of attention? Oh because her skin is a darker shade of black. On a side note she strikes me as the type of person who thinks she above black people.

I respect Raven, she is a talented individual, however there are some issues i have with her. On interviews she never comes across as if she’s sticking to this “image” because she genuinely loves it. Though it is good that she stays true to herself, I dont think she exactly is. As a 21 year old do you think she really, really, wants to have a “pajama party” tour?? Come on. It’s so sad that these teen stars have to stick to this teeny bopper crowd even though they are past that. What happens is further down the line they end up on a spiral, because their careers can’t get them past that. While I feel it’s good that she represents herself in a good light, that doesn’t mean that she can’t grow up in this world. Just like there is an image of people who are “scandalous”, Raven does to have an image she likes to uphold in the public eye. Though I think it’s good, there’s always something that doesn’t rub me right when certain celebs always portray this “image.” Especially in her case always having to be this certain way, and be stuck in a certain age demographic will take it’s tool.

I am so proud of Raven. I have enjoyed her work for years, and she is an excellent role model. Here she is a rich and famous young lady, yet she has never been involved in any type of scandal, and she appears to have been very well raised. I wish young women like Raven would recieve more attention form the media. It isso refreashing to see a young woman doing things right!

First off, that is a hideous picture of Raven. Ugh. Second, there is a difference between being voluputous and being overweight and unhealthy. Raven could stand to lose a few pounds simply for her health. She’s too fat for her height. She should go to the gym and eat clean. There is no chance in hell she’s working out and eating right and still that heavy.

you go raven.she is sucha inspiration but I also agree with Joyce!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Raven she is Beautiful and Hilarious, and it’s awesome that she wants to talk about positive things. HOWEVER, she does need to lose some weight. I don’t think she need to be STICK figure then b/c that’s certainly not cute but, come on there is no excuse for that. I’m sure many of you will disagree but the bottom line is, if she continues the path that she’s on she will be more susceptible for health problems. I guess this is just my way of saying I love her but: It aint cute.

@Tracey

I was using sarcasm in my post last night in response to Its6amHoGetOut’s reference to Raven as “b**ch.” (his post is above) I’ve never called Raven-Symone any names, and I admire her business sense and commitment to retaining a strong level of dignity in all her endeavors.

I’d bone the hell out of Raven

she reminds me of jasmine guy in this pic lol. but i LOVE raven!!!

seems interesting

I think people really underestimate her show. Thats So Raven is not just a kiddie show, it is a family show. IT is a modern rendition of family matters, full house, parenthood, etc. That’s my opinion in my timeframe cause I’m 23 and when I visit my lil bro and sis I sit and watch it with them. I enjoy the show and enjoy that fact that my bro and sis enjoy it as well. IT is a wholesome show and I’m glad that she continues these things for the youth despite her age. I really think she simply enjoys it. IT makes her feel younger. Stacey Dash played a teenager in clueless while she was in her 30′s and Olivia Newtown John played in grease when she was in her 30′s.

Besides that people need to stop being so concerned with her weight. Worry about your own health because if you smoke (ciggs or weed), drink, have unprotected sex, drink too much caffeine,constantly stressed then chances are your health isn’t the best no matter how many times a week you hit the gym. IF her doctors or nutitionists are not saying her weight is potentially fatal then let her be. I’m sure if it became a problem she would definitely care to eat green foods, and work out daily with a trainer. For now she’s ok so let her be. Some people in here think they are fitness trainers or nutiotionists.smh

well said @ LADY ARCHITECT!!!!

@ lady architect, Im sorry love but she does need to drop 40lbs, look at those legs they look like beige balloons filled with pudding. I know her disney contract calls for a per diem for meals but does she have to spend it all at Hometown Buffet?

And you can tell they photoshopped those thighs, look at the lines!

Go Raven. Do your thang!!

Go Raven !!You are beautiful and powerful just the way you are.

I love me some Raven but why does she look so old?

Okay, so I’m having Whitley flashbacks when I look at her picture! She’s adorable in any size and kudos to her for staying true to herself!

How do I get a picture up instead of the ‘G’? Feel free to answer!

$400 million? Are you crazy?

voluptuously fabulous please. I am so tired of people trying to convince their self that their rolls of fat are attractive. The first step is admitting to your self that you need to lose some weight. Then try curbing your appetite. After that go get and trainer and exercise. After all of that and 40 pounds less, will make you look fabulous.

I agree she should lose some weight. a good 20lbs would do her serious justice. But rock on Raven I’m glad you’ve kept it respectful!

Who in the hell ‘OKed’ this picture. It is sooo not flattering! Her smile looks crazy, her over-arched eyebrows look even crazier, and although she is “voluputuos” that dress is not flattering at all. I guess Jet magazine only had enough money in the budget to take 2 kodak pictures instead of a real photoshoot.

@6am

Thank you for your response and for your additional info on Raven’s income. As for Raven’s weight, I’m much more concerned about the health of women (and men) who lack the money to afford a nutritionist, personal trainer, gym membership, etc., or who lack access or transportation to a supermarket with healthy food. And I think there are women who CAN be healthy with more rotund shapes because not everyone is meant to be a size 2. In short, if Raven’s health is at risk, I’m sure she has the means to expeditiously change her eating and/or exercise habits.

I think you’re a wee bit weight-obsessed and still suffering flashbacks to your BK experience — yes, I read your story on the other thread, and, I’m sorry, but I wanted to laugh hysterically. Let it go, hun.

P.S. You get points for not using a derogatory name for Raven in your most recent post.

Love, Syd

I don’t have a problem with her body but WHY would you make such a goofy face for a magazine cover? Or is that her natural face? That is some clowny ish.

@ Sydney, Yo you used the word “ROTUND” Now watch as some deep south babymomma names her next kid “Shaniqua Rotund Jenkins”

LOL, Rofl Lmao!

Oops thats Now watch as some fat deep south babymomma names her next kid “Shaniqua Rotund Jenkins”

Lol

@6am

I had to check in to see if you responded. LMAO! I thought about I said earlier, and I’m sorry if I minimized your experience in any way. That does sound very traumatic. I’ve just never heard of anyone getting mugged for a Whopper *smothering laughter* Maybe you can turn it into a plot for the next Tyler Perry film. J/K

By the way, I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments on Perry’s films. It’s the chitlin circuit on the big screen. Also, you said the other day that the Wayans brothers are considering releasing a Soul Plane 2. Please tell me you were being facetious. Please.

Raven Jiggly butt Simone..Mmmmm

Raven Simone + Cheetah Girlz + That’s So Raven + Cosby Kid = Record sales no matter what it sounds like… I’ma buy it the day it is released. I bet I can listen to it with my kid who is a fan more then I am.

Now, I’m not hating because I love my sisters but, Is it me or does her mouth look like the grinch that stole christmas? Im just asking.

80% of my sista’s r chubby. STOP eating SOUL Food U may get a FATHER! Not a nbabby DADDY
