Before think pieces had threads and before the web had rules, Raven-Symoné already knew tips on how to shake the room. Whether she meant to or not, her words, moments, and reactions have all the time sent the timeline right into a frenzy—and the web’s been side-eyeing, debating, and reposting ever since.

When We Thought Raven-Symoné Voluntarily Gave Up Her “Black Card”
Back in 2014, Raven-Symoné told Oprah Winfrey, “I’m an American, I’m not an African American,” and the web erupted. People thought she was canceling herself, tossing her “Black card” within the trash, and starting a full-on debate about identity. Even Oprah needed to step in, joking, “Oh, girl, don’t set Twitter on fire.” Years later, Raven circled back, saying, “A variety of people thought I said that I wasn’t Black. And I never said that.” Raven said what she said, owned it, and the timeline is STILL shook over her past comments!
Raven Had The Ancestors Shook While Co-Hosting ‘The View’
While co-hosting ‘The View,’ Raven got hit with the final word “wait… who?” moment. In a clip, she was chatting with Whoopi Goldberg, Nicolle Wallace, and Candace Cameron Bure about how fans should ask celebrities for selfies: “I don’t like signing my name anymore ’cause my hand gets a cramp, but for those who want me to vote for you —” before being hilariously interrupted.
Then Wallace dropped the bomb: “You’re THAT famous?” Raven’s ancestors probably gasped, clutching their pearls, because this woman went from ‘The Cosby Show’ to Disney domination—and now a former White House communications director is questioning her relevancy?! Raven tried to carry it along with laughs and nods, however the shade was already served. Social media immediately reminded everyone: put some respeck on her name, period. Whoopi made sure to do exactly that, seemingly showing she had Raven’s back by letting her know she’s still THAT Girl as she sits alongside them on one in every of the longest-running morning talk shows.
