She hasn't changed has she? She just has a fat/chubby gene…

God, I hated her in The Cosby Show…

Raven Symone is NOT FAT! Maybe TMZ was having a slow day, because comparing her from when she was a child to how she is now, as an adult, is completely wrong. And she's a great actress and a great role model for young african-american girls and oddly enough, one of the first female rappers LOL

I love Raven!

Is Mariah Carey on the list? Gossip rags are always on her for being fat. She's not fat! She's completely ridiculous in 9000 other ways, but why resort to calling her fat?

Aawww, adult Raven Symone is sooooo cute! To hell with the A-holes saying "Fattie".

Puhlease. Is it any wonder tween girls are falling prey to eating disorders? Raven is a great role model for my girls. They look up to her. TMZ can't find party-like behavior to report so they make fun of her perfectly normal figure. She looks great.

The only problem I see here is TMZ feeding the culture-of-thin that's destroying the self-esteem of girls.

She's not fat. She's thick. I approve.

Stories like this are the reason why I don't read TMZ anymore.

All I could think, looking through all those pictures on TMZ, is that all those celebrities - including Raven Symone - are gorgeous, with or without extra weight. I bet the person who put that piece together wishes they could look as good as any of them WITH the extra weight. When I was younger there was a comeback to this kind of thing, "I may be fat, but you're ugly. When I lose weight - you'll still be ugly."

So sad, TMZ is known for their notoriously bad gossip & can be ranked on the stilts of Perez Hilton. I'm done.

BMD: Seconded. It's impossible to be normal; you're either a fat pig or you have an eating disorder. Raven looks great the way she is.

This reminds me of something I heard Mo'Nique say on a chat show (Oprah?). Her dad once told her: "'They' can say you're fat. 'They' can say you're ugly. But you know what? 'They' can go to hell."

From what I've read Raven has enough monry to buy TMZ 50 times over, so I'm sure she doesn't give a hoot what that People's Court reject and his people have to say.

She is not fat. She just has a large chest area…it sometimes gives the illusion of being bigger. She's definitely not skinny - but most normal (non-fat) women are not Hollywood thin.

re so obsessed with titles. Yes, she's on the plump/thick side. Some people will label her as fat including TMZ. And? TMZ posts things for the sake of controversy and hits so why on earth should we work up energy on this?5. She's described herself as thick. Don't think she particularly cares.

If your daughter is frequenting TMZ, her body image is the least of her problems.

I don't think she is big at all! She has huge boobs, that makes her look bigger.TMZ should get a life. Why is it so popular anyway?

Fat…no. Thick…yes indeed. Thumbs up from me!

Interesting- I've learned here that the word "thick" can have positive connotations. White girls insult each other with "thick". I'm intrigued…

Yes RhymesWithSilver, "Thick" is GOOD.

I LOVE Raven, but she needs to lose weight. High blood pressue, diabetes and heart disease are REAL.

FAT, THICK, PlEASANTLY PLUMP…whatever. The point is that the girl does not have a gorgeous body on her. Now that doesn't mean she's not attractive to some or that some guy would find her attractive. As looks are in the eye of the beholder. But let's all be honest, she is not skinny or PHAT either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PHAT is not FAT. And for those thick girls out there…you are all just on the verge of ballooning.

One more thing, Raven-Symone is not huge either! She is just a big hipped, big-breasted, and most of all has a quite a round-face which makes her look bigger than she is. But her waist-line is not too big either. It's just the way she is built!

Indeed, "Thick" is interpreted quite differently. One thing for sure is that anytime I have dated a woman describing herself as thick, she has not been my type. A bit too heavy for me. For me a great body would be the likes of Jessica Alba, the old Britney (not the new one…she's a mess now), Salma Hayek, etc.

I think she is fat. You dont have to be eating disorder skinny and you dont have to be overweight. I have a happy, normal, HEALTHY body. I'm athletic and im fit (and no im not a body builder) and its because I take care of myself. I even eat what the hell I want to eat. Just as long as you're not LAZY and do what you have to do inorder to keep yourself looking good and healthy then you do it. Clench you're teeth and get on the treadmill! Before work…after work..on weekends and sundays…whatever it takes. Unless your are physically or medically unable to do it, you can do it. Whatever you say…fat is NOT beautiful. Not in the least. It just says something about you. Like I said unless your are PHYSICALLY or MEDICALLY unable to do it, you can.

Jennifer Lopez is a great example. Yea, she has a big butt, but it's fit! Raven is overflowing with fat. And she's fat everywhere else! In her arms, face, thighs. Ew! Pinch that while your making love….eeeeew!
