Thank you Kanye for proving that you’re not as self-absorbed as you like to portray. You should do it more often. The smiles looks genuine.

Yep that was her. She was the one who used the phone for such a long time that the other girls came in and hung it up. Then she didn’t participate in a photo shoot because she was sick and got the boot.

I love Raven but she really needs to loose some of that weight if she wants to work, she is probably stressed out.

Kanye really has turned over a new leaf!!

Michelle is cute.

Damn Raven. I know everybody isn’t a size 2 but you are too young to be looking like that. Push back from the table and get your work out on.

Always great to see an entertainer supporting our youth, great job Kanye.

Does Michelle still sing???? No really, does she??? Matthew only promotes his kids and it is so obvious.

Love Raven! And for health reasons only, Raven should consider shedding a couple pounds. She is so young and must take better care of herself and her body.

23.

OOOH NASTY

@18
Its rumored that Raven has a nice, nice cushion of money to fall back on. She probably loves to work but doesn’t necessarily have to til she wants to.

But yeah she needs to lose weight. People can say what they will but sometimes weight factors can be attributed to pure laziness. .

I hope the people who are saying Raven needs to lose weight are small themselves. LOL

She got some tig ol bitties though. YEAH! :)

I don’t remember Monique being that dark on the show ( me being a dark sista myself I would have remembered her since I rarely see girls on tv that look like me) but nonetheless she looks good. The short hair is a good look for her.

Two of my most favorite people in the world, Raven and Kanye awesome!

and I bet that was a great concert!

That’s a good look for Ye!

Ok know I don’t usually go at it on a celebs weight but Raven? Man Jenny will be calling soon!!

Really there are still new batches of ANTM? She’s very pretty, one of the best since the Diva Eva, hopefully she’s taller.

Malik looks funny in this picture very off.

It is amazing what short hair can do…I thought Monique Calhoun was average on AMNT…but she looks amazing here! If it wasnt for the picture description…I would have not been able to tell you who it was!

In speaking of dark skin models….who is that model with Kanye in The Dream’s new video “walking on the moon”?

Damn!!! Didn’t even recognize Raven until I looked at the names! Thought it was some big girl trying to get a pic with Kayne! Damn, Raven has got XXL Large!

Guess that “Fishsticks” episode from South Park help Kayne alittle bit.LOL

BTW, I am soooo proud of Kanye! He is such an inspiration…I mean when I first heard his mother pass, I just knew that he was going to throw in the towel. I was not expecting for him to make any type of Music at all or even come back to the limelight…And here he is continuing his mother’s legacy and looking GOOD while doing it! All he need is GOOD non-Golddigger Woman…and he’ll officially have the GOOD Life:)

I am soooooooo feeling Kanye’s new look too! He looks GOOD in dark colors!

Raven looks a damn mess as usual. Needs to lose about 60 lbs and lose some of the make-up. She will never be as rich and popular as the Olsen girls because she’s tooooooo fat. Doesn’t she feel the need to get a breast reduction and lose that damn baby fat.

36.

Dammmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Raven’s ass needs to start turning down a plate or two. Lord have mercy! lmao.

37.

Its Britney b*&^%

Friday, June 12, 2009 /

@35 the Olsen girls are hardly popular anymore and they’re annoying and anorexic- hardly positive role models

Anyway, its great to see Kanye doing somethng positive and I’m glad he ditched that skank he was with- lets hope he’s turned over a new leaf

Raven’s facial expressions are hillarious!

Kudos to Ye! I like Raven and I think she has a very sweet spirit, but girlfriend to girlfriend, her weight and heavy makeup are aging her, IMO.

Umm...

First event for the foundation in 2 YEARS? Is this b/c he said that stupid shit about “reading is dumb”

RAVEN HAS GOT GOT GOT TO LOSE SOME WEIGHT. She aint had a job since my senior year in HS with that Thats So Raven ibs. The reason why she aint been offered any movie roles in because she too big and probably don’t wanna play Mama Shirley in a Tyler Perry movie. Raven and Michelle need to take each other’s diets.

42.

@40.

Who Kanye’s mother?

43.

And why don’t Raven ever bring her baby or talk about her child? I mean people been telling me she got a daughter for the longest time. Why she never talk about her kid?

WTF @ Raven!!! Why is she always wearing belted tops/dresses WITH NO DEFINED WAIST? That dress makes everything below the belt look HUGE.
Not flattering at all. Yeah she could stand to lose some weight,but until then she needs my favorite stylists Clinton and Stacy from “What Not To Wear ” to assist her with clothing that better match her body type.

50.

WOW

Sunday, June 14, 2009 /

@35 fyi Raven has a net worth of several hundred million dollars. Most people don’t realize that she has made a fortune over the years from her show, movies, deals with disney, music, product endorsements, etc. She is a brand that appeals to the tween audience. She still has her residual checks coming in as well.
So yeah she is big but I’m sure it’s because she is eating good. She is set. She doesn’t have to work at all.
She should take better care of herself but overall I think she is a good role model.
