Raven Symone News: Did 'The View' Co-Host Lie About Getting 'Hit' At Recent Event? [VIDEO]
Did Raven Symone totally make up the story about getting "hit" on the red carpet?
Raven Symone Says She'll Keep Telling Her 'Truth' On 'The View'
During an episode of The View earlier this week, Symone opened up on an incident that allegedly occurred at the premiere for Zoolander 2. She claimed she was talking to a reporter when all of a sudden, reality star Kendall Jenner was in sight and Symone got "slapped" out of the way so Jenner could be interviewed instead.
"I'm on the carpet and I understand there's rise and fall of people's celebrity," Symone said. "I get it. I respect those who get it. However, I'm doing an interview with someone and the producer of this show, she goes like this 'Move! Move! Get Kendall, get out of the way!'"

"I looked at her, I said, 'I guess she's more important than everyone else,'" she added. "That's fine, but you don't have to hit me to get someone else's interview. You can ask me kindly, [say] 'Excuse me, Kendall Jenner is coming, I need to interview her' and I'll wait. Don't slap me upside the chest. I got hit twice because this girl came up behind me."
As shocking as this sounds, the media outlet that Symone spoke to opened up on this and said it didn't happen like that at all, according to Saturday's report from Love B Scott.
"We greatly enjoyed interviewing Raven Symone at the Zoolander 2 premiere," StarShop producer Felicia Miller-Stehr said. "In fact, we specifically sought her out on the red carpet, as we were excited to speak with her and hear her point of view. Contrary to media reports, I did not 'hit' her to get someone else's interview, and our video footage speaks for itself."
The video below seems to prove Miller-Stehr's claim right.
