Raven Symone News 2016: Is TV Star Quitting 'The View?' Her Rep Comments [VIDEO]
Is Raven Symone really thinking about leaving The View?
That's what the latest rumor is ever since Page Six mentioned that the daytime co-host is looking to say goodbye to the series and become an actress again.
"They've already been eyeing someone to replace her at the table, and she's aware," a source said. "She wants to focus on her acting again."
Luckily though, this gossip doesn't have to continue since Symone's rep commented on the report saying that it's "ridiculous."
In a report from E! News, the spokesperson for ABC News said, "Ratings are up. We are very happy with the team we have. Raven is a great addition to the panel."
The View has its share of controversial moments when the ladies at the table discuss news reports and express their opinions. Symone, herself, has gotten some heat for this, but her panel co-host Sunny Hostin told ABC why she enjoys working with the 30-year-old.
"I think the most misunderstood person on the cast is Raven Symone," Hostin said. "I adore Raven Symone. She is very brave, she's smart, she's funny. And if you think about it, it's very brave that she is learning her world view in front of millions of people every single day. She's wicked funny and she's probably one of my favorite people on the cast."
Hostin also pointed out how challenging it can be to express thoughts, but it's even harder when it's happening in front of millions of people.
"Imagine if you were asked your opinions when you were in your twenties on television," Hostin said. "I mean I would've had some crazy things coming out of my mouth. I still have crazy things coming out of my mouth."
