From defending a host who said Michelle Obama looked like a cast member from ‘Planet of the Apes’ to defending a police officer who assaulted a teenage black girl, Raven-Symone has left us wondering what the hell she was thinking quite a few times. But, now it seems the actress is trying to get back in our good graces. She recently announced that she’s leaving ‘The View’ to develop ‘That’s So Raven 2’ for Disney.
