302. You know People who think it's okay to tear others down, whether it's because of weight or drugs or other issues, deserve the same fate later on down the road...may all your cheeseburgers and fries go straight to you @ss and may all the people in the world sit and point and laugh at you, everybody is different, and weight gain is not an uncommon issue in America, get over yourselves and look at what truly matters in these actors and actresses, kirstie Ally is a spokesperson for jenny craig, and Raven Simone, while not my favorite actress, is still a very good role model and teaches some value and ethics in her shows...which is more than i can say for a lot of shows these days
303. OH shove it!!!! People are gonna do what they are gonna do and be what they are gonna be... NO ONE HAS to be a role model for young kids and I am sick of today's censorship...... You dont like something, dont watch, listen buy etc etc. And as far as this giving image issues to people, that is bull because it is up to each and everyone of us to look out for number one. If things like weight talks of Hollywood make you throw up your meals there are more things going on there and maybe you need help!!! Stop acting like Hollywood needs to act how YOU want them to act, they are their own people as well. EAT LESS, MOVE MORE!!!!
To all the parents whining about role models... try being one yourself and maybe your kids wont look up to people you dont want them to. Instead of trying to change others, change yourself!

305. There is nothing wrong with Raven...sry she cant be like your stick thin girls in hollywood...she is not built like that..and she is a beautiful girl
306. You know, it was a flippant "chubby" comment by a "journalist" about Karen Carpenter when she was not much older than Raven that plunged her into anorexia, which eventually took her life. I realize your website is Trash Central, but you should be a little more responsible when covering young people, particularly someone who actually seems to be a decent role model for little girls.
307. John Travolta in picture #32 looks like an alien ~ forget about the weight ~ he looks downright scary! Is that spray on hair or hair plugs? Just sayin.............oh, and his picture #23 does have a wardrobe malfunction...............................
309. Many of these people gained weight it appears with age. Whereas I do agree that carrying around a certain amount of extra weight like Areatha is unheathy, Raven Simon doesn't appear to be at an unhealthy weight. Society has convinced many that extra thin is good,but from what I see,it doesn't seem healthy. Who would want to be so thin that you almost look skelital. You can't tell me that the diet to look like that is healthy. And the many models who have died very young is proof of that.
310. Raven isn't fat, she's built big. My sister is built like Raven, she's not fat, she's a healthy weight for someone her height. Just because people are built different doesn't mean they're fat.
311. its so sad that people put others down because of their weight,some people gain weight when they age,taking certain medications also causes weight gain,everyone in the world cant be small, they probably need to watch what they eat to maintain their weight,sometimes thats hard,god made everyone, we need to stop putting people down because of their size.
312. Aretha come one, I understand that it is probably hard to loose weight when you have gained that much, but surely she can get gastric bypass done or something.
Her health will start going downhill if she doesn't do something.
313. did raven get all of her friends to write on here to say that she's not fat??? she is fat. she is not healthy. just as much as being anorexic is not healthy, being overweight is not healthy. however, i do agree its unfair to compare her kiddie pic to her adult pic since that's quite different than gaining weight over the years
