ARTICLE FROM yazmar.com (Full story clcik here)

When I was on the net looking for stories to write about I came upon this story and I said I am going to write about this. Raven Symone who we watched grow up on the “Cosby Show” and “Hangin With Mr. Cooper” and then “That’s So Raven” I guess is getting ready to marry her girlfriend model AzMarie Livingstone.

And guess what readers? Raven wants First Lady Michelle Obama to officiate!!  There has been rumors for a long time about Raven and her love affairs with females. Of course she always said it is her business who she loves etc. Just like their have been rumors about Queen Latifeh and other stars.

For those of you who don’t know, in 2004 I had a few extra coins and I flew Raven and her dad up from Atlanta to Seattle. In two days we went to EIGHT schools and three community centers to visit the kids. Raven was about 12 or 13. It was so a lot of work breaking down audio stuff and setting it up again etc but myself and good friend Donna got the job done. It was a lot of fun seeing the smiles on the kids faces when they saw Raven. By the way I also did a Garfield High School visit by Latifeh.

I also hooked up with Raven again a few years ago when she came to the area to perform. We again went to three community centers and had a lot of fun again seeing the happy faces. The last visit Raven’s mom Lydia was with her. So I guess you can say Raven and I are friends. In more than 21 years of producing “Music Inner City TV” I have never done events with stars like I did with Raven.

Well I just feel what ever makes her happy then so be it. You never here about Raven in trouble. She just does her thing in Hollywood making movies and TV shows and if she is happy with another female…..oh well. I am sure her parents do not care for this but Raven is a grown lady. Lets’s see if it hurts her career.
