It’s official! Raven-Symoné was named co-host of “The View,” it was announced live today on the ABC talk show. After 37 appearances as guest co-host, the actress/producer joins the panel alongside moderator Whoopi Goldberg and co-hosts Nicolle Wallace and Rosie Perez effective immediately.

“The Disney Company has made another one of my dreams come true! Being a part of ‘The View’ family will be a wonderful growing experience for me,” said Raven-Symoné. “The cast and crew are warm and welcoming and has made the transition into daytime talk easier. I have a lot to learn within this new arena, but being the apprentice of these spectacular women will only make me a better person and talk show host. I want to thank ABC, ABC News and The Disney Company for believing in me and my potential! Let's have some fun!”

She's so problematic so this should be interesting.

all these fools in here dragging must not watch the show... just because she made two comments y'all dont agree with doesn't take away how great she's been on the show overall.

Hopefully her controversy will boost the ratings.

This show has ran its course imo. Controversy will only take it so far before it becomes uncomfortable to watch.

Actually she adds nothing to the show imo. Her styling and personality is basically Whoopi 2.0 except younger. The issue with that she doesn't claim the younger gen or understand why they act the way they do so she can't give that younger eyes on issues. She's just there serving Whoopi lite. It's a waste.

They should have gotten someone really off beat for the last spot like Lena Dunham or Kylie Jenner. Someone to actually switch things up and give a unique (and controversial perspective). Raven only caught heat because she's been a target lately, Whoopi has said similar comments to Raven in the past of this show.

I mean she's been guest hosting everyday for like months, it was a matter of time

The current line-up is nice, but they're still missing that Elisabeth Hasselbeck. The one who typically has different views from everyone else on the show and isn't afraid to go back and forth with every person on that panel. She wasn't afraid to be the odd one out. She kept thing interesting.
