Raven-Symoné Reveals Her Disney Channel 'Mount Rushmore' – Guess Who Made The Cut!

Raven-Symoné's Disney Mount Rushmore: Who's On It?

Raven-Symoné, the iconic star of "That's So Raven," recently unveiled her personal Disney Channel 'Mount Rushmore' during a candid chat with The Shade Room. As a celebrated figure in the Disney universe herself, Raven's choices are bound to stir some nostalgia and excitement among fans.

In the interview, she confidently shared her picks, highlighting a mix of talents who have made significant impacts on the network. Raven, who first charmed audiences as Olivia on "The Cosby Show," became a Disney staple with roles in "Kim Possible," the "Cheetah Girls," and later "Raven's Home."

“I would say me, Hilary [Duff], Shia [LaBeouf],” she said. “I would also put in Jett Jackson... He is no longer with us, but he was the first Black show on Disney.”

The Icons of Disney Channel's Heyday

Raven's picks include herself, Hilary Duff, Shia LaBeouf, and Lee Thompson Young – the actor who brought Jett Jackson to life. Young's role in "The Famous Jett Jackson" marked a pivotal moment for Black representation on Disney Channel, and his legacy endures even after his tragic passing in 2013.

"Lee Thompson Young played the famous Jett Jackson, and I believe he should be on Mount Rushmore, of Disney Rushmore. He definitely deserves a spot," Raven emphasized. Her admiration for Young's contributions to the network is evident and heartfelt.

Why Miley Didn't Make the Cut

Interestingly, Miley Cyrus – another Disney powerhouse – was considered but ultimately left off Raven's list. Raven explained that Miley's rise to fame came after the time of the original Disney icons she chose to honor.

"No, not Miley," Raven stated. "I love you Miley, but no, not Miley. She came after." This decision reflects Raven's focus on the early trailblazers who paved the way for future Disney stars.

In the end, Raven-Symoné's Disney 'Mount Rushmore' is a tribute to the stars who defined an era and left an indelible mark on the Disney Channel legacy.
