Raven Symone will be returning to television as the star of a new ABC Family comedy pilot titled “The Great State of Georgia.” In the show Raven will play the character Georgia who is a performer from the south who is trying to make it big in New York City. Actor Brock Cuchna will play Georgia’s Southern ex-boyfriend who comes to New York to try to win her back.
The pilot show was written by Jennifer Weiner (In Her Shoes) and Jeff Greenstein (Desperate Housewives).
The show premieres Wednesday, June 23rd @ 8:30pm.
In the interview, she discusses the reaction to her recent weight loss, why she keeps it PG 13 and having to wear body pads for her new role in the new ABC Family series “State of Georgia”
On reactions to her weight loss
I find it funny that people now come up to me and say, ‘Wow, you are absolutely gorgeous’. I’m like, ‘I was beautiful before I lost weight. Egotistically speaking, I thought I was amazing’
On why she keeps it PG 13
It’s not so much about showing my sexy side because of the kids, I have to answer to my mama and brother, my dad and my grandparents, the ones I have to look in the eyes every day when I take my weave and eyelashes out.
On her new character
Ironically, my character is supposed to be the size that I was before. So I have to wear thicker body pads on the show.
