Watch: ‘The View’ Celebrates Raven Symone’s 30th B-Day w/ Janet Jackson Themed Bash, Jussie Smollett, SWV & More Surprises!

Many of you may not be able to stand Raven Symone, but her family at “The View” sure does love her and on Thursday they celebrated the former child star’s 30th birthday in grand style.

The show kicked off with a special gift from Raven’s favorite artist Janet Jackson, who sent some special gifts for Raven and the entire audience and also sent her tour DJ to MC the entire live show with all the music from her album ‘Unbreakable’.

Following that, Raven was surprised by her good friend and “Empire” co-star Jussie Smollett and Andy Cohen also joined the party.

That’s not all, one of Raven’s fave R&B groups SWV stopped by to perform one of their biggest hits which happens to be one of Raven’s fave songs.
