Raven-Symone has landed a permanent spot on "The View". Whoopi Goldberg announced the new addition to the ABC show during the latest episode, ''We are happy to announce Raven-Symone is now permanently part of 'The View'."

"I am so happy. I remember coming on 'The View' when I was 15 years old for the first Cheetah Girls. I'm very happy to be sitting with these smart, talented mentors," Symone herself said when she showed up in front of audience. "You guys, let's have some fun."

Raven-Symone, a former child actress who shot to fame on "The Cosby Show", appeared as co-hosts on the show several times before since Rosie O'Donnell left her post in February.
