Raven recently offered an explanation and an apology of sorts to the millions of people she offended with her comments about how she would NEVER hire anyone with a name like ‘Watermelondria,’ stating:
As an equal opportunity employer, I have never discriminated against a name….even though I said I would, it’s not true. My comment was in poor taste.
Raven’s father, Christopher B. Pearman also hit the net to offer an apology for his daughter, stating that she often says ‘dumb sh*t’ but he’s still proud of his little girl.

Pearman hit up facebook as well and offered his own apology for his daughter’s thoughtless words, explaining that he hasn’t managed the former Cosby Show star in over 10 years, but his daughter “has her own opinions, right or wrong, and is responsible for her own words and actions.”
