    That's So Raven actor arrested on drug charges

    An actor in the Disney Channel's That's So Raven television program is free on bail after he was arrested early Tuesday and charged with mar1juana possession.

    Orlando Brown, 19, who plays Eddie Thomas, the best friend of star Raven Symone on the popular show, was arrested after police pulled him over about 1 a.m. in the 4200 block of Westheimer.

    The officer stopped the 1992 Acura Integra that Brown was driving because the headlights were off. During a search of the car, the officer found the mar1juana on the driver's side door.

    Brown, in an interview, denied that the mar1juana belonged to him. Also a singer and rapper, he said a friend lent him the car to use during his stay in Houston to make an album.

    "I didn't know what was in the car. That's not what I do. I consider myself a youth activist," he said.

    Brown said he thought the car's headlights were on when the officer pulled him over.

    Brown was taken into custody without incident and charged with misdemeanor mar1juana possession. He was released on bond.

    In addition to the Disney Channel television show, Brown has appeared in several movies, including Max Keeble's Big Move and Major Payne.

    "I don't want this (arrest) lingering over my head," Brown said. "I love what I do. Why jeopardize what I built?"

    My girls watch this and I don't, so I don't know who he is, but all I do know is that Raven is large and in charge...I'm just saying...

    I guess Disney doesn't pay their actors enough to get him something better than a 1992 Integra

    rrj_gamz... er, there's nothing wrong with that, is there...? :eek: Besides, man... that's sort of mean to say about her, though.
    He said a friend lent him the car. :p He's here visiting. I doubt he would have his own car, man.

    that guy's ego is bigger than his body. i remember seeing him on a talk show a couple of years ago, which would have made him 17 at the time, all blinged out. his demeanor was nothing short of arrogant.

    I can't say I've never forgotten to turn on my headlights. Westheimer is so brightly lit, I doubt it makes much difference.

    Awesome response. "medium" (she plays a psychic) :D

    Since The Cosby Show's cancellation, she's been stuck in high-priced cable land.

    I saw this on the news last night.

    No, I didn't have anything to do with this.


    I'll give him the BOD and say he is innocent, though he may hang out with shady people.
