Demi Lovato is "So Raven" when it comes to her Disney Channel Mount Rushmore.
Days after Raven-Symoné named herself, Hilary Duff, Shia LaBeouf, and Lee Thompson Young (The Famous Jett Jackson) as the network's foundational stars, the Sonny With a Chance alum echoed her picks — for the most part.
"It would definitely be Raven, Hilary," Lovato revealed on the latest episode of the Chicks in the Office podcast. "Honestly, I agree with her answers. Hers definitely resonated."
One name on Raven's list would not be etched in granite on Lovato's proverbial Mount Rushmore, however.
"She had included Shia," cohost Fran Mariano reminded Lovato, who replied, "Eh, I'm okay on that one. We can pass."
The newlywed singer-actress didn't go into detail on her decision to omit the Even Stevens actor, but his troubling past few weeks could be an indication.
On Feb. 17, LaBeouf was arrested for attacking two men in New Orleans after being kicked out of a bar.

A judge ordered him to enroll in rehab for substance abuse; however, LaBeouf next popped up in a Rome hotel on March 17, dressed only in his underwear and asking staff for a match to light a cigarette.
Lovato didn't confirm her final four choices for the Disney Channel's Mount Rushmore, but she did suggest going back even further into pop culture history, a decade before That's So Raven and Lizzie McGuire.

"But like you have to even go back to The Mickey Mouse Club, too," she mused, "like people that were on Disney Channel prior to everyone I just named. You know, there was Britney [Spears] and Christina [Aguilera]" in the early 1990s.
On second thought, "maybe not," she continued. "I don't know. They were on Disney, but they didn't transform Disney Channel into what it is, and I think Raven really did that, Hilary really did that" in the early 2000s.

To placate all generations, Lovato suggested perhaps "a separate Mount Rushmore" for the later era of Mouse House talent, like the Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, "and hopefully me."
