Many actors might struggle to break free from such a beloved role, but Ribeiro managed to diversify his career. Beyond “The Fresh Prince,” he has amassed over 30 credits and even launched his own radio show, “The ’90s with Alfonso Ribeiro”.
In 2022, the actor joined “Dancing with the Stars” as a co-host for its 31st season, sharing duties with Tyra Banks. After Banks’ departure, Julianne Hough stepped in, and now the duo leads the production, bringing their charisma and energy to each episode.
