Smith was majorly impressed by his former costar's moves alongside Ribeiro's former 'Dancing with the Stars' partner.

Alfonso Ribeiro of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Dancing with the Starsrecently delighted fans by reuniting with former partner Witney Carson for a dance performance.

Ribeiro, who rose to fame with his portrayal of Carlton Banks on the '90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, originally performed the iconic Carlton dance on the ABC dance competition several years ago.


This time, he and Carson decided to add a fresh twist to the routine.

In a video posted to TikTok by Witney Carson, the duo showcased a 2023 version of the iconic dance, set to the Fresh Prince theme song.


The video quickly went viral, capturing the hearts of Dancing with the Stars fans and prompting Alfonso Ribeiro to share the reunion on his Instagram account.

The reprisal of their acclaimed dance number was met with enthusiasm, especially since Witney Carson had recently returned to the TV dancing competition after a hiatus.

The viral moment even caught the attention of Will Smith, Ribeiro's friend and former co-star from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Smith expressed his approval by commenting on Ribeiro's Instagram post, saying:

"Come on!! Still got it."

The supportive comment from Smith added a sentimental touch, considering the duo's history on the set of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, where Ribeiro regularly performed "the Carlton."

Ribeiro's moves impressed the Oscar winner, and the viral clip marked a full-circle moment as the two worlds of Fresh Prince and Dancing with the Stars collided again.

Fans everywhere couldn't get enough:

The video also served as a reminder of Alfonso Ribeiro's journey from being a contestant on Dancing with the Stars to his current role as co-host.

As fans speculate about the possibility of Ribeiro showcasing his dance moves on the dramatic reimagining of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, titled Bel-Air, they may have to wait, as DWTS Season 32 recently concluded.

Ribeiro's fans, however, remain hopeful for more dancing content, whether related to the show or not.
