Dancing with the Stars is at present within the midst of its thirty second season, and the truth competitors sequence has a brand new crop of celebrities vying to take dwelling the coveted and newly renamed Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy. Contestants embody musicians, actors, athletes, influencers, and actuality stars, as per normal. Regardless that there’s nonetheless an extended option to go for Season 32, it’s by no means too early to start out enthusiastic about who may head to the ballroom subsequent season. Alfonso Ribeiro, who now holds a co-hosting gig, thinks Recent Prince co-star Will Smith ought to compete, and he has a humorous and shady purpose for that want.
A Recent Prince of Bel-Air reunion can be nice to see on DWTS. Alfonso Ribeiro was chatting with Adrienne Bailon-Houghton of E! Information when the previous Cheetah Lady requested who he would have on the present if he had the ability to get any movie star on it. The veteran actor and media persona could not assist however point out his former co-star and, whereas the decide is nice, his reasoning behind it has to do with the previous rapper’s dance strikes:
How a lot enjoyable wouldn’t it be that I get to look at Will Smith be dangerous at one thing?
Whereas Dancing with the Stars revolves round competitors, it is also about having enjoyable. Loads of celebrities who’ve competed have had zero information of ballroom dancing and have not had one of the best expertise. However it is a sequence about studying the ropes, although, which is why contestants search to be taught from professionals. It feels like Will Smith is not the best dancer and, given his skilled background, I am shocked that is apparently the case. Nonetheless, even probably the most gifted amongst us have their limitations.
It will be very entertaining to see Will Smith strive his finest on Dancing with the Stars, particularly since he undoubtedly wouldn’t be the one one who was horrible at dancing. Alfonso Ribeiro went on to rib his on-screen cousin a bit extra throughout the interview, however he additionally confirmed him some love:
That’s why it’d be nice. Will can’t dance. Will can’t dance. Come on? I’ve seen Will, and he can’t dance. … I don’t know if we’re gonna see the progress. I’m simply messing with you, Will. You recognize I like you. I like you, canine.
I am certain Will Smith may pull off just a few dances — simply do not anticipate him to do the Carlton Dance. By his personal admission, Alfonso Ribeiro refused to assist Smith be taught the long-lasting dance years in the past. No matter that although, ABC execs would possibly wish to give some severe consideration to making an attempt to get Smith for the present — in the event that they have not already. I might think about that scores would soar if he have been to look. Not solely would folks tune in to see how he fares on the dance flooring, however they could additionally wish to see the cheeky and shady banter between him and his nearly birthday twin Ribeiro.
You should definitely watch new episodes of Dancing with the Stars on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC as a part of the 2023 TV schedule. You may also use a Disney+ subscription to stream installments.
