Alfonso Ribeiro – Host

Alfonso Ribeiro rose to fame when he landed Carlton’s role on the NBC sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alongside Will Smith. After acting in various films, this 47-year-old star must have realized that his strengths reside in speaking and hosting rather than acting. He did not leave the screens, though, and just focused on working on non-acting jobs on the net. Alfonso has been the host of ABC’s long-term television series, America’s Funniest Home Videos, since 2015 following Tom Bergeron’s farewell.

He also anchored the Catch 21, Spell-Mageddon, and Dance 360. Ribeiro also emerged in the Broadway musical, The Tap Dance Kid, and I’m a Celebrity Get me Out of Here! He also bagged an award in Dancing with the Stars Season 19 with Witney Carson. Even if he did not take any film acting jobs, his hosting gigs probably helped pay his mortgage and ready him for retirement.
