On November 25^th, Alfonso Ribeiro, also known as Carlton from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” became the season 19 winner of Dancing With The Stars. The 43-year-old actor swept the stage performing three dances with his partner Witney Carson that led him to victory. This triumph hadn’t come easily, as Alfonso suffered from an injury during the season that questioned his ability to continue dancing. Yet the star persevered and stunned the judges as he impeccably performed a tap routine during the two-part finale live on ABC. Ribeiro was a strong competitor throughout the season and even performed the infamous dance “The Carlton” from Fresh Prince in one dance routine.
