Alfonso Ribeiro is back in the ballroom: The former “Dancing with the Stars” champ will co-host the show with Tyra Banks when Season 31 premieres on Disney+ in the fall, the network announced Thursday.
“’Dancing with the Stars’ has been such an important part of my life for so many years, and I am ecstatic to officially rejoin this tight-knit family as co-host,” Ribeiro said in a statement. “Tyra and I have a longstanding friendship that I hope will resonate with all of the fans at home as we kick off this new season on Disney+.”
“I’ve known Alfonso since I was 19 years old and he always puts a smile on my face whenever I see him,” said Banks, who recurred on “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” “Having such a fun-loving, longtime friend as co-host warms my heart. Plus, he’s won the competition before, so he knows exactly what the stars are going through.
