The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was one of the most popular sitcoms of the nineties and is still an absolute classic today. The series made Will Smith world-famous above all, but one cast member was the secret star of the series: Alfonso Ribeiro, who played "Carlton Banks".

After The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Alfonso went on to star on In the House, another successful sitcom. Check out the rest of his career in the video above!
