00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.560
- Hey, Alfonso Ribero here,

2
00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:05.670
host of America's Funniest
Home Videos on ABC

3
00:00:05.670 --> 00:00:08.070
and co-host of Dancing With the Stars

4
00:00:08.070 --> 00:00:10.890
on Disney+ every Monday night.

5
00:00:10.890 --> 00:00:13.965
And I'm here with the AV
Club, so let's get to it.

6
00:00:13.965 --> 00:00:16.382
(rock music)

7
00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:20.880
How's the experience of
co-hosting Dancing With The Stars

8
00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:21.713
with Tyra Banks?

9
00:00:21.713 --> 00:00:22.546
It's been great.

10
00:00:22.546 --> 00:00:26.280
Tyra has been a friend of
mine for, you know, 30 years

11
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:28.350
and we went to grade school together

12
00:00:28.350 --> 00:00:30.960
and her first acting job was
the Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

13
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:33.360
So we've known each other
for a very long time

14
00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:35.310
and she's a wonderful woman

15
00:00:35.310 --> 00:00:36.540
and we have a great time together.

16
00:00:36.540 --> 00:00:38.248
I think our chemistry is fantastic

17
00:00:38.248 --> 00:00:41.384
on air and it's been awesome.

18
00:00:41.384 --> 00:00:46.080
What's your go to song to dance
to, Uptown Funk, Bruno Mars.

19
00:00:46.080 --> 00:00:46.913
That's the one,

20
00:00:46.913 --> 00:00:49.740
it's older now, but you
know there's not a lot of

21
00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:52.050
dance songs kind of on the
radio right now anyway,

22
00:00:52.050 --> 00:00:54.030
so, you know the old ones are good ones.

23
00:00:54.030 --> 00:00:57.060
Who is your dancing inspiration and why?

24
00:00:57.060 --> 00:00:58.890
I obviously loved Michael Jackson

25
00:00:58.890 --> 00:01:00.513
and his dancing back in the day.

26
00:01:01.380 --> 00:01:03.377
Those were, they were amazing.

27
00:01:03.377 --> 00:01:05.880
You know, you can look at Fred Astaire

28
00:01:05.880 --> 00:01:07.870
and the Nicholas Brothers and

29
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:11.670
they were unbelievable
dancers back in the days.

30
00:01:11.670 --> 00:01:14.880
Who is your favorite
celebrity host of all time?

31
00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:18.120
I've kind of said this, I
truly believe that Tom Bergeron

32
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:20.295
is the best host on television,

33
00:01:20.295 --> 00:01:23.529
can't wait to see him
on something new soon.

34
00:01:23.529 --> 00:01:27.750
He's so good at being calm,
knowing when to tell a joke.

35
00:01:27.750 --> 00:01:31.200
I've watched him a lot and
learned a lot from him.

36
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:32.340
I think he's fantastic.

37
00:01:32.340 --> 00:01:34.350
I think he's probably the best host on TV

38
00:01:34.350 --> 00:01:36.570
right now definitely.

39
00:01:36.570 --> 00:01:38.490
You know, if you're gonna go back in time

40
00:01:38.490 --> 00:01:40.680
it's probably Johnny Carson.

41
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:41.710
Johnny Carson was

42
00:01:42.660 --> 00:01:45.120
absolutely amazing at
what he was able to do

43
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:48.030
as a host, interviewer,

44
00:01:48.030 --> 00:01:49.410
late night television.

45
00:01:49.410 --> 00:01:50.313
He was the best.

46
00:01:51.507 --> 00:01:53.327
