You might be wondering what the heck is The Carlton Dance? This is what I know. I am surfing around the net and I find this quirky video related to a show that I watched in the 90′s “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air“.
On “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” actor Alfonso Rebeiro (currently a host on the Game Show Network) plays a character called Carlton. His character did a crazy dance that I always looked forward to when he did it. I have heard that Alfonso Rebeiro refuses to do the dance again because he has been asked so many times to perform it. (Update: He will do the dance. He just did a flash mob video on YouTube.)
I do know that the dance is hilarious and fun. Every time I see The Carlton Dance it just makes me feel good.
So….actor Daniel Spink created a song and video to go with The Carlton Dance. He simply called it “The Carlton Dance”. He cast an interesting list of stars to make cameos in the video. Watch the video and see how many of these stars you recognize. Here is the video:
See what I mean? The Carlton Dance is just fun. Now let me show you a video of the REAL Carlton Dance from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air“:
Go out and do the Carlton Dance and see what people have to say. I guarantee you will get some weird looks but I also know that you will put smiles on people’s faces.
Thanks for stopping by….
