Alfonso Ribeiro Asks “Inappropriate Questions”

During the second week of “Dancing “With the Stars”, pro dancer Emma Slater and actor Trevor Donovan danced a sexy rumba to Elvis Presley’s song “Always on My Mind” and their chemistry was strong. After dancing the rumba and receiving their feedback from the judges, the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” actor asked Slater and Donovan if there was more of their rumba — suggesting the two are romantically linked.
“Now obviously you’re more afraid of dancing, but the chemistry between you two, now I just have to know: is that your acting skills or is that real?,” Alfonso Ribeiro asked Slater and Donovan.
However, many fans found Ribeiro’s question inappropriate as Slater’s ex-husband, pro dancer Sasha Farber, was in the room at the time.
Slater quickly answered his question, saying “Wow, Alfonso. What?!” Donovan was silent for a moment, but eventually jumped in to help his dance partner. “If you really do a good job at acting, it all comes from the truth, so there’s something real in every performance,” said the “90210” actor. “.

After facing backlash from fans, Ribeiro went on Sway Calloway’s Sway’s Universe podcast to talk about the incident, saying it was just a “joke”.
“I know nothing happened there because he was at my house for my birthday. I was talking to Sasha, like I was aware of everything that was going on,” Ribeiro said in the podcast, “And then America was like ‘That’s rude because her husband is there.’ I was like ‘That’s a joke. We are playing. Ouch, dang.”

“Dancing With the Stars” pro dancers Sasha Farber and Emma Slater began dating in 2011 and in October 2016, Farber got down on one knee and proposed to Slater during a live broadcast of the reality competition show.
The couple tied the knot in Los Angeles in March 2018. Unfortunately, after four years of marriage, the two decided to separate.
Both Farber and Slater still support each other and compete against each other on “Dancing With the Stars.” On this season of the reality competition show, Emma Slater teams up with “90210” actors Trevor Donovan and Sasha Farber along with “Legally Blonde” actress Selma Blair. The reality competition show recently moved from its home on ABC to Disney’s streaming service, Disney+, and airs every Monday night at 8pm ET.
The two also collaborated on choreographing Alexis Warr and Carter Williams’ samba routine for the “So You Think You Can Dance” finale.
“I couldn’t be more grateful to have been a part of this season and for @sashafarber1 and I to choreograph again for tonight’s finale,” Slater wrote on Instagram. “This samba is absolutely one of our favorites and @alexis_warr & @carterwilliams02 you nailed it! Very talented.”
