Janet Hubert Is Not Happy About ‘Fresh Prince’ Reunion — to Put it Mildly

The Internet may have had the feels about the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reunion, but Aunt Viv did not.

Janet Hubert — the original Aunt Viv on the series that made Will Smith a superstar — took to Facebook to criticize the recent reunion of her one-time castmates, which was documented in photos posted to social media by Smith, Alfonso Ribeiro, and Tatyana Ali — and was also attended by Karyn Parsons, Joseph Marcell, and Hubert’s replacement, Daphne Reid. Now, remember that Hubert was fired from the show 24 years ago as you read her reaction.

“I know the media hoe Alphonso Ribero [sic] has posted his so called reunion photo,” Hubert, 61, wrote. “Folks keep telling me about it.” Things escalated quickly, with the actress writing, “[Ribeiro] was always the ass wipe for Will. There will never be a true reunion of the Fresh Prince. I have no interest in seeing any of these people on that kind of level.”

A statue of a celebrity is meant to be a tribute, but sometimes, these likenesses end up … not so flattering. Monuments erected in recent years to the actresses Lucille Ball and Marilyn Monroe and to the footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, among others, leave a little something to be desired. In some cases, fans revolted. And they probably should have in the case of the others, too.
