'Fresh Prince Of Bel Air' Tell-All Planned By 'Aunt Viv' To Expose Will Smith And Fellow Castmates

"Fresh Prince Of Bel Air"

Former "Fresh Prince Of Bel Air" sitcom actress, Janet Hubert, who played the character Aunt Viv, but was later fired and replaced, is threatening to do a tell-all about the show's star, Will Smith and fellow castmates. Karyn Parsons, who played the character Hillary, held a charity event with guests Smith, Alfonso Ribeiro (Carlton) and Tatyana Ali (Ashley). A photo of the group was posted on social networking, with talk of a reunion.

Hubert was not amused by the photo and sounded off online about the event, "I know the media hoe Alphonso Ribero [sic] has posted his so called reunion photo. Folks keep telling me about it. [Ribeiro] was always the a*s 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."

Hubert further stated, "I am not offended in the least, by this photo… it was an event for Karen’s charity. It does however prompt me to take some meetings in Hollywood to pitch my memoir PERFECTION IS NOT A SITCOM MOM, and tell of the behind the scenes story before I leave this earth.”

It's no secret Hubert is bitter towards Smith, who had her fired, as she took issue with his diva antics and the show's emphasis being place on his character Will. Hubert has also implied Smith vindictively had her blacklisted in Hollywood, ruining her career. The show was comprised of an ensemble cast and many characters shone brightly. They all had a part to play and each contributed in making the show a massive success.

March 29, 2017 - Time heals all wounds … except the rift between Janet Hubert and her “Fresh Prince” co-stars, including Will Smith. 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.”

She didn’t stop there, adding, “I am not offended in the least, by this photo… it was an event for Karen’s charity. It does however prompt me to take some meetings in Hollywood to pitch my memoir PERFECTION IS NOT A SITCOM MOM, and tell of the behind the scenes story before I leave this earth.” Well, then.

Ribeiro shared a photo of the gang back together again — and looking great — on Monday, writing, “Always amazing to spend an afternoon with my Fresh Prince family. Wishing that James Avery was still with us to make this complete.” Avery, who played Uncle Phil, died in 2013. Smith also posted a reunion photo, noting that he was at “lunch with my BFFs.” And Tatyana called it a reunion with her “family”...
