Alfonso Ribeiro is suing Epic Games for using his dance move in Fortnite
Since the advent of emotes in Fortnite, Epic Games has been adapting popular dance moves to be used as premium taunts in-game. This has also lead to the company finding themselves in legal hot water, with the rapper 2 Milly recently suing the company for selling his dance move as an emote. Now, another party has joined the lawsuit fray, with Alfonso Ribeiro also claiming that Epic Games has "stolen" his signature dance move, and is using it without asking for his permission. This move is called the Carlton dance, and in Fortnite, it's dubbed as the "Fresh" emote, seemingly a reference to Ribeiro starring on the TV show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. None of the prior allegations over these dances being in Fortnite have gone anywhere, yet, though it is not known if the "Carlton" is definitively copyrighted work to begin with, or if that copyright does not belong to Ribeiro, and instead lies with the company in charge of creating The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, where the dance originated.
