Will Smith and Tatyana Ali Recreate Iconic Fresh Prince Dance with Doechii's Help

"35 years in the making for this dance to trend."

Will Smith and Tatyana Ali, the beloved cousins Will and Ashley from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, reunited on Friday to recreate a classic moment from the show's pilot episode.

In the memorable scene, Ali dances to music with headphones on, unaware that Will is behind her, copying her moves. The dance has recently gone viral on TikTok, with Smith himself sharing the original clip earlier this month, and Max, where the show is available for streaming, following suit. The viral videos use the song "Anxiety" by Doechii as the background music.

So, it was only fitting that Doechii joined Smith and Ali for their fresh take on the iconic dance.

Smith shared the new video with the caption, "Waited 35 years for this dance to trend."

Ali, who made appearances in Bel-Air, the dramatic reboot of The Fresh Prince on Peacock, played Mrs. Hughes, the English teacher to Ashley (Akira Akbar) in the new series. Reflecting on her experience on the Bel-Air set, Ali told E! News in February 2023, "When I got to the set and was actually at Bel-Air Academy, with all the kids walking by in their uniforms, it was crazy. It was like nothing I’ve ever experienced. The emotional, psychological stuff that went on was weird in a really good way."

Looking back on her time on the original series, Ali shared nothing but fond memories. "We just had so much fun. It was a great place to grow up," she told PEOPLE in August 2024. "I know, especially now, that's not everybody’s story—certainly not every child actor’s story. But it was a really supportive environment for me, and they’re my family. I love them."

In addition to the dance video, the same day, Smith revealed plans to release his first full-length album in over two decades. Based on a True Story will feature collaborations with DJ Jazzy Jeff, Big Sean, Teyana Taylor, Jac Ross, and his son Jaden, who appears on the track "Work of Art." The album is set to drop on March 28.
