He gained worldwide exposure alongside Michael Jackson during the performer’s celebrated Pepsi commercial in the early ‘80s. In 1984, Alfonso landed the role of Rick Schroder’s sidekick and best friend on “Silver Spoons.” In the years since, Ribeiro has co-starred in several hit scripted series, including “In the House” and appeared in reality shows such as “Dancing with the Stars” and “The Singing Bee,” in addition to winning “Celebrity Duets,” which partnered him with Grammy® award-winning vocalists.
