It appears Alfonso Ribeiro was not doing the Carlton dance when he heard about Jada Pinkett Smith's recent revelation about him.

After the Red Table Talk star, 47, said she went on a date with Ribeiro before meeting husband Will Smith, the "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" alum, 47, denied her recollection on Twitter Monday.

“Sorry Jada. Your memory is a little off,” Ribeiro clarified to his former “A Different World” costar.

"We went to lunch with your family when we both guest starred on "A Different World" the year before you became a regular," the "America's Funniest Home Videos" host added.

Pinkett Smith quickly responded to Ribeiro, writing, “My fault Alf… I thought it was a date.”

During Monday's premiere of her Facebook Watch series Red Table Talk, the actress told husband Will, daughter Willow and mother Adrienne Banfield-Jones about her early outing with Ribeiro. "I think I went on one date together," she said as Will, 50, added: "And he, like, took you on a motorcycle or something."

Jada continued, “My memory is: I dated a lot of people, but we went on one date.”

Though Ribeiro kept Pinkett Smith honest about their non-existent date, he did help her meet her future spouse.

"I remember, you were on A Different World, and Alfonso knew everybody," Will said. "When I saw you on Different World, it was that thing and I don't know what it is, the bell rings. And I knew that there was something in our energy that would be magic."

The pair got to know each other while Smith was still married to Sheree Zampino — with whom he shares son Trey, 25 — but both he and Pinkett Smith insist they never cheated. They later married in December 1997, after he split from Zampario, now 50, in late 1995.

In 2022, Georgia Power projected its winter peak electricity demand would grow by about 400 megawatts by 2031. Since then, Georgia has experienced a boom of data centers, which require a large load of electricty to run, and Georgia Power's recent forecast shows peak demand growing by 20 times the 400-megawatt estimate from just three years ago.
