Alfonso Ribeiro has withdrawn his lawsuit against Epic Games, the makers of Fortnite, over the in-game dance move that mimicked his iconic “Carlton Dance.”

This isn’t the first time that a celebrity took legal action against the company. Rapper 2 Milly sued Epic for allegedly using his “Milly Rock” dance.
