Courteney Cox grooves to the music of the 1980s.
Courteney Cox gained fame in 1984 by starring in Bruce Springsteen's music video for "Dancing in the Dark." Decades later, she recreated the iconic moment for a TikTok challenge, showing that she still has the groove inside her.
In the 1990s, Courteney Cox rose to prominence with her role in "Friends," which made her a household name. However, it was her appearance in Springsteen's music video that first introduced her to a broader audience. Back in 1984, Cox starred in the video for "Dancing in the Dark." Now, she's reenacting this memorable scene for a TikTok challenge.
A TikTok trend currently has users asking their mothers how they danced back in the 80s and sharing their responses. Cox, who has been sharing entertaining videos on Instagram and TikTok during the pandemic, couldn't resist joining in on the fun. Her video is titled "Dancing in the 80s... in the dark." Initially, she dances rather stiffly to "Smalltown Boy," but after a few beats, she tilts her head, takes off her jacket, and exposes the same Bruce Springsteen t-shirt she wore during the "Dancing in the Dark" video.
Cox's dance moves then become more lively and funky, and the clip transitions into the music video from 1984, where Springsteen can be seen inviting her and her pals to join him on stage at a live performance. This memorable performance paved the way for Cox's massive success, as she later became known for her roles in the "Scream" movies and the beloved sitcom "Friends."
Many fans showered Cox with praise for her video, including her "Friends" co-star Jennifer Aniston, who sent clapping and laughing emojis, as well as Julianne Moore, who gave her a thumbs up. Jennifer Garner even commented, "You win."
