She’s best-known for playing Monica Geller in Friends, but before she hit the big time, Courteney Cox busted some moves in Bruce Springsteen’s Dancing In The Dark music video.
Now, 40 years on from the video’s release (yes, it really has been four decades), the actor has taken to social media to recreate the dance she did in the iconic video clip.
The Scream star has hopped aboard the current viral trend in which TikTok users are getting their parents to show how they used to dance in the the 1980s, to Bronski Beat’s Smalltown Boy.

However, Cox has done her own twist on it. In a post shared on Instagram, she begins by somewhat unenthusiastically dancing to the Bronski Beat tune, before shaking her head and ripping off her jacket to reveal a Bruce Springsteen T-shirt. She then recreates the moves she did in the Dancing In The Dark clip, before footage from the actual 1984 video is shown.
The classic video - which was directed by Scarface and The Untouchables filmmaker Brian De Palma and shot in Minnesota - saw The Boss playing in front of a live audience, before making eye contact with Cox and pulling her onto the stage for a boogie.
Friends were quick to comment on Cox’s video, with Friends co-star Jennifer Aniston sharing a series of emojis: “👏🏽💃🏼😂” and model Linda Evangelista writing: “Winner 👊🏻”
Actor Jennifer Garner agreed, writing: “You win! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️,” while Julianne Moore shared some clapping emojis: “👏👏👏👏👏” and Patricia Arquette wrote: “Kid’s still got it.”
Even Bronski Beat’s page left some emojis: “😂❤️😂”
In related news, Cox recently opened up about the heartbreaking loss of her Friends co-star Matthew Perry, sharing that she feels his presence frequently since his death last October.
