Musical Moments

While there's no denying Courteney Cox and Coco Arquette have been bitten by the acting bug, it's clear music runs in the family as well.

In August 2021, Cox posted a sweet video of her daughter singing a cover of Adele's "Chasing Pavements" while she accompanied her on the keys.

She captioned the video: "I love my Coconut's voice."

Their previous mother-daughter duets include covers of Fleetwood Mac's "Silver Springs," and Taylor Swift''s "Cardigan."

TikTok Together

Cox is the definition of a "cool mom," but Arquette may think otherwise after the two busted a few moves for a brief TikTok dance.

"Wanna see your child lose their patience? Do a TikTok with them," the Friends star wrote when she posted the video to Instagram in January 2020, adding the hashtag "#familyaerobics."

The Fam's Getting Glam

Between scenes on set and getting ready for red carpets, Cox's spent plenty of time in the glam chair, but Arquette leveled up her look.

On Instagram, the actress posted a time-lapsed video of her daughter doing her makeup with the caption, "I asked Coco to do my make-up ... I guess you get what you pay for!"

Cox opened up on The Drew Barrymore Show about her daughter's longtime passion for fashion and makeup, saying, "People will say, 'Why do you let Coco wear so much makeup?' She's been wearing makeup forever, that is a self-expression for her."

She added, "She loves to dress up. She will dye her hair, it was purple a week ago, I think right now it's blonde underneath before it was blue."

Cox originally rocked the dress on the red carpet at the premiere of Snake Eyes in 1998 at the Paramount Theatre in Hollywood, California.
