Courteney Cox Shreds on Drums to Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'!
COURTENEY COX DRUMS UP A STORM: THE FRIENDS ALUMNA'S UNEXPECTED MUSIC TALENT
In a shocking turn of events, Courteney Cox has proven she's not just a pretty face - or at least, not just one with impressive acting chops. The 61-year-old Friends alum has been keeping her fans on their toes with her secret talent for drumming, and we can't get enough of it!
Cox's Instagram followers went wild when she shared a video of herself jamming to Nirvana's classic anthem "Smells Like Teen Spirit." With over 20.8 million followers, the response was overwhelming, with many fans praising Cox's raw talent. The post has been flooded with comments from fellow celebrities, including Rita Wilson, Olivia Munn, and Dax Shepard, who all sang her praises.
But what's even more surprising is that Courteney only picked up drumming in February! She's a natural, if you ask us. And it looks like she's got some serious skills to boot - or should we say, sticks? Her impressive performance has left fans wondering how she's managed to keep this talent under wraps for so long.
As it turns out, Cox's secret weapon is none other than Richard "Office Drummer" Ray, a talented Twitch streamer who's been helping her hone her skills. According to Cox, he's not only a skilled drummer but also her "mood booster and conductor." Talk about a match made in heaven!
But don't just take our word for it - Courteney's fans are going wild over her drumming skills. One Instagram user quipped, "You're not just playing the drums, you're owning them! Rockstar!" Another fan shared a GIF of Jennifer Aniston behind a drum kit from Friends, with the caption, "Monica bang!"
It seems that Courteney's love affair with music began long before she picked up the sticks. She's been performing to various songs on her social media channels for months now, including Justin Bieber's "Daisies" and AC/DC's "Back in Black." And if you thought that was impressive, wait until you hear about her skills on the piano!
Cox has been sharing videos of herself jamming with fellow celebrities like Elton John, Brandi Carlile, Ed Sheeran, and Natasha Bedingfield. Who knew she had such a knack for music? It's no wonder she's won multiple awards for her acting career - she's got talent oozing out of every pore!
But what's perhaps the most surprising thing about Courteney Cox's musical talents is that they were inspired by none other than disco legends. According to Dave Grohl, Nirvana's drummer, his iconic riffs from their album "Nevermind" were actually inspired by disco bands like The Gap Band and Cameo. Talk about a hidden talent!
As for Courteney's personal life, it seems she's got love on her mind. She was spotted attending the US Open tennis match in Flushing Meadows with her boyfriend Johnny McDaid, a Snow Patrol guitarist-keyboard player. And if you thought that was cute, wait until you hear about their 21-year-old daughter Coco Arquette - she's currently studying drama at The New School in Manhattan!
But what's perhaps the most intriguing part of Courteney Cox's career is her upcoming role as Gail Weathers in Kevin Williamson's slasher Scream 7. She'll be reprising her iconic character alongside her ex-husband David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Matthew Lillard, Scott Foley, and Joel McHale.
As for what's next for Courteney Cox, it seems she's got a lot on the plate. Not only is she set to star in Scream 7 but also run her luxury home and body care company Homecourt, which she co-founded with former L'Oréal exec Sarah Jahnke in 2022.
With her drumming skills and upcoming projects, it seems Courteney Cox is ready to take on the world - one beat at a time.
