Why Courteney Cox Didn't Let Her Daughter Coco Start Acting As A Child

Coco Arquette has artistic blood running through her veins. Courteney Cox often flaunts Coco’s voice on Instagram, showing she’s confident enough to sing with icons like Ed Sheeran and Elton John. Her parents couldn’t be more proud. “She’s an incredible singer and she loves acting,” David Arquette told ET in 2021. A career in the industry isn’t what Cox had envisioned for her daughter, though she’ll support her either way.

“I don’t think I’ll have a choice because she’s such a showgirl,” Cox said on “Anderson Live” in 2012. “She’s really, um, she’s out there.” Arquette was on the same page regarding Coco’s upbringing. “We’ve made sure not to do anything professional and just … let her be a kid,” he said. But Arquette agrees with his ex-wife that Coco has a future in the entertainment industry. “It’s getting more serious now and, you know, the performances even are becoming more, you know, polished,” he gushed. “So it’s exciting to see.”

And she seems to have what it takes. Coco has proved to have the charisma necessary to make it in the business since she was itty-bitty, which Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest have witnessed firsthand. “I remember her always being funny, too,” Ripa told Cox on the episode of “Live with Kelly and Ryan” in March 2023. “You brought her here a couple of times years ago, she was little, but she has that charm and just great sense of humor.”
