Am I slaying this right?

Courteney Coxproved she can do it just as well as this generation!

In a hilarious video posted to her Instagram, theScreamactress, 58, transformed herself into a “Gen Z girl” — complete with pigtails and a cropped top.

In the clip, Cox scrolled through social media looking at pictures of Gen Z girls on the couch, as she said, “Lookat these Gen Z girls, so cute. I wanna do that.”

The video then cut to a short transformation montage set toSam Smith’s “Unholy,” where Cox showed closeup shots of her face as she put on a cat eye liner, contour, highlights and lipstick.

She also showed herself fixing her hair in stylish “Gen Z” pigtails and straightening parts of her hair to frame her face.

After going through her closet, she eventually stepped out in the final look: printed jeans and a white high-cropped top that showed off her bare midriff under a blue tie-dye baggy sweater.

Cox — who’s mom to 18-year-old daughterCoco Arquette— then whipped out her phone to take selfies, flashing the peace sign and sticking her tongue out as her two dogs watched her.

Cox jokingly captioned the post, “Am I slaying this right?”

In the video shared on Instagram, the actress asked the musician if they could mimic the unforgettable end-scene moment betweenPatrick SwayzeandJennifer Greyin the 1987 romantic drama.

However, instead ofCox taking the leap of faithinto McDaid’s arms, the funny video saw him attempting to jump into Cox’s as she moved out of the way.

“It’s ok we’re professionals,” Cox captioned the post.
