    Bruce Springsteen goes 'Dancing in the Dark' onstage with daughter

    By Seth Abramovitch , The Hollywood Reporter

    In the classic 1985 video for his song "Dancing in the Dark," Bruce Springsteen picks a lucky girl out of the crowd to dance onstage with. (Those old enough to remember will know the girl was none other than Courteney Cox.)

    But at The Boss's concert on Thursday night before 10,000 Parisian fans, it was another lucky young lady who took her place: his daughter Jessica Springsteen.

    VIDEO: Bruce Springsteen and his mother do "Courteney Cox dance" at Philly show

    Jessica, born seven years after that video was shot, is now 20 years old, and a nationally-ranked equestrian on the reserve list to compete for the U.S. at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. She also is a student at Duke University, where she majors in psychology.

    With features that call to mind both her father as well as her mother -- E Street Band member Patti Scialfa -- the second of Springsteen's three children was captured by cellphone cameras being coaxed onstage, where she waltzed with her legendary rocker dad after he mimed an introduction to the crowd.

    Wearing matching black vests, the two twirled and laughed before Bruce finally scooped Jessica off her feet and led her into the wings.

    Watch them dance in the video below.
