The remarkable dance performed by Patrick Swayze and his wife, Lisa, at the 1994 World Music Awards remains etched in memory

In 1994, Patrick Swayze and his wife, Lisa Niemi, delivered a stunning performance at the World Music Awards in Monte Carlo, captivating an audience of millions. This marked their debut dancing together on international television, and they selected the powerful ballad “All The Man That I Need” for their routine.

Renowned as one of the top male dancers in film, Patrick’s synergy with his wife, who is also his choreographer, created an unstoppable duo that showcased their remarkable talent.

Following an introduction by supermodel Claudia Schiffer, the pair graced the stage to present an unforgettable dance performance featuring Whitney Houston’s “All The Man I Need”. This tribute held particular significance, as Whitney had recently been awarded the title of Best Selling Female Pop Artist that night.

The performance occurred a few years after the premiere of Dirty Dancing, during a peak period in Patrick Swayze’s career. His charismatic presence and the captivating dance routine turned this moment into a highlight of the evening, generating considerable buzz and enthusiasm among fans.

Did you catch Whitney Houston in the audience celebrating after the performance? If you missed it, be sure to rewatch, it’s a truly special moment shared between these two icons! The clip takes on an even deeper emotional resonance following Patrick Swayze’s death in 2009. Their fluid dance moves highlight the profound bond that Patrick and Lisa shared, a love that was evident throughout their 34 years of marriage.

Lisa and Patrick first connected as teenagers when they met at Patrick’s mother’s dance school in Houston. They tied the knot in 1975, just a year after Lisa completed her training at the Houston Ballet Dance Company, and four years prior to Patrick’s film debut in Skatetown, USA.

Throughout the 1970s, they chased their dance dreams in New York City. In 2003, Lisa took on multiple roles as she wrote, directed, and starred in One Last Dance, a film that reflected their experiences and challenges as dancers.

Although Lisa didn’t participate in Dirty Dancing, Patrick composed the song “She’s Like The Wind” in her honor, expressing how fortunate he felt to have such a remarkable partner by his side. Reflecting on their relationship, he once remarked: “I felt incredibly fortunate to have a woman who believes I’m the best thing ever”.

My son stays quiet as his wife insults me — But he soon teaches her a lesson in front of guests

A woman named Kate posted a story of how her son chose silence instead of defending her when his wife insulted her.

Namely, Kate loved to cook, but since her husband’s passing things changed and she somehow lost hold of that part of her. However, whenever a holiday was around the corner she would prepare the most delicious dishes to her son John, especially for Christmas when he would always come for his annual roast dinner.

This year, however, was a bit different since John’s wife, Liz, attended the family dinner for the first time. The two dated for quite some time, but over the course of a couple of years, she would always spend Christmas at her parents’ house.

Kate woke up early because she knew she needed time to prepare the main course, which was a chicken with gravy on the side, all the side dishes and desserts that her son loved.

As she was preparing the food, Liz entered the kitchen with her phone in her hand and started looking around. At that moment, she made a face as though she smelled something terrible, but Kate, already sweating away, decided to ignore her and didn’t say a word.

Sadly, things turned for the worse when Liz suddenly exclaimed, “Hey, Kate, maybe we should order food. Not everyone wants what you’ve cooked. I don’t know if everyone enjoys your cooking, either. Every aspect of Christmas is supposed to be enjoyed by everyone. They should enjoy the food, too!”

As expected, Kate was shocked by her daughter-in-law’s harsh words.

“I saw John leaning against the archway, nibbling on a carrot. He altogether avoided my gaze, looking over me and out the window across the room. I held back my tears and bit my lip,” she wrote in her post.

As most of the guests arrived and sat on the table, it seemed like they all enjoyed the food Kate prepared for the night.

At one moment, John asked, “The food’s great, right? Everyone’s enjoying it?”

John’s uncle helped himself to another serving of roasted potatoes and asked, “Why wouldn’t we enjoy my sister’s food?”

“Because Liz said that the dinner might be ruined by Mom’s dishes. She wanted us to order in,” John explained.

“Nonsense!” Kate’s brother said as he dipped his potatoes into the gravy.

Hearing this, John looked at his mom and smiled. Kate then realized that her son didn’t react before because he was waiting for the right moment to teach his wife a lesson.

Liz turned red as everyone starred at her and Kate admitted that she even felt bad for her because it was her first Christmas with the family.

Later on, while packing the dishwasher and emptying dishes of food, Liz approached Kate.

“Kate, I’m sorry,” she said. “I was so wrong to do what I did. I am sorry, please understand.”

“Understand what?” Kate asked her.

“I only said that because John loves your food. He always talks about how you make all these special things for him. I can’t make a basic mac and cheese without him saying yours is better. I looked at the food, smelt all the delicious smells from this kitchen, and panicked.”

“Liz, you should know that a boy and his mother’s food is a relationship in and of itself,” Kate said with a laughter as she tried to diffuse the tension. “I can teach you how to cook just like me. My mother taught me everything I know.”

“Really?” Liz asked. “Even after I’ve been so horrible?”

“Yes,” Kate replied.

Thankfully, Kate understood that Liz’s intention wasn’t a nasty one, she simply felt threatened by her mother-in-law, but she soon learned it was for no reason.

Kate then took Liz to the Christmas tree and handed her the present she bough for her.
