You sat on PS lap! No one can take that from you! Despite the fact he sent those gorgeous mirrors to everyone. Fabulous story, thank you so much for sharing a little bit with us during these times! It is so appreciated!
To a young gay teen, in a far away land, way back in the mid 90s, seeing you on screen was such an inspiration along with the rest of the cast of To Wong Foo. Thank you for the memories and continued inspiration. Love from Ireland xxx
@@alexysq2660 Well yes, Ireland (we only say Éire if we are speaking in the Irish language) as most of the western world has obviously changed thankfully but I'm speaking of 25 years ago, at a particularly impressionable point in my life when seeing movies like this was a rareity.
A jewler can polish that out for you. They have specialty abrasive creams of different degrees and tools to do specific small areas. I took a jewlers class in Art University, thats how I know.
I was constantly told during my younger years that I resemble Patrick Swayze, part of the reason why I went to see the movie, is so I could see what I would look like in drag! Lol. Love you Miss Coco.
Patrick was an absolute gentleman, but he was funny too. I worked with him on "Ghosts" for a few days. He was carrying around this huge VHS recorder and recording behind the scenes. One day I stopped at a health food store and bought a huge bag of dried dates, nuts, prunes and other stuff. I was munching on it at lunch the next when he shoved the camera in my face and said, "You are going to SHIT tomorrow." I was mortified. But who cares. I'm in Patrick Swayze's home movies.
I can't tell you enough how much these videos mean to me. You're a very calming presence in these chaotic times. Thank you for making time for us every day! You've got way too much talent for one being, Coco.
That was a lovely story. Thank you for sharing. I had such a huge crush on Patrick Swayze as a kid. I hadn't realized you were in that film until much later in life. For me, my first exposure to the world of Coco was Trick. 🙂
This story, the photo, the note, and the mirror are PROOF that he was not only a gentleman and beautiful soul but he could spot another beautiful soul easily 😚😚😚😚😚
I just watched To Wong Foo again for the first time in years. I didn't realize you were the queen I always focused on during the opening scene until I saw your name! Thank you for sharing this!
Oh my goodness!! I've loved To Wong Fu for yearssss, and when I rewatched it recently I thought your character looked familiar!! Wow!! I'm so blown away, thank you so much for sharing this!! Whenever I rewatch Wong Fu I'll remember this great story!!
He was such an amazing person and talent. It's so awesome you got to work in a movie with him and that he gave you this wonderful gift. That photo of you two is priceless too. And yes you're right it's just things and our time here seems to go by so quickly. It's important to be grateful and thankful for what we have.
The memories of the times you got to spend with Patrick Swayze is the best part. I just saw a video of a young man interviewing a woman in her 70’s asking for advice to the younger generation and she said, “ …don’t focus on the (material) stuff. Focus on the people in your life and the memories you created. I have a big house full of nice things but all my kids have small houses and don’t want any of it. “
This was perfect, esp Hedda bringing us to reality! I was so lucky many years ago to meet Salvatore, my Italian bf who got on bended knee at his Bronx Italian Family home to ask me to grow old with him. I was so honored to say yes. I only had a short time with him since I lost him to hate,but I cherish as you say the little things. He grew,grew y'all, roses for me himself. I would save each one even after it dried up,the sent so making me think of him. I miss him with so much intensity, and yes I know it is a sad story, but I am lucky. I met a man who taught me love ,and that makes me wealthy.
I love that moment on the runway at the beginning of the movie when you crushed the cup in PS's face. The rivalry that was suggested. Lol. So nice that you actually had a lovely friendship.
Too Wong Foo ( thanks for everything) was a favorite of mine and holds the most amazing memories . When I watch it, I think about the most memorable times, and very special friendships I made that I still hold near and dear to my heart. I was a hairdresser at the time, and was asked to help with hair and makeup for a drag show in my home state of CT. I hated doing up do's and by the time I left the last show, I perfected them 😄 So grateful for the memories and the most amazing people who remain friends to this day.
Oh Coco, what a wonderful and precious memory you have of a true gentleman, and I've heard many times before, that he truly was a lovely and kind man, he's sorely missed. Love you Coco 💜
Love To Wong Foo. Always thought you were lovely and talented. Especially in Trick and Girls Will Be Girls. Patrick always seemed very kind and professional. Very sweet how you 2 hadda great memory and how he credited you and the other performers for helping him with his character. Keep up the great work Miss Peru. Lotsa love out to ya.
That was very sweet of him to gift you ladies. Patrick Swayze was such a babe and a beautiful person. I love these stories Miss Coco, please keep them coming. 💖
Coco you are so sweet!Loved that story.You are right the memories more than the things attached them are what is important.Still that was so nice that Patrick Swayze sent you and your “sisters” a gift with a sweet note.RIP Patrick.
Lovely story about Patrick Swayze. Your compact story echoed my own approach to cleaning. I have a small collection of antique compacts, and I did exactly what you did -- switched products and ended up removing some of the patina. I never can leave things alone...
Too wong foo got me through so much growing up. One of the reasons I enjoy road trips now. ❤❤❤and there is still nothing more better than a day with the girls‼️❤️❤️❤️
I love the story of Patrick swayze and his gift. Too Wong foo is one of my parents favorite movies I remember seeing it in the theatre way back when. As well as renting it alot. Its one of those movies I never tire of much like the movie Pleasantville. Both hold special memories for me.
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything was the best damn movie! It is one of my favorites. Loved hearing you talk about this, Coco ❤️❤️❤️ by the way, Patrick was right 😘
I agree with with what Patrick wrote, "too much talent for one being". Even if he had sent a gift to 100+ others, it doesn't in any way lessen your gift, or the fact he wrote a lovely(true) note with it. You are a special lady.
The scratch can be polished out. That story about your mom reminds me of Paula Poundstone speaking of breaking a Flinstones gas station glass and her mom announcing " that does it , we can't have nice things"!
Thank you for sharing! I had a pretty terrible experience today while walking out of Walmart.. let's just say a guy decided to call me a bigoted name as I was walking by. Anyway, this helped me to feel better. Thank you.. and that is VERY freaking cool about Patrick Swayze. Love you, Cocoa.
Too bad that shithole had to show his arse while u were, like the others there, simply trying to purchase things to keep themselves alive. Coco's story helps us recall that many people, like Patrick Swayze, however, are good and kind. A virtual hug to you!
You CAN feel good! Because YOU were out doing your things you needed to do, just being yourself, no hiding, no pretending. This guy calling you names cannot feel good about himself. In fact he deserves pity, he must be very insecure about himself, feeling the need to embarrass himself putting someone else down. Plus during this time of cirsis when to most of us even simple things like shopping are stressful, he is adding stress to the world with super unimportant remarks not helping anyone. However most of the damage he does to himself, with anger and rage towards someone he does not know. He let it out but it is all inside of him. THIS will definetly not help him boost his immune system! I believe, for this one who threw bs at you, 2 or 3 or more others who saw you were admiring you or you were an inspiration to them. YOU add color, diversity and openness to the world and it shows. L❤️VE is a healing power and immune booster. How good to have you, simply running your errands (or whatever) the way you simply ARE and only by that, YOU made the world a better place in just that instance. And: totally agree these 5 to 8 minutes of Coco are invaluable 😍
These videos are bringing me so much light to my life in these uncertain times. You are wonderful Miss Coco, and I wish you and your loved ones good health. To anyone reading, I wish you all the same. Stay safe, all
Not sure if you read your comments, but I hope you do because, I would like to tell you how much your videos mean to me right now. I work in a grocery store, and it is such a stressful time to be going to work. They just started taking our temperatures at the door before we can go into the store. Your video today reminded me of when I first saw this movie. I remember during the credits hearing Cyndi Lauper singing Girls Just Want to Have Fun remade into more of a reggae sound . I loved it! Just rewatched her video for the song and LOVE seeing you there with her. Can you please share with us on one of your daily videos how that experience was? I love Cyndi and I love you ❤️ Thank you again for all the joy you bring!!!
Oh my God you are so lucky he was such a sweet person! I've heard that from so many people. How lucky we are you? We miss you Patrick Swayze. If you want to watch Roadhouse right now.
I was in middle school when Too Wong Foo came out. I was battling my sexsulitu but I knew gay life was for me. I remember your scene with you crushing the cup.... it is... will always be iconic. I'm so happy you met him. This made me tear up. Memories are the most valuable treasure one can have.
What a relief in seeing your video pop up! 💕 A highlight to my day! You’ve lived the most amazing life, and you can fix that folded paper if you set it under a heavy cookbook or two for a few days!
Patrick Swayze was such a true gentleman. And the movie, To Wong Foo, helped popularize Drag culture. One can easily say that it greatly boosted the Drag Queen, and also by association, the gay community's reputation greatly in popular culture.
I've put on so much weight since this lockdown if Patrick Swayze pulled me onto his lap, he'd need five backup dancers and a high tension wire to pull me off.
Love you!!! Friends of my parents, back in Buffalo , NY personally knew Patrick Swayze because of dance classes. And neighbors in Buffalo, NY were friends with Chuck Mangione....
The fact that PS sent that gift to all of you doesn’t negate the grandness of his gesture!! Very nice gift from a gentleman.
They were like bridesmaid gifts. You were ALL loved.
*@Lucinda Nichols* So true; and so, beautifully, well-said ({: D ...!

Thank you, all, for you sweet comments. They mean the world to me!
A beautiful, touching and wise story with much truth,Thank you Miss Coco Peru for sharing.
You mean a whole lot to us Miss Coco...
I swear every time I get mad I just see you crushing that plastic cup! XD lol Thank you for all the laughs
Miss Coco, I have just now discovered your channel. Wanted to say hello from Alabama and love your videos.

2:28 - You always were and still are what they called (back in the day) "well put together".
Patrick is so right, too much talent to one being...
I loved that movie so much and I love this story. Everyone says he was a true gentleman. 💖

You are blessed to have that "flashdance" memory Coco with Patrick 💌
You know what Coco? Girl, you've got a book in you. You're life is so interesting!! Great story!! Love you!!
Don't look back, Ashley. It tears at your heart and tears at your heart until all you can do is look back.

take the mirror to a good jeweler and see if it can be buffed up.
I LOVE that movie and it's so nice to hear a little inside info on the relationship between the actors. Thanks for sharing.
What a gift! Not the gift from Tiffany, but to be an inspiration to Patrick Swayze! 💕💕
Wow I got major goosebumps while you read his note!!!
AWE WHAT A LOVELY STORY XO
To Wong Foo is one of my favorites!!! 💜 When I found you through Garrett Watts I was like holy crap!!!
Legendary film. Legendary queen.💕💕

You have lived an amazing life. You continue to inspire people like me. Thank you.

I had the chance to meet PS back when Dirty Dancing came out & you’re right, a genuinely nice person.
I love too Wong fo thanks for everything! It’s my favorite movie. I love Patrick Swayze so much!
You could read a box of cereal and I would be riveted. PS ain't lying. Love this, thank you!💗✨
What a classy man PS.
Thank you CoCo 🥰
You will be part of my quarantine memories.🙏
LOL love that story - see it Tiffany's can buff out the scratches. Beautiful gift and I will still believe that only you got one :)
Patrick Swayze was such a true gentleman.
And the movie, To Wong Foo, helped popularize Drag culture. One can easily say that it greatly boosted the Drag Queen, and also by association, the gay community's reputation greatly in popular culture.
Wow Coco,you are so lucky,my fav.artist @ the time
I've put on so much weight since this lockdown if Patrick Swayze pulled me onto his lap, he'd need five backup dancers and a high tension wire to pull me off.
