Seventy-five-year-old Suzanne Somers is an icon. Seriously — the workout guru is fun, inspiring, and gorgeous. She proved her cultural relevance this week in an Instagram video posted with Courteney Cox, and if you haven’t seen it yet, you’re going to want to take a brief pause here. 

In the vid, which Cox and Somers both shared, the two ’90s It-Girls grill turkey burgers while using ThighMasters. Yep, ThighMasters! (You may recall Somers was once known for her “hurts so good” exercise routines with the tool.)

“You’re gonna love these turkey burgers,” Cox says as she adds a slice of cheese onto the burgers, which also get topped with peppers and onions.

Somers looks on, casually crushing the ThighMaster without even breaking a sweat. “I love them! I love them already!” she says, which is pretty much my exact reaction anytime someone cooks for me. 

Cox is no stranger to the kitchen (or, rather, the grill) — she’s a home goods entrepreneur, with the meticulously organized utensil drawer to prove it. Is this video a hint at a future collaboration, or a new product launch? Neither woman gave any clues, but it sure makes for some quality social media content.

“What a combo!” Somers wrote in her IG caption. “Turkey Burger ThighMasters!” While I’m definitely down to grill and tone, I think the true combo here is Cox and Somers. Sign me up for whatever they’re serving next.
