Patrick Swayze and Lisa Niemi’s Iconic Dance at the 1994 World Music Awards
In 1994, Patrick Swayze and his wife, Lisa Niemi, delivered a truly unforgettable performance at the World Music Awards in Monte Carlo, watched by millions around the globe. It was the first time the couple danced together on international television—and they chose the powerful ballad “All The Man That I Need” for the occasion.
Patrick was already celebrated as one of Hollywood’s most talented male dancers, but when paired with Lisa—his wife and longtime choreographer—the two created pure magic on stage.
After being introduced by supermodel Claudia Schiffer, the couple stepped into the spotlight and delivered a stunning routine to Whitney Houston’s hit song. The performance held even more significance that night, as Whitney had just received the award for Best Selling Female Pop Artist.
The moment became a standout highlight of the evening, coming at a time when Patrick was still riding the wave of Dirty Dancing fame. Fans were thrilled to see him return to the dance floor in such a personal and passionate way.
If you missed it, watch closely—you’ll catch Whitney herself in the audience, beaming and applauding the couple’s performance. It’s a heartwarming moment between two beloved stars.
