It has become known what role Brigitte Macron was given in Emily in Paris: the First Lady of France appeared for 30 seconds. Video

First Lady of France Brigitte Macron starred in a cameo role in the popular Netflix series "Emily in Paris". New episodes of the show's fourth season were released yesterday, September 12.

71-year-old Madame Macron, who in the past taught theater arts to the current French President Emmanuel Macron, appeared in the seventh episode as herself. In this scene, the main character Emily, played by actress Lily Collins, approaches the first lady in a restaurant to ask her to take selfies together.

Pushing her bodyguard away, Madame Brigitte happily complies with the request and says, "Emily, it's you!". She then tells her friends, "I follow her on Instagram." After the American woman says how much she adores France, Macron replies: "And my country loves you, Emily".

The star takes a photo with her colleague Genevieve and adds the hashtags #FirstLadiesWhoLunch and #makeiticonic, the slogan of President Macron's campaign to attract foreign investors to France.

The show, which centers on Chicago-born American Emily Cooper moving to the French capital, has become the most popular show on Netflix in 2020. However, apart from loyal fans, it has also attracted many critics for portraying a stereotypical image of Paris. In the fourth season, Emily, played by the daughter of British pop star Phil Collins, travels to Rome in search of new adventures.

Recall, the American star said in an interview with ELLE: "She (Brigitte Macron - Ed.) is a big fan of the show and took the mention of her in the first season with great humor.... It was an honor and a real joy to star with her." The head producer noted that the French first lady has a talent for acting. Details - in our material.
