9 French-Influenced Shows and Movies To Watch While You Wait For Season 2 Of Emily in Paris
Season 2 of Emily in Paris likely won’t hit Netflix for a good long while, but if you’re craving more Paris-inflected fish-out-of-water stories in the meantime, there’s plenty of fare out there for you….



Adjust your berets and dig your Picasso-style striped shirts out of the back of the closet, because the smash-hit Netflix series Emily in Paris is coming back for a second season.
While we—okay, I—have criticized elements of the show in the past (most notably its off-putting fatphobia), it’s still thrilling to hear that we’ll be getting a whole new season of Emily’s Parisian romps to binge-watch; after all, who among us is too good for the sugary-sweet escapism of a Darren Star production?
Season 2 of Emily in Paris likely won’t hit Netflix for a good long while, given the restrictions that COVID-19 has placed on many TV and film productions, but if you’re craving more Paris-inflected fish-out-of-water stories in the meantime, there’s plenty of fare out there for you. Below, find a list of the best TV shows and movies about Americans succumbing to the siren call of Paris.
-
Funny Face (1957). This musical rom-com par excellence features a dashing photographer (Fred Astaire) who whisks a shy bookstore employee (Audrey Hepburn) off to Paris. Spoiler: romance ensues.
-
An American in Paris (1951). The title pretty much says it all! This Gershwin musical comedy about a set of Parisian expats is sure to make you long for Paree.
-
Charade (1963). Yet another Audrey-Hepburn-in-Paris vehicle, and really, who can go wrong with those?
-
2 Days in Paris (2007). A neurotic New Yorker follows his freewheeling French girlfriend to her native Paris and is overwhelmed by, well, pretty much everything in this sweet, slightly sad film.
-
Before Sunset (2004). Once again, an American man is in love with the enchanting Julie Delpy. How could you not be? (Bonus points for inclusion of Paris’s greatest bookstore, Shakespeare and Company.)
-
Passport to Paris (1999). The Olsen twins manage to flirt with French boys and implement a proposal for clean drinking water at the French embassy in this undeniably charming kids movie. Not too shabby!
-
Something’s Gotta Give (2003). Okay, maybe it’s a reach, but (spoiler): the end of the film finds Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson rekindling their love in the City of Lights.
-
Sex and the City, Seasons 2 and 6 (1999 and 2004). Not only does protagonist Carrie Bradshaw find herself living in Paris in the show’s final season, but she also tries to seduce her soi-disant boyfriend Mr. Big earlier in the series by coming over in a beret with bags of McDonald’s (and, inevitably, whipping les frites at the wall when he tells her she shouldn’t follow him to Paris).
-
Le Divorce (2003). When Kate Hudson rushes to her pregnant Parisian sister’s side in the wake of her titular divorce, a whole lot of oh-so-French shenanigans ensue.

Cardi B’s $60K Birkin Bag Gets The ‘Mommy Treatment’ As Daughter Unleashes Her Creativity

In a moment of relatable frustration, Cardi B took to Instagram to share a funny yet surprising story about her expensive $60,000 Birkin bag, one of her favorite items from her luxury collection. Known for her bold personality and honest social media posts, Cardi revealed that one of her daughters had turned the fancy purse into a makeshift canvas, drawing a heart on it without permission. “Look what my daughter did to my purse,” Cardi said dramatically in her Instagram Story, showing off the iconic bag to her followers. “I literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” she exclaimed, still amazed by the unexpected ‘artwork’ from her little girl.
Although she was frustrated, the mom of three tried to take it all in stride, at least for the moment. Cardi values her hard-earned luxury items, especially her growing collection of high end bags. However, as any parent knows, kids have a skill for creating chaos even in the most cherished parts of life. For Cardi, that chaos includes her high-priced accessories. The post quickly gained attention online, with fans sympathizing with Cardi’s situation. Many found humor in the irony of the event, while others offered support, pointing out that such moments are just part of the unpredictable journey of parenthood. Cardi has previously emphasized that family is her top priority, even if it means dealing with some messiness.

But Cardi’s frustration didn’t stop there. She later took to Twitter to respond to comments made by Kanye West regarding her staying power in the spotlight. While she didn’t mention him directly, her tweet, “7 years 1 album… STILL being a topic and STILL being asked about my music!!!” sent a clear message. She confidently asserted her spot in the entertainment world, clarifying that her fans, known as “The Brim,” are not going anywhere. In the end, whether it’s a damaged Birkin bag or dealing with critics, Cardi B repeatedly shows that she remains unfazed by the ups and downs of fame, always staying true to herself and her family.

Kai Cenat Powers Up The BAPE By KidSuper Collection, Bringing Bold Streetwear Vision to Life

The collaboration between BAPE by KidSuper and Kai Cenat has officially launched, and it’s making waves in the streetwear world. Released on April 12, the BAPE by KidSuper collection represents a blend of BAPE’s iconic style from Japan with the vibrant, energetic vibe of KidSuper, which has its roots in Brooklyn. This partnership is particularly significant for KidSuper’s founder, Colm Dillane, who started his journey selling handmade t-shirts outside BAPE stores. Now, he’s a key creative partner with the legendary brand. What sets this collection apart is its deep connection to culture.
Social media star Kai Cenat plays a major role in promoting the collection, bringing a youthful energy that perfectly matches the spirit of the collaboration. The release captures a mix of past influences and modern style, appealing directly to today’s trend-conscious audience. The first look at the collection was revealed during Paris Fashion Week at KidSuper’s Fall/Winter 2025 show, titled “From a Place I Have Never Been.” This wasn’t just a typical fashion show; it was an immersive experience featuring oversized clothing, bright colors, and a comic-inspired theme celebrating youth, memories, and imagination. These ideas are reflected in every piece of the collection, from graphic t-shirts to special sneakers, jackets, and clogs, making each item feel like a unique piece of art.

In a time when collaborations are common, the BAPE by KidSuper collection stands out by tapping into the core of street culture and creativity. It’s a collection that many collectors and trendsetters are going to want to have.
