Emily In Paris fans have been left baffled over a bizarre guest appearance in the new series.
The second half of season four kicked off on Thursday as titular character Emily (Lily Collins) continues to navigate her romance with Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) as well face a new rival in the marketing agency.
However, viewers were left scratching their heads as Brigitte Macron popped up in one of the episodes, with one fan hailing her appearance as ‘wild’.
It was recently announced that the popular series will be diving into the world of politics thanks to a surprise appearance from the French First Lady, 71, with Brigitte seen snapping a selfie with the show stars.
And as she made her acting debut this week, viewers rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their reactions.
Expressing their surprise, they shared: ‘BRIGITTE MACRON IN AN EP OF EMILY IN PARIS IS WILD WTFFFFFFF.’
‘The first lady of France, Brigitte Macron, has a cameo in #EmilyInParis . LOL.
‘Brigitte Macron in Emily in Paris??! Wowwww ! Should I watch Emily in Paris?
‘IS BRIGITTE MACRON IN EMILY IN PARIS????HAHAHAHA WHAT THE F**K IS THIS I LOVE IT THO ICON BRIGITTE MACRON MA STAR.’
While many were confused over her guest role, others were loving her appearance. They shared: ‘brigitte macron being in emily in paris is iconic.’
‘Just watched this episode #EmilyInParis with Brigitte Macron – she seemed very natural playing herself.’
The scene in question saw Emily sitting with protégé (and potential love rival) Genevieve at lunch when they spot Brigitte sitting in the corner with other ladies.
Emily then approaches Brigitte’s table, telling her about her Instagram before declaring that she loves Brigitte’s country.

Brigitte then warmly returns the compliment before agreeing to take a snap with Emily and Genevieve.
In typical Emily style, the influencer soon takes to Instagram to share the snap of the trio, alongside the hashtags ‘#FirstLadiesWhoLunch’ and ‘#makeiticonic.’
It had been revealed that the wife of Emmanuel Macron, 46, wore her own clothing ‘with no particular instructions given to her’ by the series known for its fashion.
The former teacher opted for a double-breasted black blazer with gold buttons and paired the skirt suit with a £4,200 Dior Lady D-Joy bag.
Meanwhile, Ms Collins wore a vintage Yves Saint Laurent 1976 wool cape Tod’s Kate loafers, £780, a Delvaux Brillant Mini Teddy bag with a Marni mini skirt, £550, finishing the look off with a £495 Maison Michel wool dogtooth billy beret.
A cameo had been brewing since 2022 when Ms Collins and the programme’s creator, Darren Star, met Ms Macron at the Élysée Palace.
Ms Collins said: ‘She is a big fan of the show and took the mention of her in season one with great humour. This scene in season four is a wink and shooting with her was both an honour and a real joy.’

During series one, fans of the show saw Emily’s career take off when her social media post was shared by Brigitte.
The episode sees the marketing executive as she struggles to fit in at the company while working on a campaign for the company Vaga-Jeune.
Upon discovering that the French word for vagina, le vagin, is masculine, Emily shares her disappointment online, with the post eventually being reposted by the first lady.
Italian-French singer Carla Bruni had forwarded the meme to Brigitte, with the first lady seen sharing the post to her own feed, although viewers only see the back of her head.
The attention later sends Emily’s office into a frenzy and helps secure her position within the office.
Emily In Paris returned last month after a two-year hiatus and the first five episodes have been available since August 15
Emily In Paris returned last month after a two-year hiatus and the first five episodes have been available since August 15.
Viewers have had to wait almost an entire month for the second installment , which is dropping onto Netflix on September 11.
The latest season had a web of complex storylines to untangle, including Camille’s (Camille Razat) shocking pregnancy announcement to Emily’s intricate love triangle involving her chef neighbour Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and hunky Brit Alfie (Lucien Laviscount).
And Emily finally makes her choice, as she and Gabriel choose to explore their romance, and declare their love for one another during the mid-season finale.
In other relationship news, pregnant Camille and Athens-born Sofia, portrayed by Melia Kreiling, move in next door to Gabriel, but after struggling to make it work they end up going their separate ways.
The final episode ends in a shocking twist, as Camille goes to her gynaecologist for a check-up and learns the devastating truth that she was never expecting; the test was a false positive and her stress was behind her late period.
Netflix viewers have less than 24 hours to wait before they discover how Gabriel takes the news, and if his and Emily’s romance is the real deal.
