“Well now he decided he wants to be an actor too. So he’s acting, and now he’s, you know, taking his own pieces here and there.”

SOUNDBITE (English) Richard Gere, actor:

(Reporter: “Could you work with him, do you think?”)

11. SOUNDBITE (English) Lucas Bravo, actor – on the next season of “Emily in Paris”:
“I think this one is the most fun I had, you know, to be honest, there was a moment through season three where I was questioning if I still had the stamina with this character and and wanted to see him through that and do the search and everything and in season four, they wrote something that really brought me back to life. And, I jumped into super prepared and it super worked out that super everything. And, we created a new connection with Lily that allowed us to to bring their connection to Gabriel’s and Emily’s connection further. And, it’s a season of, bursting absence. So there’s some fighting, there’s some loving, there’s some passion. I love this season. I can’t wait for you to discover it.”

It’s very special so I’m happy to support.”

16. SOUNDBITE (English) Carla Bruni, recording artist/model – on #MeToo:
“Well, it was time, you know, I would say, you know, a woman has been abused for a very, very long time, you know, and it’s unacceptable of course. So, for me, it’s a healthy movement.”
(Reporter: “It’s quite moving, isn’t it, to see the statements on the carpets as well?”)
“Yes, very much, very much. But what I like the most is that, you know, it might scare all these predators, you know, and that is a good thing, you know, because they don’t like to be exposed. You know, those people are people from the shadows, you know. So I believe this kind of movement protects many women just by, putting the predators in danger.”
