‘Emily in Paris’ star says he partly understands why critics panned the ‘cliché’ Netflix show
Despite being a huge hit for Netflix, critics across the board (particularly French critics) have slammed the show for indulging in outdated and offensive stereotypes that present Parisians as rude, sexist, and elitist.
The main love interest in Netflix’s controversial comedy “Emily in Paris” said he partly understands why critics have panned the show. “I think they’re right in a way,” Lucas Bravo, who plays chef Gabriel in the show, said during an interview with Cosmopolitan.
The 32-year-old French actor continued: “At some point, if you want to tell a story about Paris, you have to choose an angle. You have to choose a vision. French critics, they didn’t understand the fact that it’s just one vision. They’re like, ‘Oh, this is not what Paris is.’ Of course. Paris is many things.”

TEXTO:
It is said that your body can’t use the protein from
beans unless you eat them with rice. Proteins — which
our bodies need to make everything from new muscle
to hormones — are made up of different combinations
[5] of 20 amino acids. Thing is, our bodies can make only
11 of these amino acids; we must get the other nine
from food. Animal-based protein-rich foods like eggs
and meat provide all nine of these “essential” amino
acids, but nearly all plant foods are low in at least one.
[10] Experts used to say that to get what your body
needs to make proteins, you needed to pair plant-based
foods with complementary sets of amino acids — like
rice and beans. Now they know that you don’t have to
eat those foods at the same meal. “If you get a variety
[15] of foods throughout the day, they all go into the ‘basket’
of amino acids that are available for the body to use,”
says Winston J. Craig, Ph.D., R.D., nutrition department
chair at Andrews University in Berrien Springs,
Michigan.
