The wife of President Emmanuel Macron features in the second instalment of season four of the comedy, which airs on Netflix on Thursday.
The show is centred on Chicago woman Emily Cooper, played by British-American star Lily Collins, who moves to the French capital. It has won over fans but also drawn criticism for portraying a stereotypical image of Paris.
But Mrs Macron, 71, has lent it her ringing endorsement, by playing herself in a short scene in which she poses for a selfie with Emily in a restaurant.
Collins says the idea for the cameo, first reported this week by Elle magazine, was spawned when she and the show's creator Darren Star met Mrs Macron at the Élysée Palace in December 2022.
