Molly Ringwald is fluent in French. Like Jodie Foster, Ringwald studied French at Le Lycée Français de Los Angeles. In the mid-1990s, Ringwald moved to France and appeared in a few French-speaking movies. Ringwald was briefly married to a French writer, Valéry Lameignère, from 1999 to 2002.
@@jeannes10Jodie Foster is better. Timothée has a perfect accent, but sometimes he does grammar mistakes.Jodie Foster doesn't do that. But he is very very good
Here's a few more celebrities speaking French: Johnny Depp (he just proved his good level with Jeanne du Barry), Kirk Douglas, Sir Christopher Lee, Viggo Mortensen (the biggest polyglot of Hollywood) and Helena Bonham Carter.
@@HarFin123 what's not so epic about it also is that her french is basic/broken, I really don't get the zealousness of people wanting to add to the number of languages they speak at any level, I don't know about other ones but her french is riddled with mistakes and with very basic phrasing at that-
6:00 Timothée Chalamet switching from French to English sounds like a lot of conversations here in Montréal, Canada. It's Frenglish all around, we switch between both languages like they're simply one language sometimes. I'll never get tired of it, it's so unique. Like a union between two worlds.
knew about lisa Kudrow but matt leblanc? having a french last name doesn't mean you speak the language necessarily, ought to check it out then but going in with suspicions he doesn't)
It's ironic that Cameron from "10 Things" is infamously awful at French, when Joseph Gordon Levitt is fluent, even studying French poetry at university.
4:14 hang on, she said "chocolatine"???!!! In the south it's okay to say it, but in Paris or in the north of France, it's "pain au chocolat". Point Barre. I don't want a debate, it's been like this for ages and it will stay the same as we says it in our regions.
Two that I would add to this list: Ingrid Bergman and Christie Brinkley, both fluent in French. Bergman BTW was a true polyglot. She was fluent enough to not just converse in Swedish, English, German, Italian, and French but also to professionally act in all these languages.
You said "Chocolatine" ❤❤ ! You have a new subscriber ! Bravo for being on the bright side of the force ! Having said that, Jodi Foster speaks better French than many French people. I'm impressed by the charming French of Jane Fonda and Bradley Cooper. Timothé Chalamet is half French, and he supports Saint Etienne football club ! We can be proud of having such an ambassador of both American and French cultures on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
Jodie Foster doesn't speak French, she masters the language. Diane Kruger's French is much better than Bradley Cooper, even though he is pretty good. Chalamet is not as good as Jodie, but excellent. Audrey Hepburn, impressive level.
Totally agree that Jodie Foster's French was as good as I've ever heard. I'd have to give Diane Kruger and Audrey Hepburn very honourable mentions. I wasn't impressed with Bradley Cooper's French. I'd call it serviceable -ie, good, but nowhere near accentless.
Jane Fonda speaks even better French than Timothée Chalamet. Audrey Hepburn speaks like Chalamet, maybe better (Chalamet just nails the accent). Jodie Foster and Diane Krüger are the best on this list! The others are complete jokes, but an e for effort
Certain ones should be left out - sauf Jodie Foster, Timothée Chalamet & Diane Kruger - if you speak broken and/or basic French only (substitute any other language as people have a strong tendency to include any language as one of their spoken ones at that level these days) with a very strong accent, is that really speaking the language (I love Bradley Cooper, but saying he 'mastered' French would be a gross overestimation - well, while still being a lot better than most others on the list)?
Audrey Hepburn was not American, she was actually born in Brussels, Belgium. Her mother was Dutch and her father was British, so she grew up Belgium (where she learned French), then she studied in the UK and then moved to the Netherlands. Besides her native Dutch and English, she spoke French, German, Italian and Spanish 😉
Aren't you forgetting actors like John Malkovich, Jeremy Irons or Johnny Depp? Sportsmen like the cyclist Lance Armstrong or the tour de France winner Greg Lemond,
Two years of any language was required at my US high school and then if you wanted to continue thereafter it was an elective. And yes, I took Spanish but I stopped after two because I was just that bad at it. I wish there were subtitles so I could figure out what everyone was saying.
Years ago (I’m talking 50 years) French was the language taught in American public schools but it has been superseded by Spanish. I was a dweeb who took Latin 🥸
la liste n'est pas exhaustive, Anthony Perkins, Kirk Douglas, Peter Ustinov, Antony Quinn, etc, etc, etc, Ustinov et Perkins sans aucun accent, et avec un langage riche
Hught Grant a un accent anglais facilement reconnaissable, mais il parle français très bien. Jodie Foster pourrait sans aucun problème se faire passer pour française.Juste parfait.
Je retiens Jodie Foster, Audrey Hepburn, Jane Fonda et aussi Hugh Grant, Timothée Chalamet. Laccent c'est important mias le vocabulaire aussi. Et sinon il ya un politicien américain il me semble qui parle un francais parfait. 😊
JE SAVAIS QUE JODIE FOSTER ET AUDREY HEPBURN PARLAIENT UN FRANÇAIS IMPECABLE ET UN OU 2 AUTRES MAIS POUR CERTAINS...LES DEUX BRAS ONT FAILLI ME TOMBER, DU MOINS, J'EN SUIS RESTÉ "BOUCHE A (ET NON BÉE)" !!!
If they can speak french, i can speak english, italian and spanish (being this, of course , my first language) happy tuesday afternoon , Phoebe, take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.

Ringwald was briefly married to a French writer, Valéry Lameignère, from 1999 to 2002.
Audrey Hepburn is the definition of loveliness. Hearing her speaking French is almost ASMR. I love her!
Jodie Foster speaks French better than me. And I am from a French speaking country. 😂
Which country are you from?
Oui c'est vrai qu'elle parle très bien !
Jodie Foster should be number 1 on this list! I am French, I can testify that she’s the only one here being fluent and with zero accent 🎉
timothée chalamet aussi
Tout à fait d'accord. Son français est impeccable.
Everyone has an accent?
@@jeannes10Jodie Foster is better.
Timothée has a perfect accent, but sometimes he does grammar mistakes.Jodie Foster doesn't do that.
But he is very very good
@@philippedombinou8589 yeah you can tell that Timothée grew up with it but never took a french class.
I am french, and I can tell you it is impossible to tell Jodie Foster s french isnt her native language
+1
That’s impressive!
As a French speaker, I didn't know that Jane was fluent. From that clip, she seems to have a great sense of humor in French 😊
That's true!
Jodie Foster speaks french without any accent it's so impressive!
how do you know? Everyone has an accent?
@@paloma4444 without any english accent
@@brunoc7117 How can she not have an english accent? She was RAISED speaking english.
As a French person I can know 8f someone has an american accent and she does not at all, it's crazy
@@mademoiselleetpasmadamesvp1482 she does tho
Jodie Foster devrait être numéro 1. Sinon vidéo très intéressante. Bravo pour votre recherche et montage.
Et maintenant j'apprécie Jodie Foster encore plus!
Jodie Foster est la personne qui parle le mieux le Français sans accent !
Whatever they said, French sounds lovely to my ears.
Jodie Foster should have been #1 on this list by far, her French is absolutely flawless!
Here's a few more celebrities speaking French: Johnny Depp (he just proved his good level with Jeanne du Barry), Kirk Douglas, Sir Christopher Lee, Viggo Mortensen (the biggest polyglot of Hollywood) and Helena Bonham Carter.
Yul Brynner too…
Géraldine Chaplin too...
Shakria can speak Spanish, English, and French, so epic!
I think she speaks Portuguese as well. She also has a genius level IQ.
@@ashleydowney1222 😊😊
and arabic, more like the Lebanese one
It’s good but not epic. Lots of people do that.
@@HarFin123 what's not so epic about it also is that her french is basic/broken, I really don't get the zealousness of people wanting to add to the number of languages they speak at any level, I don't know about other ones but her french is riddled with mistakes and with very basic phrasing at that-

I'm french and Jane Fonda's accent is amazing
It's neat that two sixths of the Friends stars are actually fluent in French, with Matt definitely being better than Joey! 😂
It makes sense that Matt LeBlanc speaks French. His last name literally means the white.
I didn’t even know that!🇫🇷
@@ashleydowney1222 Yep, I sort of knew it because he has a French last name.
I mean Even though he is Le Blanc doesnt mean he speaks french, Charlie Sheen is Carlos Estévez and he doesnt speak spanish at all😂
knew about lisa Kudrow but matt leblanc? having a french last name doesn't mean you speak the language necessarily, ought to check it out then but going in with suspicions he doesn't)
this video makes me soooo proud to be French hahaha!!
Jodie Foster has absolutely no french accent. Flawless french.
Jodie Foster 1, Diane Kruger 2. Hugh Grant 3...
In France, it would be “Top 10 celebrities you didn’t know didn’t speak English”😅
😂😂😂
Awesome I'm so happy to find out that all these celebrities speak both English and French just like me 😊
I am surprised you made a video about french language. As french speaker, I love that 😊
Thank you… ❤
Msmojo, you said "chocolatine"... You chose your side in this terrible War...
It's ironic that Cameron from "10 Things" is infamously awful at French, when Joseph Gordon Levitt is fluent, even studying French poetry at university.
How so?
Que magnifique! Les célébrités parle français et ils parler très bien.
4:14 hang on, she said "chocolatine"???!!! In the south it's okay to say it, but in Paris or in the north of France, it's "pain au chocolat". Point Barre. I don't want a debate, it's been like this for ages and it will stay the same as we says it in our regions.
im french ...im known the best...jodie the first
Ashley Judd also speaks French as well as 5 other languages.
good job about doing Celebrites You Didn't Know Speak French from Top 10
I'm a french professor. I'm sorry to telle you this but Serena doesn't speak fluent french.
You left out Lisa Kudrow and, surprisingly, Matt LeBlanc - which made his “can’t speak French” on Friends all the funnier.
I saw on a podcast this week that the actor who plays Benedict in Bridgerton grew up in France and is fully bilingual.
You said "chocolatine"! I love you more than if you spoke perfectif french.
Two that I would add to this list: Ingrid Bergman and Christie Brinkley, both fluent in French. Bergman BTW was a true polyglot. She was fluent enough to not just converse in Swedish, English, German, Italian, and French but also to professionally act in all these languages.
You said "Chocolatine" ❤❤ ! You have a new subscriber ! Bravo for being on the bright side of the force !

Timothé Chalamet is half French, and he supports Saint Etienne football club ! We can be proud of having such an ambassador of both American and French cultures on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
Including actors kirk Douglas , Anthony Quinn who spoke french quite fluently.
with John Malkovich and Yul brynner ...
Thank you so much for this lovely pic ! A French 🙂
Johnny Depp speaks French well.
Jodie Foster doesn't speak French, she masters the language. Diane Kruger's French is much better than Bradley Cooper, even though he is pretty good. Chalamet is not as good as Jodie, but excellent. Audrey Hepburn, impressive level.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Yes , she speaks very well with a light charming english accent.
Robert Downey Jr. also knows at least quite a bit of French. He needed to learn it for some of his lines in the first two Sherlock Holmes movies.
He just learnt a few sentences in French. I saw his French scenes and his accent was awful. He almost sounded like a German.
Totally agree that Jodie Foster's French was as good as I've ever heard. I'd have to give Diane Kruger and Audrey Hepburn very honourable mentions. I wasn't impressed with Bradley Cooper's French. I'd call it serviceable -ie, good, but nowhere near accentless.
The best it’s Jody foster but I think if I really remember she lived in Paris and studied at la Sorbonne !!
Jane Fonda speaks even better French than Timothée Chalamet. Audrey Hepburn speaks like Chalamet, maybe better (Chalamet just nails the accent). Jodie Foster and Diane Krüger are the best on this list! The others are complete jokes, but an e for effort
“Mark Chalamet” 😂
With Joseph Gordon-Levitt knowing how to speak French, it would had been cool to use the language in 10 Things
How can you have left out Kristin Scott Thomas (se Sarah's Key)
Jodie foster French is amazing
Certain ones should be left out - sauf Jodie Foster, Timothée Chalamet & Diane Kruger - if you speak broken and/or basic French only (substitute any other language as people have a strong tendency to include any language as one of their spoken ones at that level these days) with a very strong accent, is that really speaking the language (I love Bradley Cooper, but saying he 'mastered' French would be a gross overestimation - well, while still being a lot better than most others on the list)?
People in this thread clearly don’t know how difficult it is to speak French fluently.
Joddie Foster and Audrey Hepburn have excellent accent for an American!
Audrey Hepburn was not American, she was actually born in Brussels, Belgium. Her mother was Dutch and her father was British, so she grew up Belgium (where she learned French), then she studied in the UK and then moved to the Netherlands. Besides her native Dutch and English, she spoke French, German, Italian and Spanish 😉
@@andreabarrios5249I didn't know. Thanks. I thought she was born in England.
Where's Matt LeBlanc? BTW, there are some other celebrities who have part french, such as JoJo, Tom Bergeron and the afro mentioned Matt LeBlanc.
I figured that Emma Watson speaks French because I know she was born in Paris.
MsMojo, can you make a list of Doofenshmrtz’s top 10 backstories or The 10 Soos moments from Gravity Falls
Aren't you forgetting actors like John Malkovich, Jeremy Irons or Johnny Depp? Sportsmen like the cyclist Lance Armstrong or the tour de France winner Greg Lemond,
super interesting
In Canada, it is a requirement to have french classes in school. In the USA, i think its Spanish
Two years of any language was required at my US high school and then if you wanted to continue thereafter it was an elective. And yes, I took Spanish but I stopped after two because I was just that bad at it. I wish there were subtitles so I could figure out what everyone was saying.
I only took French until grade 8. (Also Canadian)
@@ClassixMedianot at my school and it was private school
@@zazorro1 you were lucky.
Years ago (I’m talking 50 years) French was the language taught in American public schools but it has been superseded by Spanish. I was a dweeb who took Latin 🥸
Of course Audrey could speak French she was born in Brussels where people speak French
Bruce Dickinson should be on the list.
Jodie foster
Emma Watson makes sense because she came from France .
Why is Bradley Cooper higher than Jodie Foster? 😅🤷♂️
Audrey Hepburn is from Brussels, so not surprising that she speaks french
la liste n'est pas exhaustive, Anthony Perkins, Kirk Douglas, Peter Ustinov, Antony Quinn, etc, etc, etc, Ustinov et Perkins sans aucun accent, et avec un langage riche
Je suis choquée par l absence d accent de Jodie Foster et Hugh Grant. Ca leur donne meme une autre personnalité.
Hught Grant a un accent anglais facilement reconnaissable, mais il parle français très bien.
Jodie Foster pourrait sans aucun problème se faire passer pour française.Juste parfait.
hugh grant? il a un accent assez fort, vous ne l'entendez pas??
4:23
We do this to be helpful, not to be pedantic.
Merci 🎉
Je retiens Jodie Foster, Audrey Hepburn, Jane Fonda et aussi Hugh Grant, Timothée Chalamet. Laccent c'est important mias le vocabulaire aussi. Et sinon il ya un politicien américain il me semble qui parle un francais parfait. 😊
Serena actually speaks a broken French ....
At least she tries!
So French Canadian 😂😂😂😂
Ça m’a très surpris d’apprendre que Shakira parle français; elle le chante même !
Ouais c'est vite dit ...
Gwyneth Paltrow belongs to the american high society obviously !
Where's Gordon Ramsey?
Foster speaks most European languages.
Not as good as French
You forgot Gemma Arteton
Apparemment, Phoebe est canadienne 😁
Cooper is good but he doesnt come close to either Jodie Foster or Audrey Hepburn.
Emma Watson skills aren't perfect as it would be a 5th grade kid who just started studying French.
Faut pas exagérer quand même !
Here is one dumbbell that never learnt French while growing up in Quebec………..Kamala Harris!
Useless language!
Bradley Cooper!
Il n' y pas que les celebrites qui parlent le français les trilingues et les babyloniens de l'AI
the first jodie and the thirst
Shakira is reciting french lyrics....that's all... this is a bad bad cover of french artist Francis Cabrel, please spread the word!
JE SAVAIS QUE JODIE FOSTER ET AUDREY HEPBURN PARLAIENT UN FRANÇAIS IMPECABLE ET UN OU 2 AUTRES MAIS POUR CERTAINS...LES DEUX BRAS ONT FAILLI ME TOMBER, DU MOINS, J'EN SUIS RESTÉ "BOUCHE A (ET NON BÉE)" !!!
Bradley Cooper, Jodi Foster and Jane Fonda
I don't know if MsMojo speaks French but can she speak with less vocal fry?
where's lily rose depp?
Her mother is Vanessa Paradis, a famous French singer, so we would assume she speaks French, right? 😉
la plus grande nympho apres brigite bardot
Because its not necessary
Je parle francais . 😊 Et tu ?
Oui. Je parle Francais mais trés un peu.
Oh la la!
Je parle japonese . 😊 Nihongo !
If they can speak french, i can speak english, italian and spanish (being this, of course , my first language) happy tuesday afternoon , Phoebe, take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
Elle joue tres agressive
Bradley Cooper surprises me
Wow! Gwyneth can speak French and Spanish😍😍😍
The French she spoke in this video was not indicative of fluency
Serena had a special friend who is French and who was épousé avec quel qu'un de different.
Didn't know Bradley Cooper speak French
