Sofia Coppola's Daughters Romy, 18, and Cosima, 15, Make an Incredibly Rare Public Appearance With Their Mom at Paris Fashion Week
Director , a long-time friend of the house of Chanel, attended the brand's Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2025/2026 show on July 8 with two special guests: her daughters, Romy, 18, and Cosima Croquet Mars, 15. The trio's front-row appearance marked a rare public outing for the teens, whose parents have famously prioritized raising them outside of the Hollywood spotlight.
Coppola and her husband, Phoenix frontman Thomas Mars, have been intentional about providing a normal, private upbringing for their daughters, a stark contrast to the celebrity-focused worlds their mother often portrays on screen. The girls are seldom seen at industry events, making their presence at the exclusive Paris Fashion Week show a noteworthy occasion.
The rare glimpse into the family's life highlights a deliberate choice in an era of constant exposure. This commitment to privacy made waves in 2023 when elder daughter Romy, 18, posted a now-famous viral TikTok video. In the short clip, she humorously lamented being grounded after attempting to charter a helicopter with her father's credit card, all while casually outing herself as a "nepo baby." The video offered a brief window into a life her parents have worked diligently to shield, and it quickly made headlines.
Their appearance in Paris, however, is directly linked to their mother's storied career and her deep-rooted connection with Chanel. Coppola's journey with the iconic fashion house began long before she was an Oscar-winning director; as a teenager, she interned for the brand under the tutelage of the legendary Karl Lagerfeld. This formative experience blossomed into a lifelong friendship and professional collaboration.
Today, Coppola is a Chanel ambassador. She has lent her eye to the brand, creating short films and campaigns that capture the essence of Chanel's mystique. Her presence at their shows is not only that of a celebrity guest but also of a valued creative partner, making her daughters' attendance a natural extension of that relationship.
Coppola is best known for her acclaimed filmography, which is marked by a unique, atmospheric style. From her breakout debut The Virgin Suicides (1999) to the film that won her an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, Lost in Translation (2003), her work often explores themes of alienation, youth, and the quiet melancholy of modern life. Her impressive catalog includes visually rich films like Marie Antoinette (2006), the critically lauded The Beguiled (2017), for which she won Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival, and the recent, intimate biopic Priscilla (2023).
For a filmmaker who has masterfully explored the complexities of life lived in the public eye, it is clear that for her own family, privacy is the ultimate luxury.

To breathe new life into the building Rosewood Amsterdam worked with Studio Piet Boon to add sophisticated natural materials and bespoke furnishings. The rooms feature distinctly Dutch Delft blue touches and curated artifacts that make it feel like you're staying in a well-lived in home rather than an interchangeable space.

From Justin Timberlake's lackluster performance to Coldplay's 'kiss cam' scandal, concerts are making headlines this summer — but not for the music
Timberlake fans waited in the rain — and then accused the singer of giving a "soulless" performance. Each year, millions of people purchase tickets to see their favorite artists live in concert — and that number is only growing. And while Taylor Swift may not currently be performing, following the end of her nearly two-year Eras Tour, other stars, such as Beyoncé and Coldplay, are filling in the gap, attracting massive crowds and making headlines. But several recent concerts have made waves this summer for reasons unrelated to the music. In fact, some of the biggest pop culture moments of the season so far have taken place at concerts, from a major 'kiss cam' scandal to a pop star who doesn't appear to be singing much. Justin Timberlake gets called out for not singing Justin Timberlake has been known for his vocal range since his NSync days, which is why many fans were surprised to find that, during his recent world tour, he didn't seem to be singing all that much. Multiple videos posted on social media this month from different shows across the tour show the 'SexyBack' artist singing a few bars before holding out the mic for the audience to take the rest of a verse. During a July 17 performance at Transylvania's Electric Castle festival, fans who waited in the rain for JT later accused him of giving a middling performance. In an Instagram post, Timberlake thanked fans for attending the 'wild show' and 'rockin' with me in the rain,' but many fans expressed their disappointment in the comments. 'Not THAT wild of a show … and I'm a huge fan,' one wrote. 'The delay I got, I accepted it, but the part with you not singing even your most famous verses.. nope, I did not. Us in the crowd wanted to hear you sing the songs we played at home over and over again and danced on so many times, but unfortunately you did not deliver this time.' Another commenter wrote that they bought tickets to the festival just for Timberlake and 'waited patiently' for the show to start even after a 'big delay.' However, they wrote, 'something happened.' 'You did not click with the crowd, the show felt soulless and bored, ended abruptly and earlier,' the commenter continued. 'It was disrespectful towards the many thousands of people waiting for you. Too bad, could have been a nice evening.' Still, others defended Timberlake, arguing that it seemed clear — at least at the Electric Castle festival performance — that the Social Network actor was under the weather. Katy Perry almost falls out of the air midsong Katy Perry's Lifetimes Tour has been endlessly memed on social media, with fans both delighted and baffled by the futuristic-themed spectacle. Some have called it 'messy, while others have found the show emblematic of the campy charm Perry is known for. But Perry's performance of 'Roar' during her July 18 concert in San Francisco inspired genuine fear from the audience when the mechanical butterfly she was hanging on to dropped unexpectedly. Perry handled the situation like a pro (and fortunately she held tight to the butterfly!), but the reactions made clear that aerial stunts are not for the faint of heart — whether you're a performer or just below one in the audience. Coldplay sparks a 'kiss cam' scandal During Coldplay's July 16 show at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts, the band's frontman, Chris Martin, had some fun with the crowd while performing 'The Jumbotron Song.' When a couple showed up on the "kiss cam" and then ducked out of view immediately, Martin joked that they were either 'having an affair' or 'just very shy.' Turns out, Martin was correct. The internet did its thing and quickly discovered the identities of the people at the concert, the CEO of tech firm Astronomer, Andy Byron, and his chief people officer, Kristin Cabot. Both are married to other people. The awkward moment sparked endless memes as well as conversations about privacy in today's digital age. Beyoncé is left hanging after a concert malfunction Perry isn't the only pop star who was left dangling onstage due to a faulty prop. Beyoncé's July 28 concert in her hometown of Houston ended abruptly after the flying car prop she was seated in while singing '16 Carriages' malfunctioned, leaving her suspended and tilted in midair. After stopping the song, Beyoncé was eventually lowered and able to get out of the car safely. She even returned to finish performing the hit track from her Cowboy Carter album after a brief pause backstage. Solve the daily Crossword
