I think French people, especially younger ones, are much more open to the use of English than stereotypes suggest. My favorite example is the French name for the movie "The Hangover", which is "Very Bad Trip". Not "Very Bad Trip" translated into French, but the exact English.

Note that "bad trip" is the french word for a (drugs related) bad trip, like "weekend" is the french word for weekend. So that explain a bit the name of the movie.
