In September 2006, Filles TV unveiled a new logo meant to be less girly. It unveiled another logo the following year which kept its epsilon, with Filles TV assuming a 15-24 target range.
On 13 October 2009, Filles TV became June, refocusing as a young adult channel with the ambition to become the channel of reference for women aged 20 to 30, turning to be a feminine counterpart to MCM instead of Canal J as it initially was created. The rebranding was launched with a campaign starring Jonathan Cohen wanting to integrate for the channel "which makes you want to be a girl", according to its motto. Hence, June started broadcasting shows like Skins and some animated series like Sabrina and Nana
From Summer 2014, the exploitation of the June website (as well as MCM and Virgin Radio) was given to the infotainment digital media Melty. June was also renamed June TV in its final years.
June ended its programming on 1 September 2016 past midnight, to get replaced by Elle Girl launching on 15 September, as a full Canal exclusive in France (not getting carried by Numericable), and expanded its target range into women from 18 to 50. The channel would share the prestigious brand of the magazine Elle and made productions and promotion in association with the latter which was also owned by Lagardère.
On 16 July 2019, Elle Girl TV shut down for good ahead of the acquisition of Lagardère Active by Groupe M6, and Canal+ not renewing its exclusive contract.
