Krugman appears as himself in a cameo in the 2010 comedy film Get Him to the Greek.
Singer-songwriter Loudon Wainwright III wrote a song, 'The Krugman Blues', in humorous praise of Krugman, writing "...all the other experts all seem way off base, and I guess that I identify with that pissed-off look on Paul's face". The song was released on the album 10 Songs for the New Depression.
