Singer Belinda Peregrin Says Her Fall on Paris Runway Is ‘Iconic’

IMAGO / ABACAPRESS

Belinda Peregrin is speaking out after taking a tumble on the runway in Paris earlier this week.

On Monday, the Spanish-Mexican singer and actress took part in L'Oréal's ready-to-wear women's spring-summer 2025 collection during its 2024 Paris Fashion Week "Walk Your Worth" showcase, Le Défilé L'Oréal. For the event at the city's historic opera house, Palais Garnier, the 35-year-old stepped out sporting a fiery red mini dress that featured a mock turtleneck, a skater skirt and a gold belt fastened on the front. Though she looked fall-ready, the Baywatch alum was apparently not prepared for the weight of the chunky cherry-red platform thigh-high boots she had styled with her look.

As she was headed toward the crowd at the front of the catwalk, Peregrin tripped and fell, carefully catching herself with her hands and knees to not completely bottom out on the runway. The moment was caught on video, as almost everything is nowadays, and has since been dubbed her "Carrie Bradshaw moment" by fans, calling back to the episode in which Sarah Jessica Parker's Sex and the City character falls while walking in a fashion show (though Carrie doesn't recover nearly as well, with an onlooker even calling her "fashion roadkill").

Thankfully, Peregrin didn't appear to be injured and just like the pro she is, she got right back up with the help of another model and continued walking in the show. Peregrin isn't letting the viral video haunt her either, cracking jokes about it online. She even shared a mash-up montage of her fall and the one sustained by Parker's fictional character, quipping in a Sept. 23 Instagram post that she "never imagined" the "most iconic moment of my life" would go like this.
