14 DAY TRIAL // The Prabal Gurung show, held over the weekend during the New York Fashion Week, was disrupted by a man in a thong, a raincoat and what definitely looked like a golden grown, getting up on the runway and playing catch with a bodyguard among the models.
Video of the incident is embedded below.
As you can see, the man simply got up on stage, unbuttoned his raincoat to show off his G-string and pranced around smiling proudly at the audience. At one point, he even got on one knee in front of a model, who looked totally unimpressed, as if he wasn’t even there.
The streaker gave the bodyguard some headache by refusing to have himself apprehended, but the NY Times says he was eventually escorted off the premises.
No one in the audience was amused by his antics, and especially not Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, in front of whom the streaker happened to get down on his knees.
No word yet on the purpose of all this or, for that matter, if there was one.
“The word after the show was that the streaker was Vitalii Sediuk, the same person who disrupted the Grammy Awards last year, when Adele was about to collect an award, and then grabbed Bradley Cooper in what the press called a ‘crotch embrace’ on the Screen Actors Guild red carpet last month,” the NY Times writes.
“He apparently got into the show with a Ukrainian press pass. Organizers said that no charges would be filed,” adds the report.
However, just a few days ago, Sediuk was in Berlin for the Film Festival, launching at Leonardo DiCaprio on the red carpet and giving him the same kind of “crotch hug” he gave to Cooper some weeks before.
Whether he had traveled from Berlin to New York just in time to crash the Prabal Gurung show is to be determined.
