Gigi Hadid doubled as a model and a security guard at the Chanel Spring/Summer 2020 show during Paris Fashion Week! A prankster, who has been identified as French Youtuber and comedian Marie Benolel, ran onto the runway during the October 1 show, but was stopped by Gigi before hitting the main stage.

Marie, 28, wore a black and white tweed skirt suit, a bowler hat, tights, and chunky black heels in an attempt to blend in with the Chanel pieces. The French prankster rushed onto the runway during the finale from the seating area and did an exaggerated strut in between the actual models of the show.

“I did it at the Etam show last week, but it wasn’t so great of a challenge so I wanted to up my game. So, of course, it meant one thing: Chanel,” Marie told The Love Magazine after she was booted from the venue.

Many eyes were watching the Chanel show not just because of the prankster, but because it is the new Creative Director Virgine Viard’s first solo ready-to-wear collection since Karl Lagerfeld’s death in February.
