PARIS — It's Kim Kardashian causing mayhem at Paris Fashion Week again.

This time, the reality star was the innocent victim of a kerfuffle outside the Balmain show Thursday, in which she was nearly knocked to the floor. The video of the event, claimed by celebrity prankster Vitalii Sediuk, went viral.

But Kardashian didn't let this ruffle her fashion-conscious feathers. She was seen not long after, with a pristinely styled side-parting, causing a run-of-the-mill media scrum at the Lanvin show with Kanye West on her arm.

All in a day's work.

Kardashian was jostled on exiting her car for the Balmain show near the Paris opera house and was nearly knocked to the floor.

In a video posted on website TMZ.com, Kardashian appears to stumble briefly after a person lunges toward her feet, when bodyguards push Kardashian out of the way. They neutralize someone who remains off camera.

Vitalii Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, told The Associated Press in an email that he is the person in the video, and that he'd only been trying to hug the star.

Sediuk has gained a reputation for outlandish pranks on red.

In May, he was arrested and spent two days in jail after jostling with Brad Pitt at a film premiere in Los Angeles. He also crawled underneath America Ferrera's dress at a film premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.

Kardashian, a media-scrum pro, was soon seen causing more mayhem at the Lanvin show, in Paris' ornate Museum of Fine Arts.
