Supermodel Gigi Hadid confronted an intruder on the catwalk at the Chanel show during Paris Fashion Week.

Comedian Marie S'Infiltre - real name Marie Benoliel - climbed onto the runway wearing a Chanel-style dog tooth-patterned outfit and a black hat.

After getting most of the way round the runway, Gigi Hadid stepped in and led her away.

It seems to have been a publicity stunt rather than protest.

A Chanel spokeswoman said: "We are not going to make a drama out of it."

Lots of people watching the show captured the moment on camera and shared it on social media.

You can see a load of models walking in a row, when the comedian jumps up and joins in.

Just as Marie was getting into it and posing with her hands on her hips, Gigi - who looked unimpressed - blocked her way.

It also looks like a tough gig for the security guards - who seem unsure of who they're meant to be looking for.
