Lil Tay crashed a New York Fashion Week runway and was escorted away by security after unexpectedly joining the models during Creators Inc.’s presentation.
The 19-year-old recording artist and internet personality stepped onto the catwalk without a scheduled booking and walked for several moments as guests watched, according to video circulating online.
Creators Inc. CEO Andy Bachman made it clear the interruption was unplanned.
“I don’t condone spoiling months of preparation,” Bachman told TMZ. “But I’ll admit that girl mogged the entire room.” He added, “She should consider a catwalk, preferably with a booking next time.”

Lil Tay first became famous as a child for flashy, profanity-filled videos showing off luxury cars, money, and homes but later disappeared from social media during a custody battle involving her parents.
In 2023, her Instagram account sparked alarm after falsely announcing that Tay and her brother had died. Tay later said the account had been hacked.
A year later, she underwent open-heart surgery after being diagnosed with a serious heart tumor. Tay returned to headlines again in 2025 after joining OnlyFans shortly after turning 18 and claiming she earned more than $1 million within hours.
