Kim Kardashian and Amy Schumer Recreate Their Hilarious 2015 Red Carpet Moment a Decade Later — and Fans Can’t Stop Laughing
It’s been a full decade since Amy Schumer “fell” at Kim Kardashian’s feet on the red carpet — and somehow, the moment is still as funny now as it was in 2015. This week, Kim and Amy reunited to recreate their viral red carpet prank, proving that some pop culture moments are just too good not to revisit. The pair’s latest photos instantly exploded across social media, with fans calling it “the best full-circle moment of 2025.”
Back in 2015, the two women crossed paths at the Time 100 Gala in New York City, where Kim attended with then-husband Kanye West. As the celebrity couple posed for photographers, Schumer suddenly dropped to the ground right in front of them, pretending to trip. It was pure, unexpected comedy — the kind of unplanned stunt that immediately became internet legend. The photos of West looking unimpressed while Kim stood poised above the “fallen” comedian went viral overnight. It was the sort of cultural snapshot that only happens once in a blue moon: one part glamour, one part chaos, and a touch of perfectly timed humor.
Now, ten years later, both women have come a long way. Kim Kardashian, now an entrepreneur, reality star, and fashion powerhouse, showed she’s still game for a good laugh. Dressed in a sleek brown skirt and shimmering lavender top, Kim struck a familiar pose while Schumer, in a red gown, dramatically sprawled on the carpet at her feet — perfectly mirroring the 2015 photo. Fans who remembered the original couldn’t believe their eyes, with one commenting, “This is history repeating itself, but make it iconic.” Another joked, “Amy Schumer’s dedication to comedy deserves an award — and maybe a chiropractor.”
What makes this moment so memorable is how it bridges two very different personalities. Kim Kardashian has spent much of her career balancing elegance, ambition, and a carefully polished image. Amy Schumer, on the other hand, thrives on irreverence — finding humor in the absurd, even on red carpets. The fact that both women could revisit that scene together, willingly and playfully, says a lot about how pop culture has evolved. The 2015 prank might have once been read as spontaneous satire, but the 2025 version feels more like two women in control of their own narratives, laughing with each other — and the world — at how much has changed.
In interviews over the years, Schumer has often said that she pulled the original stunt to “lighten the mood” and bring something human into an event full of high-profile seriousness. “It was just a moment,” she once said, “but people loved that it felt real — like something you’d do to your friends.” That kind of energy still resonates. In a time when every image is curated and every public appearance calculated, this throwback moment felt refreshingly unscripted. Even the lighting, the red backdrop, and the crowd reactions echoed the 2015 gala, a deliberate wink at fans who remember every detail.
What’s even more touching is how both women seemed genuinely amused by the recreation. Instead of feeling like a publicity move, it played like an inside joke shared with the audience — a reminder that humor doesn’t expire, and confidence means not taking yourself too seriously. Social media users were quick to point out that Kim’s laughter this time around felt real, carefree, and earned. It wasn’t about the joke; it was about the memory — two public figures revisiting a pop culture flashpoint with warmth and good spirits.
As the images spread, they brought something rare: a wave of nostalgia that didn’t feel forced. The world has changed dramatically in ten years, but moments like these remind fans that joy, humor, and self-awareness never go out of style. For many, it wasn’t just about Kim and Amy — it was about revisiting an era of red carpets that felt spontaneous and fun, before social media turned every pose into a brand statement.
If the 2015 red carpet prank was about breaking formality, the 2025 recreation is about embracing it — celebrating how both women have grown, evolved, and still know how to laugh. It’s not every day two icons come together to remind the world that fame can be funny too.
