Liza Koshy plays off her Oscars red carpet fall like a champ: 'I've got my ankles insured'

Liza Koshy played off an Oscars whoopsie like a champ.
The YouTube star-turned-actor and TV host, who had a role in the recently released Netflix film "Players," took a spill while on the red carpet for the 96th Academy Awards Sunday.
As she walked down the step-and-repeat in a red mermaid gown, Koshy, 27, suddenly fell backward, catching herself with her left hand.
"There was a manhole! Y'all saw that?" she joked after she received assistance getting back on her sky-high heels.
Known for her self-deprecating and goofy sense of humor, Koshy showed she's unflappable when responding to someone who asked if she was OK.
"I'm good! I've got my ankles insured, so that's fine. It's a write-off," she said as someone from her team helped fluff her mermaid dress so it fell in just the right way.
Though she might have risen to fame on platforms like YouTube and Vine, the Houstonian has become a regular as high-profile events in recent years. She has hosted several shows and live events, including the Met Gala.
It might be the first meme of the night, but we'll have to wait and see whether another big Oscars moment eclipses Koshy's red carpet tumble. One of the other headline-making moments during the Oscars red carpet was Vanessa Hudgens – who is co-hosting ABC's “Countdown to Oscars: On the Red Carpet Live!” – appearing to show off a baby bump.
Kirsten Dunst almost trips on Oscars red carpet
Koshy wasn't the only star at the Oscars who lost their balance.
Actress Kirsten Dunst nearly tripped as she walked the red carpet with husband Jesse Plemons, according to footage shared by Variety. Dressed in a crisp, white gown, Dunst reached for Plemons' hand when she bumped into a nearby statue of an Oscars trophy.
But Dunst quickly recovered, spinning around and placing her hands on Plemons' shoulders with a laugh.
In the 2024 Oscars race, "Oppenheimer" leads in with 13 nominations and could break the Oscar-night record of 11, currently held by "Ben-Hur," "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King."
Da'Vine Joy Randolph ("The Holdovers") is favored in the supporting actress race, while the most intriguing category is best actress, which features Lily Gladstone ("Killers of the Flower Moon") vs. Emma Stone ("Poor Things"). A Gladstone win would be the first competitive Oscar for an Indigenous actor in long history of the Academy Awards.
