Mean Girls star Reneé Rapp fell on Wednesday night as she waltzed out of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert with an open bottle of champagne in his hand.
The 23-year-old actress emerged from the New York studio in high spirits, but quickly landed back on the ground with a thud after tripping on a step.
Her bottle of Veuve Clicquot miraculously survived the fall and, rather impressively, she barely spilled a drop of the expensive bubbly.
Two gentlemen quickly helped her back up and she decided to hand over the bottle before getting into a waiting car.
Renee wore a burgundy zip-up leather jacket with a matching skirt and boots for her late-night TV appearance.

Renee’s fall occurred one night after she honored her Mean Girls character Regina George at the New York City premiere of the upcoming remake film of the same name.
She wore a black satin Christian Siriano Spring 2024 tuxedo dress for the star-studded event.
She subtly paid tribute to Regina’s – originally played by Rachel McAdams – pink satin Spring Fling dress by wearing a pink corset worn over the dress.
The statement-making corset featured a black lace up center and the look’s skirt had a high slit and train.
In the 2004 film written by Tina Fey, Regina donned a strapless dress and the black straps of her underwire hilariously became part of the ensemble.

Rapp completed her presentation with chunky silver hoop earrings, several rings and black heels.
Her shaggy, icy blonde hairstyle was worn loose as it passed her shoulders and therefore styled into a wispy look with bangs.
The Sex Lives of College Girls star’s eyes were rimmed with black liner and mascara and she wore a nude-pink color on her lips.
She showed off a short, glossy black manicure as she posed for photos on the red carpet.
It comes after Renee last week released the music video for the single Not My Fault from the film’s soundtrack, which she recorded with Megan Thee Stallion.
The song’s title is a reference to a line that Lindsay Lohan’s character Cady shouted at Lizzy Caplan’s Janis in the 2004 feature film.
The new film stars Angourie Rice as Cady, Rapp as Regina (reprising her Broadway role), Auli’i Cravalho as Janis, Jaquel Spivey as Damian, Anantika as Karen and Bebe Wood as Gretchen.
The synopsis reads: “A new student in high school faces the wrath of a popular girl and her friends.”

The first trailer for Mean Girls: The Musical was shared in November
The original 2004 cast starred Lacey Chabert, Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried
Mad Men veteran Jon Hamm also stars in the film as a high school coach, and he attended Monday’s premiere with new wife Anna Osceola.
The project was directed by Arturo Perez Jr. and Samantha Jayne, in a screenplay by Fey, who also stars in the film.
The first film generated a strong following after its debut, and a sequel to the film was made for television in 2011.
A stage musical based on the film was released in 2017 and ran on Broadway until 2020. Mean Girls, the reboot, premieres in theaters on January 12.
