WHEN a crasher clad in a dark trench coat, banana-hammock and gold crown stormed the Prabal Gurung runway, attention was paid.

He did a little dance and was quickly whisked off the runway by security. The New York Post was told by in-house security he’ll be charged for trespassing.

Who is he? We’ve discovered his name is Vitalii Sediuk, a Ukrainian-born wannabe-actor whose infamous credits include grabbing Leonardo DiCaprio’s crotch at the Santa Barbara Film Festival last Thursday and crashing the stage at this year’s Grammys — he stole Adam Levine’s seat and congratulated Adele onstage as Jennifer Lopez handed the songbird her award.

His IMDB credits include him playing himself in a TV movie documentary, “Most Annoying People of 2011.”

Stay tuned for more updates. We’re sure his bare bum will be the butt of every joke this Fashion Week.
