Recently, Belinda has been trending, not for her musical comeback, but for her appearance at Paris Fashion Week during a L’Oréal event. The attention, however, isn’t just because she attended—it’s due to a fall she took on the runway. In videos making the rounds on social media, you can see her shoes catch, which caused her to stumble awkwardly.
Anitta, who was just ahead of her on the runway, quickly noticed the fall and didn’t hesitate to help her up, even fixing one of Belinda’s long red socks, part of her look. The ‘Cactus’ singer took the incident with good humor, saying that when you fall, the only thing you can do is get back up. She’s also received a lot of support from fellow artists, including actress Andie MacDowell, who told her she should be very proud of herself.

However, Christian Nodal caused a stir on social media with a comment on his Instagram Stories that many think was aimed at her. While he didn’t mention her by name, the comment seemed to reference Belinda’s fall, his ex-fiancée.
“Este es un llamado para toda mi raza de Sonora. ¡Que se deje caer a Phoenix!” which translates to “This is a shout-out to all my people from Sonora. Come drop by Phoenix!” Nodal said, inviting fans to his upcoming concert.
It may not be as obvious in English, but in Spanish, the phrase ‘que se deje caer’ can hint at a fall. The real buzz came from the timing of the comment, which happened right after Belinda’s accident. However, it’s important to mention that this phrase is very common in Mexico as a casual way to invite someone somewhere, just like Nodal did in his video.

Belinda didn’t hesitate to laugh at herself. She posted a video of her fall on social media with a lighthearted caption: “The most iconic moment of my life, although I never imagined it would happen like this, hahaha. Anitta.”
The well-known actress and singer showed that instead of being upset, she chose to take it with humor—a reaction her fans loved. However, Nodal’s comment, coming so soon after the incident, stirred some controversy, especially given their rocky history.
