Miss USA Falls Onstage During 2007 Miss Universe Pageant

Miss USA Rachel Smith's strut down the catwalk to model her evening gown during the Miss Universe pageant didn't quite go as planned.



Smith slipped and fell on her rear during Monday night's Miss Universe pageant in Mexico City.

She was also seemingly booed during her interview by Hispanic audience members who were chanting "Mexico! Mexico!" until she spoke in Spanish, the Associated Press reports.

Smith's responsed with "Buenas noches Mexico. Muchas gracias!" , which earned her applause.

She finished fourth runner-up. Riyo Mori was named Miss Universe 2007.

Pageant co-owner Donald Trump said of Smith's ordeal, "Rachel has been a great Miss USA, and she's really a nice person, and I don't think they were booing Rachel, perhaps they were booing some policies of the United States, to be honest with you."
