Getty The annual "Jason Derulo falling down the stairs at the Met Gala" tradition is back. Every year during the Met Gala (and sometimes at other major events at this point), a popular meme resurfaces on social media: Jason Derulo falling down the stairs. The ongoing joke has circulated for over a full decade since 2015. Each year, there are still people who believe that the news is real, and that the 36-year-old "Savage Love" singer truly took a tumble at the star-studded gala. He did not. As the 2026 Met Gala red carpet begins, users are already cracking the decade-old joke once again.
