Ed Razek, executive producer of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and chief creative officer, later praised the model's behavior and shared his encouragement on his Instagram account: "On a night of great beauty and so many extraordinary moments, this may well be the most important. Ming fell. Gizele stopped, helped her up, and waited for Ming to reach the end of her runway pose. Ming, there is no shame in falling. But there is great triumph in rising and finishing the journey. Gizele, your simple eloquent gesture is being seen around the world. It is said you are never taller than when you bend down to help someone in need. I am so incredibly proud of you both. You represent the best of what we all strive to be."
Xi later responded: "As many of you may already know, I fell during my 5th year at the Victoria's Secret show yesterday. It was no doubt one of the hardest moments I have ever had to go through in my career, especially since the show was taking place in my hometown, in front of my mother and before my people's eyes."
She added, "However, the support I received from everyone yesterday was incredible and I am truly grateful to everyone who was there for me...Thank you to everyone who sent and left me supportive messages. I will pick myself up from where I fell, and I will keep going in order to repay all the support you have given me!!"

The Chinese model's tumble would probably be edited out for the final broadcast as the Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows are usually filmed twice.
