Amy Schumer decided on Tuesday night when she ran into Kanye West and Kim Kardashian at the TIME 100 gala, it was the perfect moment for a photo bomb.
"I saw them, and I asked my publicist, 'Can I dive in front of them and act like I fell?' And she said, 'I can't stop you,' " Schumer told People.
"I just dove right down," she explained.

"I talked to them. They were like, 'What?' Kim was worried for me, and I think Kanye was just, like, scared that I was doing something," the "Inside Amy Schumer" star said.
"They were really sweet. Kim was really funny," Schumer adds. "She goes, 'Oh my god, I was like, does this girl need help?' She was like, 'That was really funny.'"
