Ciara was attacked by Vitalii Sediuk at Paris Fashion Week today (30.09.14), when he stripped down to a thong and hugged her while she was posing on the white carpet at Valentino's show.

The 'I'm Out' hitmaker, who recently split from her fiancé Future, became the latest victim of the Ukrainian prankster while posing on the white carpet ahead of Valentino's runway show.

The 25-year-old former journalist appeared behind the singer and stripped down to a black thong and sequined shirt, revealing the word 'Chanel' painted in white on his right thigh, before hugging her. The brunette beauty was visibly surprised by the encounter, but managed to maintain her composure.

Last week, Sediuk attacked Ciara's close friend Kim Kardashian West as she arrived at Balmain's show and almost caused her to fall to the ground, but her bodyguard managed to catch her and escort her safely into the building. He also allegedly tried to attack the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star as she enjoyed dinner with husband Kanye West at Hotel Costes over the weekend, but their security team spotted him and prevented him from getting anywhere near the couple.

Earlier this year, Sediuk - who has previously accosted Brad Pitt, Bradley Cooper, Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith at red carpet events - apologised to his victims and claimed he was planning to carve out a career as a model. He said: ''Basically, I'm changing my life. I would like to thank Hollywood for having me this two years and a half.

It was an experience that taught me a lot in life. Most importantly, I would like to say sorry for celebrities that had to deal with my stunts and thank them for being tolerant to me all this time.'' But he added: ''The motivation behind all my pranks was always positive even when some of them went wrong and were not understood by the public.''
