Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show: What to Expect

Tonight, you can tune in to the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. On a recent trip to NYC, I saw the show during one of the two tapings. Jay-Z sat in the front row to watch the spectacle, which took place at the Armory, which the fashion set is used to for fashion showsMarc Jacobs always shows his collections there. Here are a few reasons to tune into this boobilicious catwalk:

- Heidi Klum (yes the one who just gave birth) makes a surprise cameo. She didn’t model skimpy lingerie, however. I mean, she had her FOURTH baby on October 9th. But she looked sexy in a garden-inspired corseted get-up.

- The Black Eyed Peas opened the show, performing their hit song “I Gotta Feeling,” as models walked in futuristic-themed looks. The BEP also performed “Meet Me Halfway” later in the show.

- Next was a travel-themed sequence with Kings of Leon‘s “Sex on Fire” playing. That was followed by a ’60s psychedelic style with a mix between the Four Tops‘ “Same Old Song” and Kings of Leon “Use Somebody.” One of the girls wore a fun train made from balloons…oh, and a sexy bra of course. (A look I’m considering for Christmas Eve dinner with the fam.)

Little Red Riding Hood look

- Heidi walked during a Victorian-era, Little Red Riding Hood-themed sequence. This was my favorite style — a mix of very sexy and conservative. (Side note: I think there’ll be a lot of this next spring — lingerie pieces combined with librarian-chic.)

Doutzen Kroes

- And finally, the dripping-with-diamonds, opulent sequence was also pretty amazing. Lots of feathers, diamonds, over-the-knee boots. De-LISH. (Oh and more sexy lingerie and bras.)

- All the models, led by Marissa Miller, Alessandra Ambrosio, Doutzen Kroes and Heidi Klum, walked out for the finale. (Prince and The Veronica’sI Feel So Untouched” played, followed by Coldplay as guests exited the Armory.)

And now I will go buy some lingerie. And I suspect I won’t be the only one.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show airs tonight at 10 p.m. on CBS.

    Ahhhhh!!! Jay-Z!?!?! Please tell me you got to brush shoulders with him??? SO cool.
    And the music line-up sounds amazing – “I Gotta Feelin” is hands-down one of the most exhilarating songs out there right now and I can’t imagine how FUN that would be to hear the BEP’s sing it live?! Thanks for this coverage, Meg!!
