This year, the “Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show” returned to New York. Exciting, right? The gorgeous Victoria’s Secret Angels will model lingerie on the runway and make the oncoming winter easier to bear. The Angels include Miranda Kerr, Adriana Lima, Doutzen Kroes, Candice Swanepoel and Erin Heatherton. Since they won’t say much, we’ll need some kind of entertainment. Thank God, Justin Bieber was available to sing a forgettable number or two. Far sexier: Rihanna and Bruno Mars will also perform.
