Today, rumors started flying that Victoria’s Secret was cutting ties with one of its most well-known Angels, Miranda Kerr.
Except that it’s not 100% true. (Maybe more like 10% true.)
The Victoria’s Secret model on dealing with death threats and fearing the Taylor Swift Twitter wrath that goes along with dating a member of One Direction.
Today, WWD published its list of the 100 most consumer-recognized brands, as answered by American women–and it might surprise you who made it into the top ten.
Slipping into the number one spot:
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show finally airs tonight! Get prepped by reading what each Victoria’s Secret Angel in the “Calendar Girls” segment had to say about her outfit (even Karlie Kloss–though you won’t be seeing her controversial getup onscreen)–plus see exclusive sketches of their costumes.
If you’re in the mood to experience a little motion sickness while looking at some very pretty people plus Justin Bieber, we recommend watching the following promo for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, featuring the Angels lip syching to the genuinely awesome and totally enjoyable Beauty and the Beat. (What can I say? I’m a born-again Belieber.)
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is less than a week away, but yet another controversy threatens to cast a shadow over the glittery affair: Greenpeace just named the retailer among their “Detox Villains” for their lack of commitment to eco-friendly practices and potentially toxic products. This could pose a big problem for Miranda Kerr, one of the brand’s biggest Angels, who is so committed to green living she has her own organic skincare line.
So when we saw the model at last night’s Footwear News Achievement Awards, we asked for her take.

Yoko Ono will be designing for Opening Ceremony. It’s a menswear line inspired by–we kid you not–John Lennon’s “hot bod.” {Refinery29}
Sure, most of the press seemed to think that Rihanna’s “777″ tour was a disaster, but Riri says it was great! {US Weekly}
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show may be an American institution, but in this exclusive clip the lingerie giant wrangled their international Angels to tell viewers about the show (which airs December 4 on CBS!) in their mother tongues. Maybe Bieber should have considered bringing a translator?
Following a public outcry from Native Americans and non-Natives alike, Victoria’s Secret decided to pull Karlie Kloss’s overtly insensitive sexy Indian chief ensemble from the televised broadcast of its annual fashion show next month.
Here, we suggest some other November-themed getups that Kloss could have totally rocked–without offending anyone.
Before last night’s taping, we had to ask: Of the 10+ million viewers bound to be watching out for all those taught tushies when the Victoria’s Secret Fashion show airs on December 4th, who do the Angels hope ‘can see them now?’
We’re pretty sure most people weren’t looking at the models’ feet at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show last night–but there’s a reason to drag your eyes down past their perfect knees. Nicholas Kirkwood custom designed shoes for every single model in the show.

Watch and learn, Tyra.
