Musical headliners
Another cornerstone of the annual event, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show always features an incredible showcase of live performers. In the past, iconic moments have come from Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Destiny’s Child and more. Last year, Missy Elliot, TWICE, Madison Beer and Karol G lit up the catwalk, and the brand definitely kept the hype going this year!
Megan Thee Stallion
For the first time, the “Hot Girl Coach” herself will strut her stuff on the catwalk as one of four live performers. A Grammy Award-winning rapper who always brings the energy, Megan was just as excited as fans when the announcement hit social media in September. Sharing the news on Instagram, the recording artist wrote, “HOTTIES MY DREAM HAS FINALLY COME TRUE!!!! I’M IN THEE VICTORIA’S SECRET FASHION SHOWWWW😭😭😍😍😍 TUNE IN OCTOBER 18 TO SEE ME GET MY WINGSSS🩷🩷🪽🪽.”
Tate McRae
McRae has been on a roll this year. First, she went viral after headlining Lollapalooza for the first time this summer, where her performance was quite literally *golden*. She also partnered with several major labels and appeared in campaigns for beloved brands like Adidas and Calvin Klein. And on Wednesday, Oct. 7, she caught fans’ attention again by revealing the title and release date of her forthcoming single, “Housewife,” which dropped on Thursday, Oct. 15.
KATSEYE
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show lineup wouldn’t be complete without a fantastic girl group taking center stage (or should we say center catwalk) and KATSEYE is the perfect choice! Formed in 2023 on the reality competition Dream Academy, the group is known for their incredible fashion and their high-energy hits, including “Gabriella,” “Touch,” “Gnarly” and more.
Megan Moroney
Finally, the annual event is adding a little country flair to its live lineup this year with Moroney, who released her sophomore album, Cloud 9, in February. Taking to the runway amid her Cloud 9 Tour, the singer is only the second country artist to ever perform at the show, following in the footsteps of Kelsea Ballerini in 2018.
