Video: Backstage at the Victoria’s Secret Show

  • 11/19/09 at 6:01 PM

The Victoria's Secret fashion show tapes today. It doesn't air on CBS until December 1, but we went backstage to check out what it takes to look like a Victoria's Secret Angel. Among tables full of hair extensions and tons of glitter, we spotted Doutzen Kroes, Erin Heatherton, Sessilee Lopez, Heidi Klum, Behati Prinsloo, Dorothea Barth Jorgensen, and new angels Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Chanel Iman getting ready. Makeup artist Tom Pecheux explains the look: "it's beauty, freshness, so light color, no hard lines." What does that mean? "A lot of shimmer, pink lipstick, black mascara, of course a bit of glow, a bit of tan, a bit of sexiness. I want a girl to say 'Wow, those bitches look fabulous.'" See more behind-the-scenes footage in the video. And look out for the puppy!
