Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2009

Tuesday night featured the annual CBS 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show hosted by Heidi Klum (who recently adopted her husband Seal's last name and is now Heidi Samuel). In addition to her usual show hosting duties, Klum decided to walk the runway at the last minute, something unexpected since she gave birth to her fourth child just six weeks earlier:

"I felt great the night of the fashion show and decided last minute to walk. I'm proud of being the curvy model on the Victoria’s Secret stage."

This year's Victoria's Secret runway show broadcast was filmed at the Lexington Avenue Armory in New York, featuring a large V shaped glitter filled stage. The show was divided into five segments featuring a different theme: Star Trooper, All Aboard, Pink Planet, Enchanted Forest and Romantic Journey. As Victoria's Secret show stylist Charlotte Stockdale puts it:

"We came up with the idea of this girl who lands from outer space in Paris. She gets on a train that comes to a halt in Pinkland, where pink girls get on and off. Then they go into this fairy-tale forest and little lady bugs and butterflies land on them and vines grow up on their clothes. Then, there's Tick-Tock Time; the wings in this section are based on clocks -- there's one modeled after a pocket watch with metallic feathers. And she ends up in this regal realm of princess-ness, where the wings have Swarovski jewels and peacock feathers."

Live music performances featured two songs from the the Black Eyed Peas and the New York Global Singers performing with the Leona Lewis song "Happy".

Runway music for the show was produced by Jeremy Healy, who has held the title of Music Designer of the annual televised Victoria's Secret Fashion Show since 2001. For this year's Victoria's Secret TV show, Healy featured two Kings of Leon songs in runway mashups:

"Sex on Fire" by Kings of Leon remixed with "Message in a Bottle" by The Police

"Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon remixed with "It's the Same Old Song" by The Four Tops
