Gisele Bundchen fans thrilled with her surprise appearance in the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
The model, 46, surprised fans with a pre-taped video appearance that captured her lounging on a sofa in a pink lace dress paired with the brand’s signature pink-and-white striped bathrobe. The video aired at the show right before the live event on Sunday, October 18 starting inside Los Angeles’ Sony Pictures Studios.
“Are you ready for the show?” Bündchen playfully asked the camera after going over her toned body in the video, which Bundchen later shared via her Instagram Stories. The clip ended with the model flashing a wide smile as she threw her hands up over her head and laughed.
Bundchen, who started walking as an angel for the brand in 1999 and hung up her “wings” when her contract expired in 2007, had apparently filmed the clip before she injured herself, as reported by Page Six one day before the live event.
The outlet published pictures that showed Bündchen sporting a moon boot and walking on a parking lot in Florida on Friday, October 16. Despite the apparent injury, the model still maintained a glamorous silhouette with her signature caramel locks styled in waves with a black singlet and a blue denim cut.
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was filled with other famous faces, including Kylie Jenner who made her Fashion Festival debut for the brand in a $50 million bra with 4,410 natural diamonds and a $22 million 75.54-carat yellow diamond statement. The reality TV star was cheered on by the crowd with a boyfriend Timothée Chalamet and mom Kris Jenner.
