She's been in the issue for several years now, and every year it's been someone else. And this year it's her. We're very excited about it."

Victoria’s Secret Model Jessica Hart: Taylor Swift Didn’t Fit In

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Models,

Taylor Swift "didn't fit in" on the Victoria's Secret catwalk, according to model Jessica Hart.

The 23-year-old singer performed at the annual fashion show in New York on Wednesday, but Australian lingerie model Jessica wasn't impressed by her on the runway. When asked if the leggy "I Knew You Were Trouble" star could pull it off as a Victoria's Secret model, Jessica replied bluntly, "No." Speaking to Women's Wear Daily at the after show party, she said, "I think, you know what, God bless her heart. I think she's great. But I don't know, to me, she didn't fit. I don't know if I should say that. I think what you find is that for a lot of us, we've been working for 14, 15 years, what it takes to make it here comes from experience and confidence and knowing how to be confident with yourself. I think it comes with age. It's definitely the benchmark of all jobs."

The 21-year-old model donned a naughty kit-inspired lingerie set as she walked down the catwalk in high-waisted shorts, a tucked in open-button shirt and a bright blue bra. Cara sported ankle-boot stilettos with knee-high socks rolled down, while she clutched a ball emblazoned with the Victoria's Secret initials.

Taylor Swift kicked off the show held in New York City with her hit "I Knew You Were Trouble," while wearing a Union Jack print mini-dress accompanied with a matching train and top hat, which were splattered with paint. Fall Out Boy, indie band A Great Big World and UK-based girl group Neon Jungle also took to the stage to perform a few of their own tracks during the British section of the show.

Lily Aldridge, Karlie Kloss, Jourdan Dunn, Lily Donaldson, Erin Heatherton and Candice Swanepoel also graced the catwalk in lingerie, which tied in with the themes of Snow Angels, Shipwrecked, Parisian Nights, Pink Network and Birds of Paradise.

Akong and Katy Perry will perform at this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

The “Teenage Dream” singer and the rapper will provide the musical entertainment at the annual event for the lingerie giants, which will feature a host of Victoria’s Secret Angels including Alessandra Ambrosio, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Candice Swanepoel, Chanel Iman, Erin Heatherton and Lily Aldridge.

Adriana Lima has been chosen to model this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fantasy Bra - decorated with a starburst design and featuring 2,000 diamonds - valued at $3 million.

Although a host of beauties will be there, it was revealed last month that Heidi Klum would no longer be working with the fashion brand. The supermodel had been with the company for 13 years but announced she was hanging up her angel wings and would not be strutting down the runway in the annual November show.

This year’s show will take place in New York on November 30th and the live broadcast will include red carpet interviews, model profiles and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the fashion show.
