Tyra Banks reflects on her favorite fashion show memory

The pink carpet has begun with hosts Olivia Culpo and Tefi Pessoa, and Pessoa got to sit down with Tyra Banks, an iconic Victoria's Secret angel.

Banks is returning to the fashion show for the first time in nearly 20 years, and shared her favorite memory from her many walks down the runway: her retirement.

"No, not because it was over!" Banks said. "It was the outfit. It was red, I had all the metals. I had the scepter. Oh my God, it was like Snoop (Dogg), I was just feeling it."

Banks walked the runway for the last time in 2005 to Snoop Dogg's hit track, "Drop It Like It's Hot."

While walking the carpet, Cher said she was "most excited" for the all-female music lineup — which, of course, includes her.

"I'm proud that women are finally being able in many ways — not in all ways but in some ways — to just find their own destiny," she said.

The singer added that she didn't recall watching the VSFS previously but that so far, it's been a "great" and "cool" experience.

She jokingly warned viewers not to get too excited for her outfit and performance.

"Don't expect that much, I'm just going to go out there and do my best," she laughed.

Edwards and Cher initially met during Paris Fashion Week in 2022 for "about 15 minutes," the singer previously told People, adding a mutual friend gave him her number.

In 2022, the pair sparked dating rumors when they were spotted getting cozy in Los Angeles. Cher later confirmed the rumors when she responded back to a fan on X, who asked her if she had a new boyfriend.

“YESSSSS,” Cher replied on Nov. 4, 2022.

"I was just excited and grateful to be here. I mean, I'm one of a few trans people here today, which I'm really grateful for, and I'm happy that I get to be here and represent my community," Consani continued. "Also, just being able to feel confident, that's something that Victoria's Secret really embodies and I'm really grateful that I get to be doing today."

One of her favorite memories of the show was in 2016, when the show was held in Paris, she said.

"I just remember when all of the girls came out in their underwear under the Eiffel Tower, sparkling," she said. "I mean, that made me love Paris. And I was like, 'Oh, I need me some Victoria's Secret.'"

She added that she's most excited to walk in the show: "It's my first-ever Victoria's Secret show, and I think it's gonna be the best one yet."

Why hasn't there been a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show since 2018?

The last Victoria's Secret Fashion show was in 2018. The event recieved the worst ratings in the show's history, NBC News reported, falling from more than 10 million viewers in 2010 to just over 3 million in 2018.

Victoria’s Secret announced it would be canceling the show in November 2019 so it could “evolve the messaging of (the company),” Stuart Burgdoerfer, chief financial officer of Victoria’s Secret parent company L Brands, said on an earnings call at the time, according to Fortune.

The cancelation came as the brand was also facing several controversies, leading several executives of Victoria's Secret's parent company, L Brands, to step down. Read more about the backlash the brand faced here.

Last year, Victoria's Secret launched a partially revamped version of a fashion show titled “Victoria’s Secret World Tour,” which featured models like Gigi Hadid and Candice Swanepoel, plus performers like Doja Cat and Sabrina Carpenter.

Who will walk in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?

Tyra Banks and Gigi Hadid were the first models confirmed to be returning to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

In an Instagram post from Victoria’s Secret in August, Hadid walked through New York’s Plaza Hotel to pick up a golden invite from Banks.

“Sorry, couldn’t write a caption, we were too busy picking up our jaws off the floor at @tyrabanks and @gigihadid delivering VSFS invites,” the brand wrote in the caption. “You understand.”

In addition to Banks and Hadid, Candice Swanepoel and Imaan Hammam were confirmed to be returning to the runway on Sept. 27, according to Victoria's Secret.

In the days leading up to Tuesday's event, Adriana Lima, Barbara Palvin, Ashley Graham and Jasmine Tookes were among the models also confirmed to be walking down the catwalk.

"I don't know where the f--- you live," the driver replies, leading Lima to ask him to take her to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
