Model Joan Smalls was making her fifth appearance and said her upbringing prepared her for the job of lingerie model. "I'm from Puerto Rico, so we're use to walking with a little bit of clothes. So yeah, it feels like second nature," said Smalls.

Early in 2015 Polish model Monika Jagaciak officially earned her angel wings when she was named a Victoria's Secret angel. "It's the first time to even be in like a grown-up section. So I think that's pretty big for me. And I have two outfits, so I'm excited," she said.

Jagaciak previously appeared in the more youthful, teen-inspired part of the show. "I was in the Pink section before. So now I got an upgrade," added Jagaciak with a smile.

Entertainers Selena Gomez, The Weeknd and Ellie Goulding performed during the show, which will air on US television network CBS on 8 December.
