Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Rocks New York City

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which will be broadcast December 1 on CBS, was taped yesterday in New York City and the lingerie giant pulled out all the stops.

An elaborate stage played host to dozens of the best bodies in the world, plus the Black Eyed Peas rocked two songs and Fergie proved she can flaunt a hard body with the best of 'em.

A live performance of "Boom Boom Pow" opened the show as model Alessandra Ambrosio showed off chiseled abs in head-to-toe neon pink latex, kicking off the Sci-Fi-themed group of lingerie, aptly titled 'Star Trooper'. Accessories included metal shoulder pads and even clear astronaut bubble helmets (think: Lady Gaga).

There were four other themes including: 'All Aboard,' which featured classy travel style (complete with dancing bellhops); 'Romantic Journey,' which featured glamorous lingerie (complete with a choir); 'Pink Planet,' which featured the young and colorful Pink collection (complete with a giant inflatable version of its polka dot dog mascot) and an ethereal 'Enchanted Forest' set led by Heidi Klum.

The supermodel surprised audiences by walking the runway -- it was previously reported that Klum would serve as host only -- in an artfully disheveled corset dress. And while it was more coverage than we're used to seeing her in, she revealed an amazing post-baby body.

Other fan favorites included VS vets Marissa Miller (in "the" Damiani Fantasy diamond-studded bra), Doutzen Kroes, Selita Ebanks and Miranda Kerr, along with the new bombshells of the brand who we reported on last week: Chanel Iman in her VS catwalk debut, Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Lindsay Ellingson (Emanuela de Paula didn't walk).

Front-row celebs included a tuxedo-clad Jay-Z, Zac Posen, Michelle Trachtenberg and Christian Siriano.

And, since we know you can't wait until December 1, get a sneak peek at the show in our below gallery.

Yeah, she wasn't lucky enough to have met the likes of you...so she is forced to live with someone who is creative, passionate, and deep. I wonder if she knows what she's missing. (please read lots and lots of sarcasm into this because I have the feeling that you will otherwise take what I wrote very literally).

I feel bad when I see articles with ony spam responses ... so, I'm going to respond. Project runway is a VERY addictive show! It's remarkable how one gets caught up in the competition and such.

Heidi Klum is a great hostess of the show and panelist when it comes to her comments on the styles and construction of the entries. But I must say my favorite of the show is Tim Gunn! He really adds something to the interaction of the contestents among one another. He rocks the whole program.

She has 2 tv shows and 4 kids, she should just focus on that and retire from modeling already. She looks good for her age, but doesn't compare to Doutzen, Miranda, Alessandra and the rest.

of all the worthless crap foisted on the american public, Victorias' secret anything is the worst. Peep shows do not raise the awareness of or educate people that need it, and things sexual are burying us in slime. Shame.

You pitiful people can't be happy for this absolutely gorgeous, stunning woman. Well, guess what? who gives a flyin f#$%, Heidi doesn't-LOL

She is having the time of her life, and it shows on her beautiful face all the time, she is much happier than she ever was at anytime when she was married to that fat, white slob of a husband before. Seal's chilseled body is layin the pipe to her and she is lovin it, good for you Miss Klum, you deserve happpiness.

Is the baby in Germany, USA or England???...Hopefully not Alaska. Those baby seals get clubbed and skinned all the time. Since it's half black Al and Jessie BS will be on TV for all the liberals enjoyment for months.

Don't hate because she "went black, and never came back". The father of her first child, a white man, abandoned her WHILE she was pregnant and guess who raised him as if he was his own son? Yes...Seal.

So, you'll be aight...she is a gorgeous woman and she is married to a gorgeous man....so there!

Here's a napkin, feel free to wipe that tiny bit of BS that is in the corner of your bottom lip.
