Kanye West took the stage of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Wednesday night and the crowd loved it. Yet when Kanye’s surprise guest Jay-Z hit the runway to sing with the entertainer the audience went nuts. The unscheduled entertainer was just what the supermodel ordered as it brought up the tempo on the runway and got the crowd involved in the fashion show.
Singing from the Watch the Throne album the two entertainers traded lyrics and brought some rap music to the show. Performing in part as the supermodels with their wings were walking by, it was a unique aspect of the show most haven’t seen before.
This isn’t the first time Kanye West has been asked to be part of the show, he was several years ago but his mother died so he had to cancel. The performance he finally gave on the runway in New York City seemed to make up for the cancellation and it gave his fans delight to watch.

Candice Swanepoel led off the Victoria’s Secret 2011 fashion show, but model Miranda Kerr highlighted the evening, wearing a $2.5 million diamond encrusted bra.
Last year, Kerr was a no show, about to give birth to son Flynn. After delivering in January, she bounced back in three and a half months to her bikini body shape.
Despite her thin frame, she was more than ample up top to fill out the bra. She credits her fuller size to breast feeding.
The runway extravaganza, which will air Nov. 29 on CBS, was held at the Lexington Avenue Armory last night in New York City.

The show was divided into six themed sections, from “Ballet†to “Super Angels,†“Passion,†“Angels Aquatic,†“I Put a Spell on You†and “Club Pink.â€
The models showed off a variety of fanciful lingerie, which included Victoria’s Secret’s trademark angel’s wings as well as huge peacock-like displays.
The piece $2.5million Fantasy Treasure bra, encrusted with yellow diamonds and pearls was the highlight of the show.
Although a super bra is featured every year, this was Miranda’s first modeling it. In years past, model Heidi Klum did the honors. Klum has since retired from the show.
Kerr’s husband Orlando Bloom give his wife a standing ovation as she passed by.
“I’ve waxed, shaved, done laser. I’m prepped at this point,†Kerr said before the show.
