Rocking the iconic angel wings, Gigi Hadid opened the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion show as it made its triumphant return on Tuesday night.

Airing live on Amazon’s Prime Video, the iconic runway show was held at the Victoria’s Secret flagship store in New York City after a six-year hiatus.

The 2024 show also saw the return of Victoria’s Secret vets Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel and Adriana Lima as well as next generation icons Taylor Hill and Barbara Palvin.

Cher served as the night’s headlining performer along with Blackpink alum Lisa and rising star Tyla — marking the show’s first-ever, all-woman musical lineup.

Legendary supermodel Tyra Banks closed out the show while Gigi’s younger sister Bella Hadid — who fans hailed as the ‘queen’ of the Victoria’s Secret runway — made a surprise cameo in head-to-toe red lingerie.

The show’s highly-anticipated revival comes three years after the lingerie brand’s controversial ‘woke’ body-positive rebrand in 2021.

Victoria’s Secret’s iconic Angels were replaced by ‘ambassadors’ like soccer star Megan Rapinoe and the company axed its longtime CEO in wake of falling sales and a bombshell expose that accused the company of misogyny, sexual harassment and bullying.

Lisa kicked off the show with an ultra sexy performance of her hit Rockstar, which saw her ride into the venue on a motorcycle as models got hyped up backstage.

It was styled with a chainmail shrug and micro shorts.

Lisa delivered elaborate choreography under pink stage lights on the massive catwalk.

Gigi opened the legendary show — which first aired in 1995 — wearing pastel pink wings and a silky pink costume.

Her short blonde hair was tucked behind her ears, allowing her to show off her sparkly hoop earrings.

The model, 29, strutted her stuff to a fun mash-up of Chappell Roan’s hits Femininomenon and Charli XCX’s viral single 360.

Later, Gigi bared it all in a see-through red lace bodysuit and a red ruffled boa that rested in the crook of her arms as she made her way down the catwalk.

The mother-of-one styled her racy outfit with pink heels that featured glittery butterfly wings on the ankles.

Coming out of a six-year retirement, Adriana Lima, 43, made her highly-anticipated runway return on Tuesday.

Victoria’s Secret announced the major news with an Instagram post, promising the 2024 show would ‘reflect who we are today, plus everything you know and love—the glamour, runway, wings, musical entertainment.’

The popular early aughts mall brand previously returned with a ‘reimagined’ Victoria’s Secret World Tour Prime show in 2023 that was not well received – people called the show boring.

Many former fans watching at home called for the return of former Victoria’s Secret Angels like Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum, Molly Sims, Tyra Banks, Adriana Lima and more.

That was far from the biggest issue with the brand, as Victoria’s Secret has dealt with multiple controversies over the last few years.

In 2020, a bombshell report in The New York Times claimed that Victoria’s Secret owner Les Wexner mocked the retail industry’s efforts to champion women of different body types.

The Times interviewed more than 30 executives, employees, contractors and models, and looked at court filings to find a toxic culture of sexual harassment.

Employees said Wexner mocked the retail industry’s efforts to embrace a variety of body types by allegedly saying, ‘Nobody goes to a plastic surgeon and says, ‘Make me fat.”

Wexner was said to also berate employees about their weight, including fat shaming an employee for getting seconds at a buffet.

After the backlash, the lingerie company rebranded in an effort to appeal to Gen Z and named new brand ambassadors, including soccer player Megan Rapinoe and transgender model Valentina Sampaio.

Ahead of the 2024 show, fans flocked to to beg Victoria’s Secret to return to their glamorous roots.

Despite the brand’s assurances that this year’s show would ‘reflect who we are today, plus everything you know and love,’ one woman started a social media firestorm when she tweeted, ‘Victoria’s Secret fashion show is tomorrow and I hope they bring back THIS fashion show with the femininity, glamour, glitter and girl power! I don’t want to see none of that political woke stuff.’

Many people agreed, and the tweet on X (formerly Twitter) received more than 4,200 retweets.

‘And girl power! None of that woke stuff,’ someone else wrote.

However, some called her out in the comments, with one writing, ‘Y’all just want the skinny back LMAO,’ and others saying, ‘God I wish I could be this willfully ignorant LIKE.’
