Cher is set to lead the “first-ever all-women” lineup of performers at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024.
The pop icon and staunch LGBTQ+ ally is set to perform at the lingerie brand’s fashion show, returning on 15 October after a six-year hiatus. The brand was previously subjected to backlash surrounding the “lack of inclusivity” and anti-trans comments about its infamous Victoria’s Secret Angels and models in previous shows.
Former executive Ed Razek, who once said the brand would never cast a trans woman in its fashion show, stepped down after Victoria’s Secret recruited its first transgender model in 2019.
Now, following a re-brand and (finally!) the inclusion of trans and plus-size models in its campaigns, the “Believe” singer is gearing up to perform at the show alongside a slew of stellar singers.
Who are the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024 performers?
Victoria’s Secret announced the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024 performers on 18 September via Instagram: “It’s a woman’s world, so it’s understood that you can’t have a fashion show without the mother of fashion herself—@Cher!”
Victoria’s Secret later announced that “Water” hitmaker Tyla and Blackpink singer, White Lotus season three actress and first-time VMA winner Lisa will also be performing at the event.
A spokesperson for Victoria’s Secret told USA TODAY that the upcoming fashion show “will deliver precisely what our customers have been asking for — the glamour, runway, fashion, fun, wings, entertainment — all through a powerful, modern lens reflecting who we are today”.
