>> With Angel Heidi Klum just three weeks post-partum, fellow Angel Adriana Lima nearing the end of her pregnancy, and former Angel Karolina Kurkova just giving birth late last week, Victoria's Secret was bound to make some changes before their annual Fashion Show tapes on Nov. 19.

Heidi Klum is said to be hosting the event, which is back in New York City this year, and while non-Angel casting is always highly anticipated, five new faces now have a guarantee.  In addition to Klum, Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Marisa Miller, and Doutzen Kroes, the company has named Emanuela de Paula, Lindsay Ellingson, Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Chanel Iman as their newest Angels — Iman has said in the past being an Angel was one of her modeling goals.  First-time Angels are said to typically sign three-year contracts.

>> Victoria's Secret may not have the cachet of say, Balenciaga, but it can make a model a millionaire.  Although the lingerie company is currently taking heat for its rash-causing bras, its event of the year — the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show — is still on schedule for taping in Miami Saturday night.

The Angels — Heidi Klum, Alessandro Ambrosio, Selita Ebanks, Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr, Karolina Kurkova, Adriana Lima, Marisa Miller — will all be there, but more pressing: Who are the unnamed 30 models who have also been cast for the show? 

Fittings have been going on for the past week at least, and yet no names have leaked — the closest to a hint is this photo, above, of what appears to be Lara Stone in a Victoria's Secret outfit.  She's not your typical VS model, but the possibility of a multimillion dollar contract in the future is enough to make any model try something new.

>> We've seen Behati Prinsloo in goofy videos for Victoria's Secret PINK, but she's temporarily traded in her silly college girl persona to bring out the seductress for The Virgins's "Rich Girls" video, which dropped online last night.  Behati filmed the video in early May at Lit in the East Village, and if there's one thing Victoria's Secret has taught her, it's how to work that lingerie (which is, ironically, Agent Provocateur).
