Behind the Scenes at the 2012 Victoria Secret Fashion Show!!

It's the sexiest night on television and we've got a fabulous sneak peak behind the scenes!!!

The 2012 Victoria Secret Fashion Show will take place tomorrow at the 69th Regiment Armory in New York and even in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, it's sure to be the most magical one yet!

It's all glam, glitz and of course a little pre-show drama as the sexiest runway on earth prepares to unfold!  This year, the show will be commemorating the 10th anniversary of Swarovski's  partnership with VS. The result? A magnificent array of Swarovski crystals and beads sewn onto nude-tone netting. The idea is to “make it look like the crystals and beads are floating in the air,” explained Filippelli, one of the artisans.

Aside from the endless sea of Swarovski crystals, several other pieces had some serious ooh-la-la to them. Check out the exotic Snake Charmer creation that will be used in the show’s opener!(It has real snake eyes!!!)The show will include 65 costumes and 28 pairs of Angel Wings, and performances by Rihanna, Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars!!!
