Katy Perry, Akon to share runway with VS models

NEW YORK (AP) - Katy Perry, Akon and model Adriana Lima in a $2 million fantasy bra are among the highlights planned for this year’s Victoria's Secret fashion show.

Other models expected on the runway include Alessandra Ambrosio, Rosie-Huntington Whiteley, Chanel Iman and Candice Swanepoel. Missing from the lineup is Heidi Klum, who recently parted with the brand.

The lingerie show has become a holiday tradition of sorts, with many of the catwalkers outfitted in elaborate, fanciful wings _ and very little else _ parading in front of elaborate sets.

The fantasy bra has become a signature, too: This one created by jeweler Damiani features diamonds, sapphires and topaz.

The show will be taped Nov. 10 to be televised in an hour-long special on CBS on Nov. 30.
