Apparently even the svelte supermodels legions of women envy face some insecurity when walking in the biggest and nakedest of all fashion shows - the Victoria's Secret lingerie show.
"For other fashion shows you can be skinny, but for Victoria's Secret, you need definition," says Doutzen Kroes who walks for high fashion heavy weights like Christian Dior and Valentino.
"I love feeling so sexy and I love to be on this runway, but you're nervous because it's lingerie and it's on TV," Kroes said. "There are so many people seeing you live, it's not like a picture when there is Photoshop after."
It's rumored that Kroes will be wearing a frothy pink ballerina ensemble and a Greek goddess get-up in tonight's televised event on CBS at 10 p.m.
She went on a strict sugar- and carb-free meal plan and did extra jump rope exercises to fit into her frilly finery. For other fashion shows, she's generally able to eat "what she wants" because she exercises often.
"I'm a little shy and unassuming, which might be hard to believe with my job, so I don't have to quite become another person out there but I have to think about letting it all go. My last outfit was a black velvet one-piece with pink feathers on the back. I had to show the camera my tail feathers so I did give a little spin," Marisa Miller says. "Some outfits are complicated, and you have to be aware of how they shift or if they are restricting. When you're in your underwear, a lot can happen."
Miranda Kerr plays down the sexiness of the VS experience.
"My mom didn't mind seeing me up there in my underwear ," Kerr says. "I am 25 and it's all very lovely and like a costume. It's beautiful and romantic ... it's not like standing up there in my everyday underwear. It's a theatrical show and everyone is there to have a good time."
You can look for Kerr in a cool-shade blue lace low-cut bra and high-cut brief, sexy sandals with thigh-high ribbons and the coveted wings. But that wink isn't for the fellas, it's for Mom and Dad.
