Natalia Bryant Makes Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Debut

Natalia Bryant is set to make her debut in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on Sunday in Los Angeles. The 23-year-old daughter of the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant expressed her enthusiasm backstage, telling Page Six Style that she was "seriously so over the moon" to be part of the event.

"It feels amazing! I can’t wait," Bryant said. "I used to watch the show every year — since I was a little girl." To prepare for the occasion, she studied past Victoria's Secret runway shows extensively.

"I had the shows on repeat, really trying to get into that mindset. And it’s crazy, because now I’m in the room with some of the OGs. Angels are among us!" she shared. Bryant also noted that Candice Swanepoel has always been her favorite model, expressing a hope to meet her.

Bryant's approach to preparing for the show was relaxed. "I did a little bit of yoga this morning, did some stretching, played some pump-up music," she said, mentioning a playlist that included Dua Lipa, Beyoncé, and Tate McRae. While she kept details about her runway look under wraps, hinting that it was "very pink," she offered advice to other newcomers.

"Just go out there and have so much fun. Be you!" she advised.

The 2026 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will be available to stream live for free on YouTube and the brand's social media channels at 7:30 p.m. ET.
