KATSEYE make it 3 straight years of K-pop at Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

K-pop's third year running

KATSEYE took the stage at the 2026 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles, performing Pinky Up and Animal as official artists. The HYBE and Geffen Records multinational girl group follows BLACKPINK's Lisa—who opened the 2024 show as the first K-pop act to do so—and TWICE, who performed a congratulatory stage in 2025. Three consecutive years. Three different acts.

Yun Chae, Daniela, Lara, and Megan made surprise entrances from the audience during the performance. (The show's date is listed as December 18 by one outlet and December 19 by another; both agree on the Los Angeles venue.)

The chart run behind the booking

KATSEYE arrived with numbers to back the booking. Their third mini-album Wild, released in August, hit number one on the Billboard 200. Animal, a track from Wild, sat at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100 as of October 10 and had logged 10 consecutive weeks on that chart.

On the runway, Bae Yun-young walked as the first South Korean model in Victoria's Secret Fashion Show history.

The show's wider lineup

Tate McRae performed. So did Megan Thee Stallion and country singer Megan Moroney. The runway featured Gigi Hadid, Kylie Jenner, Alex Consani, Paloma Elsesser, and Abby Champion. Jenner wore the Fantasy Bra, valued at approximately $50 million (roughly 70 billion won), in her first appearance at the show.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show launched in 1995 and returned in 2024 after a six-year hiatus tied to COVID-19.
