Cher stole the show when she performed at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
The Grammy winner, 78, took the stage as the headlining musical guest during the Tuesday, October 15, event in New York City. Cher rocked an all-black ensemble with sparkly cargo pants, a corseted top that tied in the front with a sheer long-sleeve. She paired the look with black boots as she performed a medley of her hit tracks including “Believe” and “Strong Enough.”
The brand’s Instagram account announced Cher’s performance in a September post.
“It’s a woman’s world, so it’s understood that you can’t have a fashion show without the mother of fashion herself — @Cher!” the caption read. “We’re beyond excited to announce she will officially be performing at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024 on October 15. But she won’t be alone … stay tuned, more announcements are coming to round out our first-ever, all-women lineup.”

After reworking the company as a whole, Victoria’s Secret confirmed in May that the fashion show would be held for the first time since 2018.
