CBS has announced the oh-so-popular Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will return to the TV lineup for the Fall, this time broadcasting from the recently redone Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach.
Victoria's Secret Supermodel Heidi Klum, along with Adriana Lima, Marisa Miller, Miranda Kerr and a bevy of other Victoria's Secret Angels, will star in this holiday infused lingerie runway show, which will also include musical performances, red carpet interviews, model profiles and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the world's most celebrated fashion show.
The Fontainebleau should look just as pretty as the supermodels considering it is in the midst of a $1 billion facelift. The iconic resort which hit the Miami Beach scene in the 1950s will now include two new towers (Chateau and Versailles), 11 restaurants and lounges, a 40,000-sq.ft. bi-level spa, and an oceanfront "poolscape" featuring several pools.
The hotel will reopen sometime in September with room rates starting at $239 a night.

A couple weeks back we found ourselves at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel at Hollywood and Highland.
The rooms are run-of-the-mill Marriott rooms--bed and linens on the older side, and definitely not high end.
The common areas are clean and make a perfect conference setting and the hotel is attached to the Hollywood & Highland Center, which includes a multitude of shopping locations and a Lucky Strike.
However, the Hollywood & Highland center also includes the David Rockwell designed, 3,500 seat Kodak Theatre. Why is this important? Well you never know who might be sharing your hotel awaiting their turn on stage at the Kodak. Who exactly? Glad you asked. While we were at the Renaissance, on November 15, a bevy of Victoria's Secret models were hanging out in and around the hotel waiting to walk the Kodak runway for the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
The fashion show was filmed November 16 and will air December 5th on CBS at 10 PM EST.
We included a shot of an empty, shady, Renaissance Hollywood pool above. If you thought it was going our pool shot was going to be full of frolicking models you are asking for too much. However, if you want to see a photo from the Fashion Show, it will cost you a click.
