Tyla could be one of the supermodels walking the runway at the revived Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Tuesday. The South African star took the stage shortly after Lisa opened the show to soundtrack some top-tier supermodels walking the runway in the lingerie brand’s newest work.
Adorned by her own pair of sexy angel wings, Tyla performed her Tyla+ single “Push 2 Start” as she interacted with the models, including Alex Consani, as they walked down the runway. She then transitioned into her hit “Water” as she fanned herself and strutted down the catwalk, modeling her baby blue lingerie with golden accents.
Tyla made history at the Grammy Awards earlier this year as not only the first winner of the newly minted category Best African Music Performance but also became the youngest African artist to take home a Grammy. She won for her breakthrough hit “Water.” In March, Tyla dropped her self-titled debut album.

Earlier this month, the amapiano queen released Tyla+, the deluxe offering of her album, adding three new songs including “Shake Ah” featuring Tony Duardo, Optimist, and Ez Maestro.
When speaking to Rolling Stone in March, the singer explained that she named her first album after herself to introduce new listeners to her style. “I really wanted to give a statement because I think that shows confidence, and I’m just ready,” Tyla said. “I’ve been working on this for so long. And even though people think I just [arrived] a few weeks ago, I’ve literally been working for very long on this. Self-titled was the only way for my first album.”
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show aired annually from 1995 to 2018. The 2019 show was canceled due to poor ratings the previous year as well as public scrutiny aimed towards the show’s organizer Edward Razek, who had made comments about not wanting to cast transgender or plus size models in his show. Razek faced further criticism for fostering a culture of misogyny and harassment within the brand, eventually stepping down.
