A lot of changes involving Victoria’s Secret!

A few weeks ago, donbleek.com reported that Rihanna, The Weeknd and Selena Gomez were this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show musical guests. They were originally scheduled to perform at the lingerie giant’s mega fashion event next week (see it here).

The show will be filmed in New York City, and will air December 8 on CBS at 10 p.m. (see it here).

News just broke that Rihanna is out. Yes, she cancelled her performance! It is being reported that she cancelled her gig in order to work on her highly-anticipated new album, Anti, which is scheduled to hit shelves later this month or in December.

Riri has been replaced with Ellie Goulding.

A few minutes ago, we reported that print and runway model Kendall Jenner and “social” model Gigi Hadid will be walking the runway at the Victoria’s Secret show (see it here).

In related Riri news, the Grammy Award winning international popstar has inked a $25-million deal with South Korean electronics giant Samsung (see it here).
