Victoria's Secret releases early Super Bowl ad

Adriana Lima is among the Angels who take the field in the Victoria's Secret Super Bowl commercial

Victoria's Secret Angel Adriana Lima, 34.

The Super Bowl still may be more than one week away, but Super Bowl advertising is such big business that Victoria’s Secret already has released a commercial it plans to run during the big game on 1 February.

The commercial features a full line-up of Victoria’s Secret models, known as Angels, taking the field in shoulder pads and helmets set to the most dramatic of soundtracks.

It turns out the Angels hit the gridiron not to celebrate the biggest night in American sports, but to encourage people to visit Victoria’s Secret on Valentine’s Day. The commercial will air during the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl, the lingerie and apparel company said.
