Stick to Your Day Jobs, Girls: Victoria’s Secret Angels “Deck the Halls”

  • By Men's Folio

Just five more days to the birth of Christ! Hark, the herald angels sing: watch the ladies from Victoria’s Secret mangle a sacred secular holiday ditty. Giving mere mortals hope that God is fair, a posse of the world’s loveliest-looking women let slip a terrible secret: they cannot sing.

Here’s Miranda Kerr, Candice Swanepoel, Doutzen Kroes, Alessandra Ambrosio, Lily Aldridge, Lindsay Ellingson and Erin Heatherton all dolled up in naughty silk-and-lace Santa costumes, doing their darndest to warble out the Christmas classic “Deck the Halls”.

They fail in spectacular fashion, naturally. Doutzen barely manages to croak out the tune’s easiest line, “deck the halls with boughs of holly”, while Miranda doesn’t even bother, excusing her flop by protesting that “they” sing “Santa Baby” back in her Aussie hometown. But it’s Doutzen (again) who sums it up best when she protests in jest that “it isn’t fair to have a model singing”—and by the grace of God, she speaketh the truth! Still, mute the volume and you get a very pretty montage of smiling, rosy-cheeked maidens: more than we can ask for, really. Happy holidays!
