Did Taylor Swift pull a Katy Perry on Jessica Hart?

Swift performed in lingerie at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show in London on Tuesday night, while Victoria’s Secret model Hart was nowhere to be seen.

Swift reportedly demanded Hart be removed from the big show following remarks the model made after 2013′s Victoria’s Secret show.

“It’s not been announced that Jessica is not walking, but it was a direct request from Taylor,” a source told The Daily News.

Swift got mad at Katy Perry earlier this year because she thought Perry tried to steal her backup dancers. Now she avoids all contact with her fellow pop star.

Hart said last year that Swift didn’t fit in well with the models. This year, Swift looked like she could have a second career as an Angel if she wanted.

Models sashayed down the catwalk wearing lingerie paired with sparkly, over-the-top costumes: think giant butterfly wings, full feather skirts, and gold knee-high stiletto boots. Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio donned the brand’s “fantasy bras” – encrusted with thousands of jewels and worth $2 million each – and Karlie Kloss wore gilded angel wings made of 18K gold.

Unlike most mainstream fashion shows, models walking for the lingerie label are told to have fun and flirt with the audience. They also got to wink, dance and laugh onstage with Swift, who appeared in a glamorous pink and black lace outfit. The singer later changed into a racy black lingerie set worn with a matching lace cape.

Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran were also featured as models strutted around them.

Asked whether he was nervous about performing so close to scantily-clad women, Sheeran joked: “That’s how I usually perform.”

“It’s one of the only times I’ve ever played when the attention isn’t on the musician, so it’s an odd thing.” he added.

Ahead of the show, model Lily Aldridge told reporters she was looking forward to a fun performance.

“You can be sexy and have fun and smile. You get to let your personality shine, so I love that,” she said.

Aldridge called the performance a “little slumber party that we get to have in London.”

A slumber party to which Jessica Hart was apparently not invited. Maybe she was hanging out with Katy Perry instead?

LONDON — Rhinestones, feathers, glitter galore— the Victoria’s Secret models have crossed the Atlantic for the lingerie label’s first catwalk show in London.

The 47 models are showing off the brand’s most extravagant creations, including jewel-encrusted bras worth $2 million each and “angel wings” — the models are known as “angels” — made of gold.

Security was extremely tight for reporters allowed a glimpse backstage, where models including Karlie Kloss and Alessandra Ambrosio, donned hair rollers, pink satin robes and flip flops while getting their makeup ready and pouting for cameras.

Model Lily Aldridge called it a “little slumber party that we get to have in London” — albeit an expensive and slickly managed one. The show, typically a glitzy and over the top affair, will feature a performance by pop singer Taylor Swift and a guest list of more than 3,000 people.

And unlike most mainstream fashion shows, Aldridge and other models walking for the lingerie label are encouraged to dance, flirt and interact with the audience.

“There’s no better energy. You can be sexy and have fun and smile. You get to let your personality shine, so I love that,” Aldridge said.

She was looking forward to hitting the dance floor at the post-show party.

“Yeah, I’m going to dance tonight. I’m going to probably eat pizza. I’m very excited about it. I packed a Cadbury fruit nut bar,” she said, laughing.

Outside the shows, hundreds of fans stood in a light drizzle hoping for a glimpse of the models and the expected celebrities.
