Heaven was missing quite a few angels as the gorgeous creatures of Victoria’s Secret, Miranda Kerr among them, were spotted on the runway during the line’s annual televised fashion show Tuesday.

And as it turns out, shocking shock, people still like watching really beautiful, scantily clad women walk long distances in high heels while accompanied by popular music -- and the special netted huge ratings for network CBS.

A few reasons to watch, in addition to the whole scantily clad thing: Miranda Kerr, above, was cheered on by baby daddy Orlando Bloom, Ministry boyfriend Joe Manganiello sat front-row with his ‘Magic Mike’ co-star Alex Pettyfer, and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine wrapped his inked-up arms around girlfriend Anne Vyalitsyna.

The Angels, with musical assistance from Levine, Jay-Z and Kanye West, clocked 10.3 million viewers, Show Tracker reported, up 15% over last year with a 35% gain in the all-important demographic of viewers 18-49, a.k.a. the ‘me like, me want, me buy’ crowd.

While the actual event taped weeks ago, Kerr and fellow Victoria model Alessandra Ambrosio hit up South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa for an official viewing party Tuesday night, cheering on their lingerie-clad peers.
