New York, November 9, 2005 – Wednesday was a long day for Ricky Martin, starting very, very early, with Katie Couric dubbing him the “Latin Elvis” after his hip-swinging performance had the Today show crowd in a frenzy. That evening, Martin continued living la vida loca, performing onstage with scantily-clad supermodels at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show.

Seal also entertained at the VS show, and shared the stage with wife, Heidi Klum, shockingly back in shape after delivering her second child only two months earlier.

Mother nature apparently had a fit of model body-envy, opening up the skies to torrential rains that had Victoria's Secret guests Usher, Lenny Kravitz, Pharrell Williams, Nicky Hilton and Thalia squelching down the sopping red carpet.
