Grammy Award-winning artist Rihanna will perform on "The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show," to be broadcast Dec. 4 at 10 p.m. on CBS. The hour-long special will also include performances by Grammy winner Bruno Mars and Grammy nominee Justin Bieber.

According to the network, Victoria’s Secret Angels Miranda Kerr, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Doutzen Kroes, Candice Swanepoel, Erin Heatherton, Lily Aldridge and Lindsay Ellingson are among the supermodels who will star in the popular lingerie runway show. The special will also include pink-carpet interviews, model profiles and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the world's most celebrated fashion show. The runway looks will include "over-the-top" lingerie embellished with SwarovskiElements, as well as iconic Angel wings.

A native of Barbados, Rihanna came to the United States at age 16 to pursue a recording career, and signed a contract with Def Jam Recordings after auditioning for rap icon/music mogul Sean "Jay-Z" Carter. She has since earned four Grammy Awards, including "Umbrella" (2007 - Best Rap/Sung Collaboration), "Run This Town" (2009 - Best Rap/Sung Collaboration), "Only Girl (in the World)" (2010 - Best Dance Recording) and "All of the Lights" (2011 - Best Rap/Sung Collaboration).

Rihanna has logged 146 million digital tracks sold worldwide, establishing her as the top-selling digital artist of all time. In addition, she has broken a record at Top 40 with the most #1's in the chart's 18-year history. Her new single "Diamonds" off of her next album, "Unapologetic," reached #1 in 26 countries within five days. Rihanna kicks off her "Diamonds" world tour in March 2013.
