The countdown is on for the 2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The catwalk of all catwalks will be broadcasted to our living rooms Nov. 28. The actual show is taking place in Shanghai, China, on Nov. 20 so there will be tons of social media buzz before the air date. You'll want to sharpen your Instagram game to ensure you don't miss a minute of the action. The VS models have truly become huge celebrities living insanely cool lives, so they're worth a follow. Who is walking in the 2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show? The star-studded runway is one you won't want to miss.

I think one of the biggest surprises to fans was that Gigi Hadid dropped out of the show very last minute. The model posted on her personal Twitter account Nov. 16,

I’m so bummed I won’t be able to make it to China this year. Love my VS family, and will be with all my girls in spirit!! Can't wait to tune in with everyone to see the beautiful show I know it will be, and already can't wait for next year! :) x

This news coming straight from Hadid herself made fans upset. She did say, "can't wait for next year," which insinuates she still has a good relationship with VS and will be in the show next year.

Although one Hadid sister will be absent, there's still a plethora of other famous faces you'll see in the show. Below are the familiar faces and newcomers that you can expect to see in the 2017 VS Fashion Show.

The Angels

Of course, it couldn't be the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show without the angels — they are the backbone of the VS brand. According to Victoria's Secret, the 14 angels are: Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Behati Prinsloo (may not be walking due to pregnancy), Lily Aldridge, Elsa Hosk, Josephine Skriver, Sara Sampaio, Martha Hunt, Stella Maxwell, Lais Ribeiro, Jasmine Tookes, Romee Strijd, and Taylor Hill.

We know them, we love them, and many of them have been rumored to be dating Harry Styles. It truly wouldn't be the VS Fashion Show without these 14 gorgeous ladies.

Bella Hadid

Although her sister, Gigi, won't be joining the VS crew in Shanghai, we will still have Bella. After making her debut in the 2016 show, she's back for another year. The model divulged the big news via Instagram on Aug. 26. She said,
