The above video — which features models playing football — is not the official ad, the [company says](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5-sx-Qgd%5FM), but rather a teaser to get us all pumped up about the ad. The video stars Adriana Lima along with four other Victoria’s Secret Angels playing a legit game of football. And they’re not even playing in lingerie and impractical silky robes. They’re playing in real, bona fide football attire. At the end, they remove their helmets and shake out their hair and walk seductively toward the camera, but still. Cool, so now that everyone is all pumped: the brand’s official TV commercial will air during the game’s fourth quarter, so be ready. **MORE:** [Get Ready to Cry With Dove’s Super Bowl Ad About Dads](http://time.com/3674706/super-bowl-ad-dads-dove/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3680689/victorias-secret-football-super-bowl-ad/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3680689/victorias-secret-football-super-bowl-ad/"},"headline":"Watch Victoria's Secret Angels Play Football (In Actual Football Attire)","datePublished":"2015-01-23T19:24:51.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:16:12.825Z","description":"In a promo for its upcoming Super Bowl ad, the lingerie company shows models wearing real clothing","url":"https://time.com/3680689/victorias-secret-football-super-bowl-ad/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd2994c53425be377/69877b950b72e3320b6dd500/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-1-27-00-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd2994c53425be377/69877b950b72e3320b6dd500/screen-shot-2015-01-23-at-1-27-00-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2015-01-23 at 1.27.00 PM","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3680689/victorias-secret-football-super-bowl-ad/","name":"Watch Victoria's Secret Angels Play Football (In Actual Football Attire)"}}]}] ```
