Black Eyed Peyes singer will.i.am will fill in for his friend Kanye West at the 2007 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, taping tonight.

Kanye bowed out of his scheduled performance on Wednesday in the wake of his mother DONDA’s tragic death on Saturday. As a tribute to Kanye’s mom, will.i.am will perform his hit song “I Got It From My Mama” and is expected to say a few words about West.

The last minute substitution was worked out just before midnight last night sources inside CBS confirm. will.i.am is expected to rehearse in the few hours remaining before the concert is taped. The special will air on CBS, December 4th.
