NEW YORK -- Kanye West has pulled out of a performance at the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show because of the death of his mother.
The show, to air Dec. 4 on CBS, was taping at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles on Thursday. Will.i.am was filling in for West, said Hillary Siskind, the publicist for the Black Eyed Peas frontman.
The Spice Girls were scheduled to make their debut reunion on the show.
Donda West, 58, died Saturday night at Centinela Freeman Regional Medical Center in Marina del Rey. She had undergone cosmetic surgery Friday in Los Angeles and had gone home.
An autopsy was conducted, but an official cause of death won't be made for at least six weeks, pending further tests, the coroner's office has said.
