Tyra Banks ... turning off her talk show gig
Tyra Banks took a cue from Oprah Winfrey and made a big announcement.
The model-turned-empire-builder took to her Twitter page today to tell her 832,074 followers that the fifth season of “The Tyra Show” will be its last.
Banks will continue her nighttime hosting duties on the upcoming 14th “cycle” of “America’s Next Top Model” and work on her beauty pageant reality show, the “True Beauty.” She compared this decision to when she walked away from the fashion industry, according to WWD.com.
“Several years ago I made the decision to leave modeling — at the height of my modeling career,” Banks wrote in a letter posted on Tyra.com, “and although it was the most terrifying move, it was the BEST decision and led to me fulfilling some big lifelong dreams. Now, I’m a bit nervous and excited for my next HUGE steps which will allow me to reach MORE women and young girls to help us all feel as fierce as we truly are!”
