After five lonooooog years, that hot mess that passed for "The Tyra Banks" show is coming to an end: "Banks will focus on the launch of Bankable Studios, a NY-based film production company. Banks aims to bring 'positive images of women to the big screen,' says an industry insider. With encouragement from filmmaker Tyler Perry and longtime mentor Oprah Winfrey, Banks is 'redefining beauty for women in film,' adds the source. 'With Oprah’s big announcement this year, I think that gave Tyra the confidence to get out there and follow her longtime dream of film producing.'"
Tyra issued this statement to People: “This will be the last season of The Tyra Show. I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past 5 years. My next huge steps will allow me to reach more women and young girls to help us all feel as fierce as we truly are."
She, like Oprah could have done the talk show and produced other projects. The reason why the show is coming to an end is because viewers are tired of her annoying antics on her show. She might be better off working behind-the-scenes and creating positive roles for young women since it's rare we get to see that on television and in film.
Now check out my favorite Tyra moment from her show:
