Date:

Tyra Banks to return to TV with a new Talk show on ABC.

Tyra Banks was once considered the next Oprah Winfrey. With her interviews and emotional confessions, Tyra Banks had the future of day-time television in the palms of her hands. But, that dream later floundered.

Now, Tyra Banks is making her way back to Daytime television with a new talk show. This time Tyra Banks will be joined by a panel of lifestyle experts. According to TheWrap, Banks and her hosts will use their social media following to connect with the television show for a “cross-platform” experience for viewers.

“Tyra is an enormous and vibrant talent with widespread appeal and we’re eager to introduce her new lifestyle show that will incorporate her personal message of self-confidence to the syndication marketplace,” said Disney-ABC Domestic Television president Janice Marinelli in a statement.

Tyra Banks also commented on her return to daytime television, “The fire to inspire women and help them to blaze new paths fiercely burns inside of me. I’m excited to be partnering with Disney-ABC to usher in a new era of lifestyle, beauty and entertainment that will inspire women to be the CEO of their lives via honesty, humor and the newest tips and tricks without being intimidating or precious. To my fierce fam of future viewers: I can’t wait to shake up daytime TV together. I have a lot of information to give and still lots to learn. Let’s do it!”

Tyra Banks previous talk show ran from 2005 until 2009. In 2010, The CW picked up the television series and later cancelled it after one season.

The former model and producer has had a longstanding TV career with her popular television series “America’s Next Top Model.” Last year, The CW renewed the show for it’s 21st season.

VH1 also gave the greenlight to Tyra Bank’s new television docu-series “TransAmerica,” which follows a group of Chicago women united by their shared experience of being transgender.

Tyra Banks started her career in the entertainment industry at 15 years old when she started modeling while attending school in Los Angeles. She was first rejected by four modeling agencies before she signed to Elite Model Management.

She got the chance to model in Europe and put college on hold and moved to Milan. In her first runway season, she was booked in 25 shows and would later grace the covers of magazines such as Elle, Teen Vogue and Vogue. She would walk the runways for Chanel, Valentino, Fendi and others.
