No more ‘Top Model’ for Tyra Banks?

"Gisele Maaaaail!" Somehow it just doesn't have the same ring…but such a change may already be in the works if Tyra Banks is really planning on leaving the cast of America's Next Top Model. It looks like this could be the last go round for Tyra on the hit show if the catfights continue off the catwalk between her and Jay Manuel. Has her daytime talkshow success gone to her head? Not sure, but Dotspotter blogger, Celebritymound, offers insight on this very hot mess…

 

There’s been no shortage of tales about Tyra Banks’ personality conflicts on the set of “America’s Next Top Model,” but the latest might be the most interesting since it could have a lasting impact on the show. OK! magazine reports that Banks isn’t getting along with photo shoot creative director Jay Manuel, and her days on the show could be numbered.

 

“It’s gotten so bad that Tyra and Jay aren’t speaking,” an insider told OK! magazine. The selective silent treatment isn’t limited to Manuel, either. “Tyra barely interacts with the contestants and only wants to show up on judging day,” the source told the magazine.

 

Net result? Banks (who wouldn’t comment on the rumors) might be looking for a new supermodel to helm ANTM. “She’s really throwing all her weight behind her talk show,” according to a source familiar with “The Tyra Banks Show.” “She’s putting lots of pressure on her staff to keep her show on the map. She had Barack Obama on, she had Hilary Clinton on — she got a taste of playing with the big boys and now ‘Top Model’ seems to detract from her big plans.”
