A few posts back we mentioned how Tyra announced  that she was closing down the production of The Tyra Show, and that the CURRENT season was her last. Well apparently her workers found out while we were finding out.

Here’s what some of her current and past employees had to say:

“There had been high turnover of employees for years. It was pretty difficult to work for Tyra. She and the higher-ups on the production staff could be extremely brutal. She really is a diva.” — said one employee

“Everything had to be done Tyra’s way.” — said another bitter one

“When the show moved from L.A. to New York, several staffers weren’t even directly told about the change – they heard through the grapevine that it was going to move locations. Even so, a lot of those people gave up their lives on the West Coast so they could continue working for the show. Now they’re out of luck.” — said another source

“Honestly, I don’t know how it would be to work under her. But for me, it was a good experience. Tyra just knows how she likes things done. And as for her ‘diva-ness,’ well, it sells.” — said her mom, oops I mean another source

Tyra girl, I hope they’re all just pressed and you not out here acting like Naomi Campbell behind closed doors!


Tyra Banks Ending Her Show

After 5 seasons Tyra has decided to end her show at the end of this season

Tyra Banks is ending her daytime TV talk show.

The supermodel-turned-TV-mogul told People that she will wrap up her talk show at the end of its current season – its fifth — this coming spring.

“This will be the last season of ‘The Tyra Show,'” Tyra told the mag. “I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms [and] hair salons for the past five years.”

Instead of sitting down to talk to guests on a daily basis, Tyra will shift her focus to Bankable Studios, a film production company based in New York. The mag reported that the company is taking a look at potential projects to produce.

“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,” Tyra said.

Like her television show, Bankable will seek to bring “positive images of women to the big screen,” a source told the mag. And Tyra hopes to have Bankable work on “redefining beauty for women in film,” the source added.

“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,” the source said, referencing Oprah’s news that she will leave “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in September 2011 to concentrate on OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network.

Tyra will stay committed, however, to her longtime reality competition, “America’s Next Top Model,” which recently crowned its first petite model winner, Nicole Fox. The show will return in 2010 with its 14th season.

Well, I for one thought that Tyra would jump for joy after hearing that Oprah was ending her show. Looks like Ellen will take over daytime TV. Wendy and Mo’Nique (if she gets off EBT) might have a good chance as well. A letter from Tyra herself after the jump. Continue reading
