Tyra Banks Bites Oprah Again; Says Goodbye To Talk Show

Talk show Diva Tyra Banks is biting Oprah again after Oprah made a headline grabbing announcement that her popular talk show would end its run in 2011 (two years from now).

Tyra, who has been accused of biting Oprah’s ideas such as her popular “favorite things” show, is now announcing the end of The Tyra Show.

“This will be the last season of The Tyra Show,” Banks tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past 5 years.”

Wrapping at the end of its fifth season in the spring of 2010, it will be lights out for the show that brought viewers memorable weave-exposing, cellulite-revealing and tear-jerking moments.

Banks will focus on the launch of Bankable Studios, a N.Y.-based film production company currently reviewing possible projects. Sticking to her mission, Banks aims to bring “positive images of women to the big screen,” says an industry insider.

“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,” Banks says. Read More…

Apparently, Tyra misses life in general and is tired of the daily grind of a TV talk show. There’s no mention of her ratings as the primary reason for her show’s ending.

    When is the last time someone watched that show? She has the most absurd topics, the corniest guests. She is too goofy. I saw it one night when 50 CENT was up there, she was such a freaking groupie. Now if we could get rid of ANTM, we will be all good.

    Tyra sucks! Good riddance to bad rubbish. She is way too extra, her guests (cast) are horrible actors and many of her shows were very jenny jones/ ricky lake-ish.

    I don’t really watch Tyra. Just catch some recaps if someone posts about it online. But Oprah is leaving in 2011 so nobody will be paying her any mind with her (tyra’s) reitirement.
