“I said I was going to do it, and here it is!” crows Banks, 36, in a message to fans on her Web site. “It’s for all the girls and guys who want a lot more FANTASY in their lives … and some fierceness and magic, romance and mystery, crazy and wild adventures, and yeah, some danger too. It’s my novel called ‘Modelland’ (pronounced “Model Land”) that takes you to a fantastical place you’ve never seen, or heard about, or read about before … Where dreams come true and life can change in the blink of a smoky eye.”

‘Modelland’ is the debut novel in a three-book deal Banks signed with publisher Random House. Although there were hints, neither plot details nor a release date have been announced. The project appears to have been simmering on Banks’ mental back-burner for quite some time.

“Modelland has always been a part of my mind and my heart,” said Tyra, who was the first African American model on the cover of GQ, Sports Illustrated and Victoria’s Secret. “I’m excited that you’ll be able to read about this magical world that’s been living in my dreams for so many years.” She previously won a Daytime Emmy Award for her work on ‘The Tyra Banks Show.’

Tyra Banks

Tyra Banks has announced that the fifth season of her show will be the last season of her show.
That means no more episodes of Tyra dressing up in a fat suit.

Tyra Banks says that she will now focus more on her movie production company Bankable Films. She says she will continue to do things that will keep women and girls “fierce.” Whatever that means. (Didn’t someone on Project Runway say that?) You’ll also get to see Banks on other shows, including The CW’s America’s Next Top Model and ABC’s True Beauty.

Tyra Banks Named Hardest-Working Celebrity

Tyra Banks has been named the hardest-working person in showbusiness in a new online poll, according to Contact Music.
The model, talk show host and TV presenter has become a minimogul since she stepped down from the catwalk in 2006 – and now she has landed at the top of a new survey aimed at finding America’s hardest-working celebrity.

Banks beat American Idol host and DJ Ryan Seacrest, Jennifer Lopez, Heidi Klum and Sean `Diddy’ Combs to claim the top spot on Parade.com’s annual Summer Pop Culture poll.

The poll also claimed Oprah Winfrey as the celebrity most people would like as a next-door neighbour and Nicole Richie beat Mel Gibson and Tom Cruise to become the celebrity with the Most Improved Reputation.
Meanwhile, voters chose Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer as the Most Unlikely Couple and Halle Berry beat out Jennifer Lopez and Jessica Alba to claim the Hottest New Mama crown.

The latest to defend the 15-year-old is supermodel Tyra Banks.

Tyra Banks says everyone needs to leave the Hannah Montana star alone. “She is a 15-year-old, and I just wish everybody would leave her alone!” Banks said on The View Wednesday.

The talk show host said she could remember being young and having job offers for similar shoots. “There were definitely jobs they would ask me to do,” Banks said. She said her mom always helped her decide which ones were appropriate.

In Miley Cyrus’ pictures she appears to be topless. She released a statement saying she “feels embarrassed” after seeing the finished product.

Miley Cyrus has apologized for the photos; and Annie Leibovitz — the photographer behind the pictures — said she was sorry for any misinterpretation.
