Rita Ora is out, and Tyra Banks is back in.
Tyra will take over as the host of VH1’s America’s Next Top Model when the show presumably returns this fall.
Tyra had the following to say about her return to America’s Next Top Model: “I’m overwhelmed and humbled by the intensity of the ‘ANTM’ fan base whose deep affection for the show led me to have a change of heart. After giving it a lot of thought, I realized that remaining behind the camera wasn’t enough because ‘ANTM’ is woven into my DNA.”
Tyra also tweeted about the big news and made sure to praise Rita in the process.
I missed my ANTM baby so Mama’s back! #ANTM #ANTM24
