Tyra Banks, the leggy supermodel, entrepreneur and philanthropist bid farewell to her daytime television talk show with the airing of the last show of The Tyra Banks Show.
After five years and 810 tapings Banks said that her most memorable moment was interviewing President Barack Obama when he was the senator from Illinois who was a presidential candidate.
Banks stated, “I was so nervous, sick to my stomach and my hands were shaking. I asked him to look into the crystal ball and said, ‘What do you see in your future, Senator?’ And without hesitation he replied, ‘The White House.’ That clip ran on CNN and every national morning show. I’ll never forget being a part of political history.”
Banks will now focus her attention on her Bankable Production company and continue to bring hit television shows to the small screen and step into producing feature films as well. She is also set to return to the catwalk after retiring years ago to start her talk show.
