Tyra Banks is back and in more ways than one.
The trailblazing supermodel bowed out from that role when setting sail on her quest to become a media maven.
And having accomplished that goal, she recently took a step away from the key driver of her empire – ‘America’s Next Top Model.’ During which time she became a mother, went to Harvard, and dabbled in other ventures.
Still, it seems home is where the heart is. So, not only is Tyra back as host of ‘Top Model’ (a role she relinquished to Rita Ora), she’s also in front of the lens again to promote it.
Case in point her fierce new shoot for PAPER.
Beyond her collection of edgy shots, she explains in her inside feature why she decided to return to ANTM.
