Disney-ABC announced in a press release that supermodel and media mogul Tyra Banks will host and executive produce a new daily lifestyle talk show in 2015.
Banks will reportedly lead a team of lifestyle experts on a wide-range of topics. To reach the broadest audience possible, the show will incorporate several different forms of media for a cross-platform experience. This decision came from Banks’s impressive Twitter following of more than 28 million people. Her co-hosts are also very digitally connected.
The show has yet to be named, but it will be broadcast from Los Angeles.
Disney-ABC’s Summerdale Productions will produce the show, while Tyra Banks herself will serve as executive producer. Disney-ABC Domestic Television will serve as distributer.
The show will cover topics from fashion to beauty to home to entertainment. Banks plans to welcome celebrities and internet influencers, as well as experts and everyday, knowledgeable people on her talk show.
“Tyra is an enormous and vibrant talent with widespread appeal and we’re eager to introduce her new lifestyle show that will incorporate her personal message of self-confidence to the syndication marketplace,” Disney-ABC Domestic Television President Janice Marinelli said.
