TYRA BANKS - BANKS 'NOT QUITTING' TOP MODEL

Retired supermodel and TV host TYRA BANKS has dismissed reports she is to leave her reality show AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL. The former catwalk beauty was rumoured to be quitting the hit series after a number of fights with fellow mentor Jay Manuel and the pair are reportedly "not speaking". It was also alleged Banks' stint on America's Next Top Model was "detracting" her from her "big plans" to focus on her chatshow, The Tyra Banks Show. But Banks' spokesperson insists the reports are wildly inaccurate. The representative tells Usmagazine.com: "The rumours about Tyra leaving and the fight with Jay are not true!"
