scheduled to make her highly anticipated return to daytime
television with “The FAB Life,” a lifestyle chat show launching in
the fall of 2015.
“As a network that celebrates talent and personalities who ‘pop’

place for what I believe will be a truly memorable night on the
legendary Warner Bros. Studios lot,” said, Bob Mauro, President,

only the multi-versatile Tyra Banks and some of the most beautiful
and talented daytime stars to cheer, they will also have one of
television’s most beloved performers, Betty White, as she’s honored
for her extraordinary career. Somebody pinch me!”
“Are you ready to get your Smize on?” exclaimed Tyra Banks. “I’m
honored to be hosting the Daytime Emmy Awards and can’t wait to
bring a fresh edge and lots of surprises to the show. It’s a big
year! I’m shaking things up, starting with a new look and a
brand-new daytime talk show launching in the fall. I’m pumped to be
partnering with a fun, new network like Pop to celebrate daytime TV
and the diehard fans that watch every day. Let’s do this!”

About Tyra Banks
Expanding the definition of beauty is something Tyra has always
believed in, as a supermodel and as a super-businesswoman. Six
modeling agencies rejected her before she was signed at the age of
15 years old. Now, hundreds of magazine covers and thousands of
runways later, Tyra grooms the next generation of models to make
their dreams come true. For the last decade, she has been the
Creator and Executive Producer of “America’s Next Top Model”
(ANTM), the first and longest running fashion competition-based
reality television series. ANTM currently airs in 186 countries and
has 26 international versions that span from “Asia’s, to Africa’s,
to Australia’s Next Top Model.”
An original “Victoria’s Secret” angel, Tyra was also the first
model to grace the cover of “GQ” and the first African-American
model to be featured on the covers of “Sports Illustrated” swimsuit
issue, which featured her for two consecutive years, and the
“Victoria Secrets” catalogue. She was named one of the “Hollywood
Reporter’s” “100 Most Powerful Women in Entertainment” and
“Entertainment Weekly’s” “25 Smartest in Television.” She was
honored as one of “Glamour Magazine’s” coveted “Women of the Year,”
alongside former U.S. Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and
Hillary Rodham Clinton. She won two Emmy Awards for “The Tyra Banks
Show,” the first show ever to receive the award in the new
“Informative” category. Her infamous line, “KISS MY FAT ASS!” made
“TV Guide Magazine’s” 60 Greatest Talk Show Moments. She was listed
twice on “Time Magazine’s” “100 Most Influential People in the
World” and took the no. 1 spot on “Forbes’” list of top earning
women in primetime for two years in a row.
Tyra is CEO of The Tyra Banks Company—a place where beauty meets
entertainment. In 2012, she graduated from the Owner/President
Management program at Harvard Business School and is a proud alum.
She recently developed Fierce Capital, the investment arm of The
Tyra Banks Company, which invests in early-stage companies,
including firms that are female-led or female-focused. Her passion
is the TZONE Foundation, a non-profit organization that invests in
young women to help them realize their ambitions and approach
life’s challenges with fierce determination. The TZONE now takes
residence at the Lower Eastside Girls Club Center for Community in
New York City and focuses on five core pillars: entrepreneurship,
financial literacy, elocution and self-presentation, health and
wellness, and self- esteem, beauty and body image.
Most recently in 2014, Tyra launched a one-of-a-kind cosmetics
experience – “TYRA beauty.” With a radically fierce, fresh and
unique approach to the beauty industry, “TYRA beauty” is powered by
the strategic collision of beauty and entertainment, coined
‘Beautytainment’ by Banks. “TYRA Beauty” is a 100% self-funded
company and is dream near and dear to Banks’ heart with the goal of
creating a legacy brand that provides anyone and everyone the
opportunity to become the CEO of her or his own life.
Starting in the fall of 2015, Tyra will host and executive
produce a new syndicated lifestyle daytime talk show for Disney-ABC
called “The FAB Life.” Tyra will lead a team of lifestyle experts
on a wide-range of topics. With Tyra’s 35 million social media
followers across all channels, the show will offer a true
cross-platform experience and will broadcast from Los Angeles.
