Two Canceled Series Are Back From The Dead
'The Voice': Singing Michael Jackson Emotional For Judith…
Tyra Banks has decided to come out of her modeling retirement and re-signed with her previous agency, IMG. Banks left the runway in 2005 to concentrate on her television projects including 'America's Next Top Model' and 'The Tyra Banks Show.' With her talk show coming to a close, Tyra is putting time into what made her famous in the first place.
Her first order of business will be a tribute to her late friend, Alexander McQueen. She wore head to toe McQueen in an over the top fashion spread for her online magazine. "McQueen was considered royalty in the fashion community," she said in her site. "I would like to think that he would have loved these photos."
That is not that only way that Banks has decided to honor the fashion royalty. She has dedicated the latest and final season of 'America's Next Top Model' to the designer. Alexander McQueen died in February when he took his own life.
Banks is also working on a book, "Modelland," that will be released in the summer of 2011.

I guess hard times are hitting even the rich! Usually when someone retires, then has to go back to work is for monetary reasons.

Tyra continues to make an impact on the fashion/modeling industry....as she continues to reinvent herself. One can only applaud her contributions especially as she always finds ways to acknowledge the impact individuals offer such as the late Alexander McQueen.
