NEW YORK, Dec. 28 (UPI) -- U.S. talk-show host Tyra Banks says the fifth season of "The Tyra Show" will be its last.

"This will be the last season of 'The Tyra Show,'" Banks told People magazine Monday. "I've been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past five years."

The former supermodel said she is wrapping up the show this spring, so she can focus on starting up a New York-based film production company called Bankable Studios.

"My next huge steps will allow me to reach more women and young girls to help us all feel as fierce as we truly are," Banks told the magazine.
