The Industry Report: Tyra Banks re-signs with IMG

tyra-banks

So Tyra Banks re-signed with IMG! I have to admit that I am a little bit shocked because of her announcing her retirement a few years back to blaze her own trail. But as smart as Tyra is, she knows how to play her cards. As I said before, the average editorial model has a short lifespan in the modeling industry. You're retired by age 22 because by then, you're too old! But there are other opportunities such as commercial modeling and acting. The acting industry is hard to break into as well, unless you know someone. She went from just a (super) model to having her own show- Not one but two! ANTM and The Tyra Show. She even inspired other supermodels, such as Heidi Klum, to jump on the bandwagon as well. I'm happy her! Go ahead and keep building that empire!
