Would You Work For Tyra?

Now that her talk show is calling it quits, people sure have a lot to say about Tyra Banks. Most of it is not pretty by a long shot. Hear what sources are saying about the former supermodel after the jump.

Of course, many were surprised to hear that Tyra, the talk show hosted by the glamour goddess would be no more after five seasons. Now that the word is out, unflattering words about Ms. Banks have followed.

For starters, employees say that she was extremely cruel and hard to work for.

A source quoted in the New York Daily News had this to say:

“There had been a high turnover of employees for years.
She and the higher-ups on the production staff could be extremely brutal. She really is a diva.”

Beyond that, however, many are speculating that Tyra had not planned to end her show. Instead, they say that her network, The CW, canceled it because it was getting too expensive and the ratings were not high enough.

“An insider told us the show was cancelled simply because it cost too much – it never recovered financially from the move from LA to NY that Tyra insisted on, plus Tyra’s salary was huge,” wrote celebrity gossip blogger Janet Charlton.

Sources also say that Banks refused to give employees advance notice about the end of the talk show. One source says that she simply told her employees to “get their resumes together.”

That doesn’t seem like ‘model behavior’ to me.

Do you think Tyra chose to end her show or that it was canceled? Would you work for Tyra? Let me know in the comments section!

    Good stuff. I’d probably still work for them if the price was right. I could give a damn what is said to me. Oh I’ll get payback but they won’t know who did it lol.

    I knew she was fake from the get go, not to mention she jacked up the heads of alot females out there.

    I’m about to break out the ciroc and tost to this lol.

  • Haha, dude you are wild.

  • Frost says:

    Yes, I would.

    But I would probably get fired because I wouldn’t put up with any disrespect. I expect treatment the same as what I give out.

    Any smartassness would quickly be responded with more smartassness.

    Id work for her. Im use to ppl being smart, and or sarcastic and hard. It is how I was raised. I in fact am kind of the same way. No time for procrastination, and or setbacks, in her line of work certain things need to be done a certain way. Like the old saying goes go hard or go home.

    i would hate to work for tyra. some people don’t deserve my respect and from what i read about her and watching her contrived emotions i couldn’t take it.

    I like to make money don’t get me wrong, but some people i just would never deal with. she’s at the top of the list, followed by paris hilton and rush limbaugh

    LOL at Rick….

    I didn’t know she was nasty, you never know with these celebrities. No I wouldn’t work for her b/c I’m a diva too and we’ll clash and then they would fire me! I thought she was trying to follow Oprah once again, but I guess not.
