Tyra Banks, the host of Dancing With The Stars seasons 29 and 30, has now become an executive producer for a new teenage drag series on Discovery+.

Former fans called out the host for bullying contestants for their weight and appearance and also for a controversial shoot she did where each model had to dress up as a person of a different race and ethnicity. Tyra has since apologized, but fans haven't exactly forgiven her. They're hoping the reports of Tyra leaving DWTS are true as they also miss former long-time host Tom Bergeron. Tom was let go in 2019 after disputes with a producer, but since that specific producer has left the show, fans are hoping he'll make a return. It's unlikely to happen though, after Tom posted a cryptic tweet recently indicating that he has moved on from the show.
