After Nick Cannon's abrupt exit from “America's Got Talent” last month, the show has found its new host — Tyra Banks!
On Sunday, the show revealed Tyra as its new host on Twitter, writing, "America, strike a pose. #AGT has a brand-new host! Welcome to the fam, @tyrabanks!”
Tyra tweeted, "Can't wait 2work w/new fam @OfficialMelB @howiemandel @heidiklum & @SimonCowell.”
The 43-year-old will start work on the 12th season of “America's Got Talent,” which reportedly took a week off production after Mel B's father passed away.
Banks successfully transitioned from Victoria's Secret supermodel to the host of “America's Next Top Model,” which she hosted for 22 seasons.
