Tyra Banks leaves the ballroom: Deadline has confirmed she will no longer host Dancing with the stars on Disney+
Banks first joined the show in Season 29 on ABC to take over for the outgoing Tom Bergeron. Her tenure had mixed results; while adding another level of energy to the ballroom, her live exchanges with both the judges and contestants were often awkward. Her grand entrances also eclipsed the pros, who remain a huge draw for a long time DWTS fans.
last season, DWTS paired Banks with Season 19 Mirrorball Champion Alfonso Ribeiro.
TMZ was the first to break the news about Banks.
Disney+ has not yet announced a new season DWTS, but it is expected to continue on the streamer. The show has gone through several changes in the past year; Judge Len Goodman said he was leaving the franchise, and pros Cheryl Burke and Mark Ballas revealed they were also putting up their Danskins.
The streamer has yet to release ratings for the dance competition show, which continues to make headlines for its casting decisions and fierce performances.
