Shows Rita Ora Spills the Advice Tyra Banks Gave Her For Filling Her Shoes as Host of America’s Next Top Model "[Tyra] said, 'You have to be a role model for these girls. You have to represent what it is that they're trying to win." by Damian Bellino 12/9/2016 Embedded from media.mtvnservices.com. </noscript> </div> On Monday (December 12th), Rita Ora will take the reigns from Tyra Banks as host of America’s Next Top Model and at the premiere party Ora spilled what advice the supermodel gave her for taking on the job. “Being a host, first and foremost, I said, ’What does that mean?’ [Tyra] said, ’You have to be a role model for these girls. You have to represent what it is that they’re trying to win and I knew that and I felt that by looking back at me being 26 and having the opportunity to really be myself creatively.” Ora went on to say that Banks encouraged her to share with the girls her busy schedule from making music to designing so the girls know what they’re signing up for pursuing the industry. Mother Tyra knows what she’s doing, so we can’t wait to see Rita as host on the premiere of America’s Next Top Model, Monday at 10/9c.
