Tyra Banks to publish her first novel

New York, May 12 (ANI): Supermodel/talk show host Tyra Banks has announced that she will be publishing her first novel.

A press release from Random House, the publishers of the novel, which will be titled "Modelland", stated that it is one of a three-book deal, and is expected to be published in summer 2011.

"It's for all the girls and guys who want a lot more fantasy in their lives … and some fierceness and magic, romance and mystery, crazy and wild adventures, and yeah, some danger too," the New York Post quoted Banks as writing on her website describing her new book.

Banks, 36, authored a how-to make-up book in 1998, called "Tyra's Beauty, Inside and Out". "Modelland" will be her first fiction book. (ANI)
