LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Tyra Banks is replacing Nick Cannon as host of the 12th season of "America's Got Talent."
NBC says the supermodel, Emmy-winner and creator of "America's Next Top Model" will be joining the competition series alongside returning judges Simon Cowell, Mel B, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel.
Cannon left the show earlier this year after eight years hosting.
