Tyra Banks, is that you?!

Cape Town - It’s been a while since we’ve seen the original America’s Top Model in action – so this is definitely the comeback we’ve all been waiting for!

The former supermodel graced the cover of Paper Magazine in a series of seductive feline costumes. From a sexy catsuit to a ferocious tiger, the looks were just puurrrfect for the model-turned-businesswoman.

So does this mean that the 43-year-old will be returning to the, err, ‘cat’-walk soon?

Not quite.

She told the magazine that she wouldn’t be returning to runway modelling.

“That was a different phase of my career," she explained.

“A fierce one, mind you, but the past. It would take a hell of a lot of convincing to get me to come out of retirement."

The mother-of-one is also now back on the market after splitting up with her boyfriend of five years, Erik Asla, back in October, reported US Weekly.

The two plan to co-parent their baby boy, York, who was born via surrogate in January last year.
