(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Tyra Banks wants to have babies before her eggs become "scrambled".

The America's Next Top Model host has been keeping busy thanks to the latest college-themed instalment of the series.

However, the gorgeous model is now worrying she hasn't left enough time to settle down and start a family.

"I'm really ready to have some babies. I want babies!" she revealed to American talkshow host Steve Harvey.

"I've always wanted them, but I've been saying, 'I want babies in three years,' since I was, like, 27. And now I'm 28... No, I'm 38 I think it's time. [My eggs are] going to be hard-boiled and fried and scrambled up in there, so it's time to get those eggs working!"

Tyra is currently single, but has been linked to her America's Next Top Model co-star Rob Evans.

Earlier this year, Tyra stripped 24-year-old Rob's shirt off during a promotional appearance on Good Morning America.

Tyra lifted the handsome model's T-shirt over his head live on stage, and the pair giggled and joked around in front of their audience.

However, Tyra insists isn't interested in dating younger men.

"I ain't no cougar," she confirmed.

The candid interview airs tomorrow in the US. (C) Cover Media
