Laura Bozzo's controversial TV show has been cancelled after years of being on the air throughout Latin America since the 1990s.

A statement from Televisa, the Mexican network currently producing "Laura," says the last episode of the infamous show will air on Dec. 31, 2015.

As La Prensa reports, despite the fact that her show has been canceled, Bozzo recently signed a contract extension with the network.

Bozzo, who hails originally from Peru, will be focusing on the design and development of a new show which is meant to draw a new kind of audience. The talk show host was the one who reportedly asked for the show to end.

"Today more than ever I feel like what Televisa is my home, and I appreciate greatly to give me the opportunity to work in the reinvention of my program," said the 64-year old TV personality.

Bozzo’s show has been controversial for years, a Latin American version of "The Jerry Springer Show."

In 2013, after Bozzo used the world "putita” to refer to one of her female guests, nearly 50 civic organizations demanded that the Mexican government get Televisa to cancel the Laura Bozzo program.

Bozzo told her guest that she should be in jail for prostitution.

According to Latin American Herald Tribune, Francisco Muñoz, a representative for the Citizens’ Council for Gender Equality in the Media, described the cultural line she had crossed by using the derisive and vulgar world. “That insult was the straw that broke the camel’s back. We’re not just upset about the word ‘putita’ but because the ‘Laura’ show subjects both guests and her team to aggression and discrimination,” he said.

Bozzo apologized for her remark two days later and justified her use of the word by saying that “putita” is a word that gets used all the time in countries like Argentina, Peru, and Colombia without offending anyone.

Muñoz said Bozzo's behavior perpetuated a kind of psychological violence directed at women and said his group had received hundreds of responses from people wanting to sign a petition to get Bozzo off the air

Bozzo faced controversy years back in Peru, when she was prosecuted for taking bribes to provide favorable coverage of former President Alberto Fujimori. Fujimori is now imprisoned and Bozzo left Peru, moving to Mexico.

"Laura" aired on Univision in the U.S.
