Meet the sexy, educated and widely traveled star Miss Osas Ighodaro. Now Tinsel views can watch her perform live on DSTv's Tinsel. The US born Nigerian beauty queen, formerly Miss Black USA 2010.
On Tinsel Osas plays free-spirited and forthright
Adanna, an art student from the US who travels to Nigeria to find her inspiration. Honest and charming Adanna can light up a
room but her restless energy sees her searching for love, adventure and self-discovery.
Along the way, her unconventional interests will get her into all kinds of trouble. One thing is for sure – she’ll keep the
folks of Tinseltown guessing!
DStv audiences will see the talented Osas on screen for
the first time on November 8 and she will stay on the series until the end of
February. So there’s a lot of time for audiences to appreciate her skill,
passion and intelligence says M-Net Africa Managing Director Biola Alabi.
A graduate of Broadcast Journalism and dual minor degrees in
Entrepreneurship and Theatre at Pennsylvania State
University. She also holds a Masters of Fine Arts Degree in
Acting from the Actor’s Studio Drama School at Pace University.
Osas has featured in theatre productions such as The Colored Museum, Revenge
of the King, and the award winning off- Broadway play
Platanos & Collard Greens. Osas has performed in several films and TV
shows including Cadillac Records, 2011 Sundance Film Festival
selected: Restless City, The Tested & Tyler Perry’s Meet
the Browns. She is also a a devoted campaigner for social causes, focused on raising
awareness around malaria and heart disease.
In her own words “Having the opportunity to be here in Nigeria working on Tinsel has
been great!” The cast and crew are absolutely amazing, my storyline is so
exciting to work on and performing in the motherland is a dream come true! I'm
proud to be introduced to the African audience via the #1 Soap Opera in Africa” (referring to TINSEL).
She adds, “Adanna will certainly
bring her share of drama to Tinsel!”
We are excited to see Osas Ighodaro on Tinsel, every day on
