“From the minute you meet Osas, you’re dazzled. She’s smart, thoughtful and humble. She’s a great addition to the Tinsel cast and we were delighted when she approached us about guest starring on the show. She’s passionate about her Nigerian roots, about entertainment and about making the most of every opportunity. We are thrilled she’s joined the AfricaMagic family.”
A graduate of Pennsylvania State University, Osas has a Bachelors’ of Arts degree in Broadcast Journalism and dual minor degrees in Entrepreneurship and Theatre. She also holds a Masters of Fine Arts Degree in Acting from the Actor’s Studio Drama School at Pace University.

Speaking about her role on Tinsel, the actress says, “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 – Tinsel.”
And in closing Osas encourages audiences to tune in to the soap opera daily because, “Adanna will certainly bring her share of drama to Tinsel!”
