Showtym at One: A Star-Studded Celebration on Adom TV
It was all glitz, emotion, and pure energy inside the Adom TV studios as Sally Mann’s “Showtym” marked its first anniversary in grand style. The celebration brought together some of Ghana’s biggest names, turning the night into a spectacle of laughter, inspiration, and unforgettable moments.
The night kicked off in spectacular fashion with Efe Keyz and her band, who set the tone with electrifying live music that had the audience on their feet from the very start.
From Stonebwoy, Samini, Kuami Eugene, Kofi Kinaata, Okyeame Kwame, Okyeame Kofi, Piesie Esther, Ras Kuuku, Epixode, Osebo the Zaraman, Gloria Sarfo, Bandex, and many more — it was a gathering of stars showing love and support to one of their own.
Stonebwoy congratulated Sally for her remarkable journey, saying, “Congratulations to Sally for her tremendous contribution to the industry. As Showtym turns one, we celebrate you and tell you to keep shining. One day, I’ll be on the show.”
Samini also sent in his best wishes, describing Sally as one of the few bold voices in entertainment. Okyeame Kwame commended her honesty and confidence, saying, “Sally is exciting to watch and she speaks the truth always.”
Vida Adutwumwaa, Head of Public Relations at Burniton Music Group, presented Ghandour Cosmetics products to Sally on behalf of Stonebwoy and Dr. Louisa, praising her for her consistency and impact. Vida also encouraged the entertainment industry to give women more freedom to express themselves and take up space.
One of the most beautiful highlights of the night came when Andy Dosty, the former host of Showtym, made a surprise appearance live on air. Sally welcomed him with a warm hug as the two shared fond memories of the show’s journey and evolution. Their exchange reflected mutual respect and admiration, setting a lighthearted tone that got everyone smiling.
The emotional moment of the night came later when Sally spoke about Agyemang Prempeh. Fighting back tears, she expressed heartfelt gratitude for his unwavering support and guidance throughout her media journey.
Gloria Sarfo praised Sally’s growth and confidence, describing her as “a woman who is fearless, focused, and refreshing to watch.”
Ras Kuuku said, “We’re like family, so I came to join in your one-year celebration.” Piesie Esther added, “I always pray for Sally Mann anytime I see her on any show.” Kofi Kinaata also shared, “Thank you for keeping me in your good books, Sally.”
In a nostalgic moment, Okyeame Kofi revealed that Mark Okraku-Mantey once gave them his shirt to shoot Akyeame’s first album cover — a story that brought laughter across the room.
Bandex, a respected figure in Ghana’s entertainment industry, commended Sally for her courage and for “holding her ground in an industry that’s not always kind to outspoken women.”
MC Yaa Yeboah wrapped it beautifully, saying, “The pace at which within one year she has grown the show and given other stations competition is amazing.”
Then came the grand finale — DKB, in his typical hilarious fashion, popped a bottle of champagne on Sally during the live show, drenching the studio in laughter and celebration.
