At the just-ended Ghana in the Park event held in London on July 13, 2025, media personality Deloris Frimpong Manso, widely known as Delay, found herself in a lighthearted yet striking exchange with Ghanaian-American singer Moliy and her friend. The conversation, captured on video and now circulating across social media, has since stirred conversations online about the nature of Delay’s interviews and how some public figures perceive them.
In the now-viral video, Moliy and her friend met Delay at the venue. During their brief encounter, Moliy's friend brought up the widely held fear that many people reportedly feel when it comes to appearing on Delay’s popular television program, The Delay Show. Known for her tough, unfiltered questioning style, Delay is both admired and feared within Ghana’s entertainment circles for the way she probes into the personal and professional lives of her guests.
When the topic was raised, Delay responded with a rhetorical and rather unexpected question that sparked laughter and interest.
"Why? Are people unalived there or what?" Delay asked, confronting the notion that her show was intimidating to guests. Her question was laced with sarcasm, clearly aimed at challenging the narrative that The Delay Show is a dreaded platform.
Moliy, who stood beside her friend, watched the exchange unfold as Delay continued her explanation. With loud music blaring in the background at the festival, Delay made it clear that her show features prominent figures from across the entertainment world.
"But I am interviewing Mr Eazi and everyone," she stated, referring to the Nigerian singer and global music figure who has also sat with her for an episode. Her point emphasized that The Delay Show is not exclusive to controversial or struggling celebrities but is a platform open to influential personalities across the spectrum.
The interaction, although brief, has sparked an ongoing debate online. While some fans defend Delay’s direct approach as authentic journalism that gets to the heart of her guests' stories, others argue that the fear expressed by Moliy’s friend is valid, considering how intense some interviews can get.
Moliy, known for her unique Afro-fusion sound and rising global recognition, has yet to appear on The Delay Show. Whether this encounter with Delay will open that door remains to be seen.
