The event MC and entertainment pundit, whose real name is David Adjei Frimpong, said he had approached Black Sherif to simply offer his congratulations.
Black Sherif had won five awards at the 2026 TGMA, including the ultimate, Artiste Of The Year, which he won after stiff competition from Medikal.
However, MC Portfolio's supposed good intentions did not end well for him. What he got instead left him standing there, hand outstretched, in front of everyone.

"I was very embarrassed, to be honest, because I was just trying to congratulate him. He's even the one who bumped into me, and I stretched my hand. My hand was hanging, he looked at me from head to toe three times and snubbed me," MC Portfolio said during a discussion with DJ Slim.
He stated that he still does not fully understand why. His best guess was that it may be connected to a conversation his team had with Black Sherif's manager on the same podcast, but he was not certain.
"I don't know if it's because we had a discussion with his manager here on the podcast, or if there's something else," he said. "This is the first time I'm getting to know he has a personal issue with me."
What made the snub sting more, MC Portfolio said, is the history. He was among the first people in the industry to publicly back Black Sherif before the fame arrived, recommending him, putting him on platforms, watching him grow.
"Blacko is the least person I would have issues with and one of the artistes I normally recommend and put on. I was shocked he embarrassed me like that on the red carpet," he said.
He stopped short of anger, though. Despite the public slight, MC Portfolio said he remains proud of the role he played in the musician's journey and still admires what Black Sherif has become.
"I'm still proud of the fact that I'm one of the earliest people to put him on and to see him come this far," he added.
