Anna Delvey, real name Anna Sorokin, is prepared to affix the solid of the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars, with all the correct authorization.
The Inventing Anna subject—who was convicted of larceny after allegedly posing as a German heiress and scamming hundreds of dollars from Recent York’s elites to fund her luxurious lifestyle—shall be on Season 33 of ABC’s long-running dance competition show, which premieres on Sept. 17.
The network announced Delvey—who’s paired with skilled dancer Ezra Sosa—as a part of the solid on Sept. 4 and teased the debut of the “notorious ankle bracelet fashionista.”
Delvey was released from prison in 2021 after serving 4 years but has since been on house arrest while fighting her deportation case. Her spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, confirmed to the Associated Press that Delvey could “travel inside 70 miles of her home base and anywhere within the five boroughs of Recent York City under previous house arrest conditions.”
In an interview with E! News, the socialite shared, “I’ve been waiting to get permission from ICE to travel out of state,” but noted that she still has other travel restrictions. With approval from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), she is capable of compete in person while the show movies in Los Angeles.

EZRA SOSA, ANNA DELVEY
Regarding his dancing partner, Sosa said, “I’m obsessed along with her.” He also noted that he’s “excited for America to really see” Delvey and “how she is,” adding that she has “danceability.”
“The media has seen a representation of her that I personally think will not be her,” he added, expressing that he looks forward to everyone meeting “the true Anna Delvey.”
Delvey and Sosa will remain in Recent York for the subsequent few weeks leading as much as the series premiere because she is currently producing a Recent York Fashion Week show with former America’s Next Top Model judge Kelly Cutrone.
Along with Delvey, other announced solid members include Dwight Howard, Tori Spelling, Eric Roberts, Super Bowl champion Danny Amendola, actor Chandler Kinney, Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher, model Brooks Nader, Bravo star Phaedra Parks, actor Reginald VelJohnson, and Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik.
The most recent Bachelor and Bachelorette stars Joey Graziadei and Jenn Tran can even compete.
