Anna Delvey, notoriously known for her con artistry and fraudulent persona as a wealthy heiress, has taken to social media to share her thoughts on the truth series The Anonymous.
The 33-year-old has been engrossed within the competition show, telling E! News that the series is “all about deception.” She added, “I would know a thing or two about deception.”
Formerly often known as Anna Sorokin, Delvey served nearly 4 years in prison for grand larceny and theft of services, where she scammed 1000’s of dollars. She used invalid bank cards and deceived banks to govern her way into high society and slot in with the social elite.
The series describes itself as a show where all players “have their very own private underground hideouts where each is totally anonymous and might say anything and all the things behind the mask of a novel handle… Of their hideouts, players can provide raw, unfiltered takes on their fellow contestants. They may scheme, connive, and deceive to construct influence and advance their game.” This idea mirrors the fake lifestyle Anna once led.
She offered advice to contestants, saying, “Never be afraid to decorate up your look—or the reality… trust me, I’d never deceive you.”
Since her release from prison, Anna stays under house arrest and has reflected on her past actions. In an interview with The Latest York Times, she shared, “I learned a lot being in jail. There’s a really well-documented arc about how I’ve felt about all the things… I’m regretful concerning the way things played out. The way in which I’ve tried to see my experience is to learn from it: Who I’m today is due to the choices I made prior to now.”
She added, “I perform higher under pressure. So many individuals just can’t wait to see me do something crazy, or illegal, and return to jail. I’d not want to provide them the satisfaction.”
Now that she’s answerable for her life again, Anna has turn into a podcast host for “The Anna Delvey Show.” In 2023, she also released her own song, “What the Hell,” featuring artists Brooke Butler and Audio Chateau.
