Anna Delvey, formerly known as Anna Sorokin, has stirred up conversations once again, this time on social media, where she shares her views on the reality series The Anonymous. The 33-year-old, infamous for her elaborate con artistry and fraudulent claims of being a wealthy heiress, expressed her interest in the show, noting its focus on deception—a subject she claims to know well.
Delvey, who served nearly four years in prison for grand larceny and theft of services, gained notoriety for defrauding banks and high society using fake credit cards and deceptive practices. Her elaborate schemes and manipulation allowed her to infiltrate elite circles, a life she portrayed as part of her persona.
The Anonymous is described as a reality competition show where contestants operate from secretive underground hideouts. Each participant maintains anonymity and can express unfiltered opinions behind a pseudonym. The show’s format, which involves scheming and deception to influence and advance, mirrors the deceitful lifestyle Delvey once led.
In a recent interview with E! News, Delvey commented on the series, stating, “I might know a thing or two about deception.” She also offered advice to the contestants, suggesting they should, “Never be afraid to dress up your look—or the truth… trust me, I’d never lie to you.”
Since her release from prison, Delvey has been under house arrest and has used this time to reflect on her past. In a candid interview with The New York Times, she discussed her experiences and the lessons learned during her incarceration. “I learned so much being in jail. There’s a very well-documented arc about how I’ve felt about everything… I am regretful about the way things played out. The way I’ve tried to see my experience is to learn from it: Who I am today is because of the decisions I made in the past,” she shared.
Delvey also addressed public expectations, saying, “I perform better under pressure. So many people just can’t wait to see me do something crazy, or illegal, and go back to jail. I would not want to give them the satisfaction.”
In her new phase of life, Anna Delvey has taken on several new roles. She hosts her own podcast, The Anna Delvey Show, where she continues to engage with the public and share her insights. In 2023, she also ventured into music with the release of her single, “What the Hell,” featuring artists Brooke Butler and Audio Chateau.
Anna Delvey’s recent activities and reflections highlight her ongoing engagement with themes of deception and personal growth. As she navigates her post-incarceration life, her insights and new ventures continue to capture public attention and spark discussion.
