Exclusive | Anna Delvey is doing ‘Dancing with the Stars’
From prison bars to “Dancing with the Stars!”
“Fake heiress” turned fashion publicist Anna Delvey has signed on for a ballroom reality show, Page Six has learned.
Delvey was jailed in 2019 for posing as a German heiress and defrauding businesses and individuals out of more than $250,000.
She has been under house arrest since 2022, waiting to learn whether she will be allowed to stay in the US after completing her sentence. But as Page Six recently reported, the conditions of her house arrest have recently been relaxed, allowing her to work and travel freely within 70 miles of her home.
He has also been given a social security number and allowed to return to social media.
It seems she’s been given special permission to travel to L.A., where she shoots tapes of the long-running ABC reality competition.
She’s not the first contestant to have spent some time in prison. Previous candidates Tommy Chong, Lil Kim and Steve-O have all seen the inside of a cell. But she appears to be the first “DWTS” contestant to become a household name Because Information was given about his criminal activities.
We hear she has already left for LA to prepare for the competition.
It’s going to be a busy time for the ex-inmate. As we previously reported, she’s launched a fashion PR agency, the Outlaw Agency, with veteran fashion flack Kelly Cutrone and is also prepping for her first fashion week as a (somewhat) independent woman.
This is not her first experience with TV stardom. The Netflix show “Inventing Anna” was based on her life. She is also working on her own reality show “Delvey’s Dinner Club.”
A rep for “DWTS” said it does not comment on casting “rumors.”
