Clad in a glittery ankle monitor, Anna Sorokin's debut on the 'Dancing With The Stars' has been nothing short of a spectacle.
Anna Sorokin, also known as Anna Delvey, is back in the spotlight, this time for a surprising reason. The Russian-born con artist, whose elaborate scams once shocked the world, is now making headlines for her participation in a reality programme, Dancing With The Stars. Clad in a glittery ankle monitor, Sorokin's debut on the show has been nothing short of a spectacle.
Anna Sorokin, 33, rose to infamy for masquerading as a wealthy German heiress named Anna Delvey. At her 2019 trial, Sorokin was convicted of defrauding hotels, banks, and other institutions of over $200,000 (around Rs 1.67 crore). She also extracted additional funds from associates and friends whom she deceived on various pretexts.
Sorokin's high-profile fraud led to many media stories and public fascination, culminating in the 2022 Netflix series 'Inventing Anna'.
