Anna Sorokin BioSnap a weekly updated Biography. Anna Sorokin, infamous for her "Anna Delvey" persona and whose story inspired the Netflix hit Inventing Anna, has made major headlines in just the past few days. According to Page Six and Telegrafi, a New York court has finally granted her permission to return to social media, ending a long-standing mandate that kept her offline since her 2022 release from house arrest. Sorokin herself announced she would be back posting as Anna Delvey starting Friday evening, and her return has already sparked a frenzy on Instagram, not least because of her taste for provocative self-presentation and her unique brand of social commentary. But Sorokin’s comeback is bigger than just social media. ABC officially announced her as a contestant on the 33rd season of Dancing With the Stars, marking the first time the competition will feature someone dancing with an ankle monitor still strapped on. Her inclusion, with pro dancer Ezra Sosa as her partner, drew both snark and support across social channels, where posts like "Why are we having a convicted felon on a TV show?" trended briefly on Instagram. In media appearances, Sorokin explained she needed special approval from ICE to film in Los Angeles—permission that only came a week before the cast reveal. Never one to miss an opportunity, she also teased major plans for New York Fashion Week, including both producing and walking in a show for designer SHAO with her dance partner along for the ride, and claimed she is coproducing up to five events with fashion power player Kelly Cutrone. On the business and art side, Sorokin sat down with Us Weekly at the UPRISE 2025: The Art of Resistance event to confirm she’s finally scored her own Manhattan apartment after months living upstate, and that she’s already working on a new art collection—her first since producing sold-out sketches while under ICE house arrest. She says she’s channeling the freedom after house arrest into new pieces and possibly her own fashion label, hinting at longer-term ambitions in art and style. Sources like The New York Times have noted how Sorokin’s brief but viral Dancing With the Stars stint brought a new, younger audience to the franchise, and Variety reports the show drew record ratings for its current season. Sorokin’s deportation case is still pending, according to AOL and Us Weekly, meaning her U.S. residency hangs in the balance and any business move or media deal—like her rumored collaborations with fashion labels or further TV appearances—could be disrupted at any moment. There was a minor kerfuffle in animal news tabloid cycles over accusations she was tied to an influencer scandal involving luxury bunnies; Sorokin herself took to Instagram to deny all involvement. All told, Anna Sorokin is playing the pop culture long game, using every headline and hashtag as another step in the transformation from disgraced fraudster to fully-fledged, if still polarizing, media brand.
