Anna Sorokin, the convicted con artist known as the 'fake heiress,' made her debut on 'Dancing With the Stars' while wearing a sparkly ankle monitor, a reminder of her criminal past. During the premiere, she performed a dance routine with pro Ezra Sosa to Sabrina Carpenter's 'Espresso,' describing the ankle monitor as 'not a big issue at all.' Sorokin expressed relief after her performance and hopes viewers will give her a second chance despite her history, stating, 'I served my time and I repaid my restitution.' While she has transitioned to home confinement after being released from prison, early reviews of her performance were not favorable, trending phrases like 'Anna Delvey’s Lackluster DWTS Debut' on social media. Sorokin has previously attempted to rebrand herself through a podcast and now seeks to redefine her image through television appearances.
