Anna ‘Delvey’ Sorokin Talks About House Arrest And Her New Dinner Party Series | Forbes

In an exclusive interview with Forbes, the fake German heiress known as Anna Delvey discusses her lucrative art career and her new reality series.

Anna Sorokin, the fake German heiress known as Anna Delvey who was convicted of fraud and was accused of scamming her way through elite New York City circles, will be the subject of a new reality show, which will be filmed while she’s on house arrest as her immigration case plays out.

Called Delvey’s Dinner Club, the series will film inside Sorokin’s East Village apartment—where she has been living since October, when she was released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody in New York— according to a press release.

Sorokin will host dinner parties at her home, where “actors, musicians, founders, socialites, journalists and other esteemed guests” will eat around “a private-chef catered table” for “candid conversations where no topic is off-limits,” and will also feature interviews with Sorokin and her guests.

Forbes covers the intersection of entrepreneurship, wealth, technology, business and lifestyle with a focus on people and success.

[VolcomX]

She actually sounds like she did when she first got to NY. Very optimistic and busy. Prison didn’t shrink her at all.

[msm]

She’s loving this 😅 the way she talks, the way she looks… If being delulu is the solulu was a person 😂

[dianamurugi]

She has mastered the art of talking but not telling you what she is talking about 😂

[MissPerpul]

She's a perfect example of what society is today and why its a cesspit. Greed, wealth, how we attain that wealth - by stepping on others to get it. Right down to being glorified with airtime on Netflix and on here - Forbes. She got what she wanted.

[coppereos]

I feel like the Netflix series didn't do her justice. Seeing her irl I can see how she scammed people. She's so much more vibrant and enthusiastic than how the show portrayed her. I would have fallen for it too.

[nikolavlok]

Anna is a reflection of our societies values and how the powers that be are structured. Her whole psychology and personality feels like a mirror. I think she is very authentic. She cares about art and wants to pursue her passions. And like most corporate businesses she has stepped over people to do so. Like all the billionaires. Like Jeff, Elon and all those assholes. The only difference is that Anna's crimes are more transparent.

[almirarzehak]

glorifying a criminal ...god job Forbes !

[mojezosiowanie]

She really has the talent to make jail sound like fun.

[jaclynm]

Well, she got exactly what she wanted. She got famous. More famous than if everything had worked out and she hadn’t been caught. It’s disappointing to see, honestly, but it just shows what confidence can do for you, even if you’re living a lie.

[lilo]

Why is Forbes interviewing this kind of people?I thought it had more class.

[smileyourworriesaway]

She’s totally on a different level of a con artist slash scammer. Indeed a very interesting study in the field of neuroscience and psychology as she just lacks human conscience and sense of connection to reality. She’s brutal.

[mooncookier]

I am so fascinated by Anna. The psychology behind her and her thinking patterns

[theskyyisgold]

Forbes giving this woman a platform is embarrassing lmao

[Factacceptancemovement]

She should be deported! It’s not fair when there are so many people who do all the right things, follow the rules, work so damn hard to get US visa and still get rejected!

[g-town]

Why is Forbes glamorising this con artist..?

[h.beauty]

Press needs to stop giving her attention. This is what makes her thrive and succeed regardless. She'll never be remorseful, cause her actions keep being positively fruitful. Narcissistic people live through attention. 🙄

[ShushaSofia]

It’s sad that a person with talent and agility uses these qualities for negative things

[cherylehessel]

WOW!! I wish I could steal million and then be "punished" like this. What a joke. 🤨🙄

[heymysteriousgirl]

she makes prison sound like a reality show or something, i love her so much lol

[helenatube]

I'm not laughing. Everyone keeps cracking jokes and saying she's interesting (she's not, just sounds vapid and pretentious when she speaks) but she really damaged her friends' financial and emotional lives and she's just sitting here basking in the attention like a shameless narcissist. Meanwhile where are the victims' stories? This society is truly sick and in need of help.
