Delvey said in the trailer for her new show, shared on Audio Up’s YouTube channel, “You may recognize my name as a character in a Netflix series… but now you’re meeting the real me.

“On this show, I dive into the concept of rules and talk to the people who create or break them – from art, politics, fashion, technology, finance, law and more.”

She said her show will “challenge traditional notions of what is right and wrong,” all shot from her $4,250-a-month East Village apartment while under house arrest.

Speaking about the decision to launch the show a year after ‘Inventing Anna’ premiered on Netflix in February 2022, she said said“This will be the first time I have my own platform to share my personal take on the public’s fascination with my life story while engaging with guests from a variety of industries including business, media, entertainment, arts and more.’

Despite being sentenced to four years in prison in April 2019, she was released on good behavior and given a short period of freedom until she was arrested again for overstaying her visa.

During her house arrest, which requires her to remain in her home and wear an ankle bracelet at all times, Sorokin has been seen posing for photo shoots and speaking to the media at her East Village condo on several occasions.

Upon release, “Inventing Anna” divided audiences, as some believed Delvey’s character turned into a so-called “girlboss” cult figure, while portraying victims as “idiots.”

From the beginning of the series, she is portrayed as an underdog against the snobbish New York elite – with opening scenes in which a victim dismisses the impact of her crimes by asking, “Who else would be interested in lowly Anna Sorokin?”

Delvey, who moved to the US in 2013, would befriend wealthy socialites before swindling them out of thousands of dollars under the promise of transferring money from Germany.
