Scammer Anna Sorokin to host reality show

Russian-German scammer Anna Sorokin, who is under house arrest for multiple fraud cases, will star in a reality show from the house where she is serving her sentence. The program will be produced by Butternut.

Sorokin's life story rose to fame after Netflix made the series Inventing Anna, which portrays the years in which the young Russian woman posed as a German heiress under the name of Anna Delvey to swindle banks, hotels and well-known personalities. Now, her true identity will be further exposed as the Russian will host her own TV show.

The reality show, which will be called Delvey's Dinner Club, will feature Sorokin dining and conversing with different figures from music, film, theatre and show business. As reported by People, the program will take place in the East Village apartment in New York where she is serving her sentence.

Arrest and conviction

The host of the new program, who posed as a German millionaire to raise funds to supposedly open a social club, was arrested in 2017. In 2019, she was convicted on charges of grand larceny, second-degree larceny and theft of services.

After serving the minimum sentence of four years in prison, she was released in early 2021. However, a few weeks after her release from prison, she was arrested again for overstaying her visa. Since then, she has been living in the East Village apartment, wearing an electronic anklet and unable to go out.
