Anna Delvey is yet to be set free, but she is far from laying low. The famed SoHo scammer is back to her entrepreneurial ways, expertly leveraging her situation to get some more screen time. Her newest escapade sees a reality show on the horizon, titled Delvey's Dinner Club. This is not the first power move Delvey has pulled off. From convincing New York's elite that she's a German heiress, scoring a lucrative Netflix deal and hosting an art show from behind bars. One thing's for sure: the woman knows how to make the best of a bad situation.
"There’s nothing like the experience of bringing together a curated group of friends to share life stories and enjoy a great culinary experience," Delvey says. "I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with Wheelhouse and Butternut to bring my vision to a wider audience and share a glimpse of the real Anna Delvey."
Delevy's dream guests include Madonna, Elon Musk, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas and FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried. (That last one is a reach considering he's also under house arrest awaiting trial on fraud charges.)
What does Delvey's Dinner Club have in store for us?
Having been released from ICE custody as recently as October 2022, Delvey hasn't wasted time planning her next move. She has somehow managed to tee up a new deal for an unscripted reality TV series, Delvey's Dinner Club. The show plans to film the faux socialite as she hosts dinner parties at her East Village apartment. Delvey prepares to play by the rules this time. The show will stay fully compliant with her court-ordered house arrest. The premise of the show centres around Delvey sharing con artist tales with her celebrity friends, in a bid to rebuild her image.
“She’ll do it through what’s already become one of the hottest tables in town — invitation-only, intimate dinners at her home,” former Food Network president Courtney White said in a press release. “There, a Delvey-invited group of actors, musicians, founders, socialites, journalists and other esteemed guests will join her each week around a private-chef catered table replete with candid conversations where no topic is off-limits.”
Delvey's Dinner Club will be produced by Butternut which is an offshoot of the Jimmy-Kimmel co-founded wheelhouse entertainment. There has been no release date for the show yet.
