Surprisingly, Delvey remarked that she took away 'nothing' from her experience on the show, a statement that caught both her partner Ezra Sosa and host Julianne Hough off guard.

Despite her past, Delvey trained rigorously with partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy, dedicating at least four hours a day to practice.

Her quickstep performance earned a score of 17 out of 30, with judges encouraging her to embrace the competition more fully.

The season premiere garnered more votes than the previous season's debut, indicating strong viewer engagement.

Season 33 of 'Dancing With the Stars' airs on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC, featuring a mix of celebrity contestants.

In a dramatic double elimination, Tori Spelling and Anna Delvey were sent home from the competition.

Anna Delvey, known for her past as a convicted con artist, participated in the season but faced criticism for her lack of emotional expression during performances.

Judge Burke noted that Delvey's emotional detachment negatively impacted viewer perception, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in the competition.

Sosa humorously referred to Delvey's ankle monitor as 'the real star of the show,' highlighting the unique challenges of her participation.

Delvey even customized her ankle monitor to fit her costume, showcasing her unique approach to the competition.

Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong topped the leaderboard with a rumba performance, scoring 24 out of 30, while Reginald VelJohnson and Emma were at the bottom with a score of 6.

Delvey's casting has sparked debate about the glorification of her criminal past, but judge Carrie Ann Inaba urged viewers to focus on the performances rather than contestants' histories.
