Ezra Sosa Reacts To Anna Delvey's 'Dancing With The Stars'Exit

After her elimination alongside Tori Spelling on the September 24 episode of "Dancing With the Stars," Anna Delvey shared her brutally honest take on the experience.

When host Julianne Hough asked the 33-year-old what she would be taking away from her time on the show, Anna candidly responded, "Nothing."

Her dance partner, Ezra Sosa, who had guided her through the evening's performance of "Suddenly I See" by KT Tunstall from the Oscar-nominated film "The Devil Wears Prada," seemed taken aback by her response, while Julianne let out a quick laugh before wrapping up the segment.

Now, Ezra Sosa is speaking out on that moment with Anna Delvey.

On the September 24 episode of "Dancing With the Stars," the 33-year-old convicted con artist Anna Delvey was sent home.

When host Julianne Hough inquired about what she would take away from her time on the show, Anna candidly replied, “Nothing.”

Her professional partner, Ezra Sosa, appeared surprised by her forthright response, raising his eyebrows in disbelief. Meanwhile, Julianne chuckled and quickly moved on to wrap up the episode.

In an interview with Extra, Ezra was asked about that "iconic" moment, to which he revealed he "knew she was going to say something very iconic and something very Anna Delvey with her exit."

"Of course, she has to. It's very typical. We would expect nothing less," he added.

After the elimination, Ezra said Anna just "kept on apologizing," and she "felt super sorry that [his] first season was cut short."

Since the announcement of Anna Delvey's participation in the show—after her 2019 conviction for grand larceny and theft of services stemming from her schemes to defraud wealthy individuals and businesses—fans and celebrities, including "Dancing With the Stars" judge Derek Hough, have been eager to see what she would deliver on the dance floor.

"If I'm honest with you, even after last night, I was like, 'I don't quite understand you yet,'" he recently told E! News about Anna's first dance, "but I want to know more."

"That's what I love about the show, is that it gives you a little bit of everything," he added. "It gives you that curiosity. There's something in the show for everybody. So there might be somebody out there that wants that."

Former "Dancing With the Stars" pro Maks Chmerkovskiy recently appeared on TMZ's podcast to share his thoughts on Anna Delvey.

“I can see both sides. I can also be on the production side, and I can be on the viewer side and understand it all,” he said. “But if you want an ankle [bracelet] and sort of this, ‘Damn, this is going to draw attention,’ and the scandalousness of it all – I mean, there are so many other people you can choose from.”

The former pro called Anna “a professional liar” before slamming her dance performance. “She wasn’t great,” he said, referring to her cha-cha dance.

“Hold on a second — didn’t she con people into believing she was, like, fully fashion this and special like that? And that takes a lot of guts,” he continued. “It takes a lot of self-control to present yourself a certain way, even if you’re so nervous. I don’t buy this ‘she was nervous’ stuff. She’s a sh-tty dancer, and [her] personality is not really going to help her in this competition.”

After the live show of "Dancing With the Stars" on Tuesday, September 24, Val Chmerkovskiy spoke with Us Weekly regarding his brother's recent remarks.

“He has his opinion,” Val said of his brother. “Whether I share his opinion or not, that’s not my quote, and that’s not my position to talk about it.”

Delvey was eliminated during the second episode of the competition show. “First of all, shout-out to Ezra, her pro, who did an amazing job,” Val said of Delvey's professional dance partner. “I think she worked hard, and she did well — and that’s it.”

Val later acknowledged that Delvey's past has “nothing to do with her presently doing 'Dancing With the Stars,'” but he does “understand where [Maks] is coming from."

"Dancing With the Stars" is broadcast on ABC and Disney+ every Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET.
