LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Dancing with the Stars' Anna Delvey's ballroom debut faced brutal backlash from the viewers which also led to her elimination. The convicted con artist was disappointed with the online hate comments but notably received support from Julia Fox. Just before Anna's Oscars Night performance, Julia sent a video to Anna slamming the hate comment.

She insisted that Anna was young when she committed the crime but now it's her time to shine. The actress further claimed that she was disappointed to see "the people being so nasty because if it were their sister or their mother they'd be all for a second chance." Anna has already served her sentence for her past misdeeds and deserves a fresh start to embrace a life of freedom.

However, the ABC show has provided a huge platform to Anna, putting her in the center of the spotlight all over again, and bringing Julia on the ABC show was her biggest gameplay. The 'DWTS' show gig has only glorified her crime even more and her deserving elimination came at the perfect time. Anna has been trying to win over the viewers with her sob story but the audience has shown that they are more clever than the con artist.
