When Anna Delvey and Tori Spelling took the stage at the “DWTS” finale, fans lit up the internet with opinions, ranging from applause to outrage.

Anna Delvey made a dramatic return to the stage during the “Dancing with the Stars” Season 33 finale, despite being the first contestant eliminated. The 33-year-old, known for her controversial past, joined her dance partner Ezra Sosa for the November, 26 event.

The duo performed alongside Tori Spelling and Pasha Pashkov to Whitney Houston’s classic “I Have Nothing,” in what seemed like a nod to Delvey’s own parting words when she said she was taking nothing away from the show.

Making an entrance, Delvey was carried onto the stage, lip-syncing to the ballad before their routine came to an abrupt end. The performance sparked mixed reactions among viewers, with Delvey attracting significant criticism.

One user on X wrote, “They did so good. I wish they would not have let the jailbird back, but I feel bad for Tori Spelling. She should have had a moment on her own without the other one.” Another shared, “Ughh, nothing didn’t deserve to be there. Tori looked great.” Some viewers took issue with the dynamics between Delvey and the rest of the cast.

“Why did they even bring that girl back with her nasty attitude?!?! [sic] Obviously Julianne doesn’t like her cause why did Ezra switch places with Anna!!! And you can tell by Julianne’s facial expression she wasn’t playing! 😂😂😂,” wrote one commenter.

Another added, “Did we really need to bring Anna back tho [sic]? She makes everything awkward with her bad attitude and psycho personality 🙄.” The chatter didn’t stop there, as more viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on Delvey’s unexpected return.

“She just needs to go,” one person bluntly wrote, while another echoed, “Yep, still can’t understand what anyone sees in Anna.” Delvey’s earlier elimination comment and her presence in the finale seemed to frustrate many. “I believe Anna should have NEVER been a contestant!” declared one viewer.
