Awkward moment DWTS host Julianne Hough throws shade at Anna Delvey over infamous one-word comment

Dancing with The Stars host Julianne Hough threw shade at Anna Delvey during the season 33 finale of the show on Tuesday.

The convicted fraudster, 33, and her ankle monitor returned to the ballroom with partner Ezra Sosa after being the first to be eliminated in the dance competition.

The duo danced alongside Tori Spelling and Pasha Pashkov to Whitney Houston’s hit song ‘I Have Nothing’, a nod to Anna’s departing comment following her elimination when she said she took ‘nothing’ away from her time on the show.

Delvey was carried onto the stage and mouthed the words to the famous song.

After the performance, Julianne made fun of Anna as she looked directly at the camera and said: ‘You know I’ve got nothing.’

Anna offered an awkward smile in response to the jab as her partner wagged her finger teasingly.

The fashionista and entrepreneur, who was convicted of grand theft after posing as an heiress and whose life was portrayed in the Netflix show Inventing Anna, previously went viral for her one-word response to her elimination in September.

She was eliminated from Season 33 during the Oscars Night episode along with Spelling, 51.

“And Anna, what do you want to take away from this competition,” Hough asked Delvey at the time.

“Nothing,” Delvey said with a small laugh.

‘There you have it. Absolutely nothing,” Hough said.

‘You had fun. Stop it. Stop it, said host Alfonso Ribeiro, 53, jokingly.

“Yes, you did,” Hough told her.

Earlier in her elimination episode, Delvey told Sosa that she was ‘happy’ at first after their first dance, but felt ‘crazy’ after reading critical comments about her online.

‘I’m used to people having a negative feeling about me. I get upset for a little while, but then I just move on,’ Delvey said in a confessional.

Delvey received a score of 17 for her Quickstep from the judges, who encouraged her to bring more energy to her dance, which she did again while wearing an ankle bracelet monitor.

Delvey was convicted in 2019 of eight felonies, including grand theft, and was released from prison in 2021.

She has been fighting deportation to Germany, and a judge allowed her to wear an ankle bracelet as a condition of competing on season 33 of DWTS.

Dancing With the Stars wrapped up its 33rd season with a super grand finale that spanned a whopping three hours long.

Fans were shocked last week when none of the top five contestants — Chandler Kinney, Ilona Maher, Danny Amendola, Joey Graziadei and Stephen Nedoroscik — were eliminated.

The finale will also feature special performances from Mark Ballas and Derek Hough, along with the stars’ final performances.

Delvey later spoke with Spelling during an episode of her podcast spelling mistake that she reacted to her elimination that way ‘because it was the truth.’

“You guys told me what to do. I tried to do it and then I was still rejected. And I’m not taking anything away,” Delvey shared.

“That’s what I’m taking away from it because your advice was worthless.”

She then went on to double down: ‘I really didn’t take much from this experience.’

“I think I had to be on the defensive, especially after all the backlash that I got when I was cast on the show, even though the producers (tried) to defend me.”

‘And I think everyone on the cast was generally very nice to me. But in the end I don’t know.’

Sosa ended up calling her response ‘iconic’ and later had it tattooed on her upper back.
