"Grateful for all my amazing supporters who are smart enough to recognize and appreciate humor," Anna, 33, captioned a selfie via Instagram Stories on Thursday.

"Obsessed with all your DMs and posts," she added. "Love and thanks for NOTHING!"

Anna's mention of the word "nothing" was a cheeky nod to her final words on Dancing with the Stars' 33rd season.

After the convicted felon and her professional partner Ezra Sosa, 23, were eliminated at the end of Tuesday night's show, Dancing with the Stars co-host Julianne Hough asked Anna to share what she was going to take away from her experience.

Anna -- who had received one of the lowest judges' scores of the evening, 17 out of 30 possible points -- simply replied, "Nothing," as Ezra, who was standing by Anna's side, flashed a look of surprise on his face and shook his head.

"There you have it! Absolutely nothing," Julianne said with a laugh, before host Alfonso Ribeiro quipped, "You had fun, stop it. Stop it!"

Reality TV star Tori Spelling and her pro partner Pasha Pashkov were also ousted from Dancing with the Stars in a special double-elimination episode, but when Tori was asked to describe her time on the show, she gushed about how it was "unbelievable."

Anna's shocking "nothing" comment went viral, and she's been sharing some of the memes she inspired via Instagram Stories.

And shortly after Anna's departure from Dancing with the Stars, Anna appeared to stand by her cutting comment when she reposted praise from her friend and publicist Kelly Cutrone on Instagram.

"Loving the real of @theannadelvey. I could give 2 fks flex," Kelly wrote on Wednesday, September 25.

Dancing with the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba slammed Anna's remark in an interview with Entertainment Weekly on Wednesday.

"That was dismissive not only of the opportunity she was given, of her wonderful and supportive partner Ezra in his debut season, but also of all of us who work on the show -- from the dancers to behind the scenes to the creative team," Carrie Ann said.

The judge continued to vent, "We all put in the effort to give her a fair opportunity. But I don't think she could see that and it's a shame. A little gratitude could have changed the narrative.

Ezra, for his part, took to Instagram Stories that same day and defended Anna.

Ezra wrote of Anna's "nothing" comment: "I think she was referring to taking anything away 'physically.'"

But earlier this week, Ezra had suggested that Anna was taking a shot at Dancing with the Stars and didn't really care how her remark would be perceived by the public.

"I knew she was going to say something very iconic and something very Anna Delvey with her exit," Ezra told Extra on Tuesday, September 24.

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

But Ezra revealed that Anna was actually very kind and gracious to him behind the scenes.

In fact, Anna allegedly felt guilty about Ezra's early ouster from his debut Dancing with the Stars season.

"She honestly kept on apologizing to me," Ezra shared, adding how he wishes they could've stayed longer in the competition.

"She felt super sorry that my first season was cut short... I really wanted to give her a chance to really grow on camera and let America really see who she really is."

The pro dancer and choreographer insisted that Anna is actually "incredibly sweet" and so she's "misunderstood" in the eyes of Dancing with the Stars viewers.

"I really tried my best to see her for the person she is outside the persona," Ezra added.

But Anna has faced a lot of backlash and criticism for appearing on Dancing with the Stars after spending time in jail.

Former Dancing with the Stars pro and guest judge Maksim Chmerkovskiy even called Anna "a professional liar" and a flat out "sh-tty dancer" who doesn't really deserve anyone's respect during a Monday, September 23 appearance on the "TMZ Podcast."

"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, man, there's so many other people you can choose from," Maksim complained.

Maksim confessed he was "absolutely not" a fan of Anna and he couldn't believe a word that she said.

Maksim went on to critique Anna's first cha cha performance with Ezra for which she had bedazzled her ankle monitor.

"She wasn't great. She was very kind of standoffish in a lot of things," Maksim explained.

"You can blame the nerves and say, 'Hey, everybody's human and this person is not used to that stage.' Bullsh-t. Hold on a second -- didn't she con people into believing she was, like, fully fashion this and special like that?"

Maksim said fooling the world "takes a lot of guts" and so he wasn't buying that Anna was "nervous" to be on TV either.

"She's just a sh-tty dancer, and her personality is not really going to help her in this competition," Maksim said.

When asked to share how many weeks he thought Anna would remain in the Dancing with the Stars competition, Maksim responded, "I don't care... She's not somebody I'd tune in to watch. I feel for [Ezra], he's got an uphill climb -- just even the dancing part of it."

Maksim concluded, "You're going to have to do a lot more to win somebody like me over after everything that you were accused of. But now you get to [serve] your time by bedazzling your ankle brace and being on national TV? I'm not about that."

On Dancing with the Stars' latest broadcast, Anna and Ezra only received 17 points for their quickstep performance to "Suddenly I See" by KT Tunstall from Carrie Ann, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli.

On Dancing with the Stars' premiere, Anna had chosen "Espresso" by Sabrina Carpenter as her anthem. She and Ezra ended up in a three-way tie for eighth place on the judges' leaderboard after receiving a total of 18 out 30 possible judges' points.

Following their performance, Carrie Ann asked viewers to give Anna a chance because she could tell the studio audience wasn't very supportive or receptive of her.

Anna was arrested in 2017 and indicted on multiple counts of grand larceny and misdemeanor theft.

Anna was released from prison on parole in 2021. Her story about fraudulently posing as a wealthy German heiress was developed into the 2022 miniseries Inventing Anna on Netflix.
