Look at me, I am Anna,” shouted drag queen Yuhua Hamasaki as she riled up the crowd in full Anna Delvey garb at the imprisoned fake heiress’ one-night-only solo art exhibit.

Before the work was actually shown, guests at the exclusive event were treated to cocktails, like the “Anna on ICE,” and a recorded message from Delvey played by the DJ.

Your call was not accepted.
Please try again later.”“What!” the crowd shouted, before Delvey’s voice came through loud and clear: “Hi everyone, Anna Delvey, here. I hope you guys are enjoying your evening so far. I’m so very excited to unveil my first-ever art collection, titled ‘Allegedly.’ This is a collection of sketches I’ve created while in Orange County Detention.
