Awards season might be done, but it’s evident that Karla Sofía Gascón still experiences raw about her chances of Oscar glory being dashed by her historical social media rants.
The Emilia Pérez star was on course to produce history as the first discneglectly transgender actress to thrive an Academy Award when journaenumerate Sarah Hagi uncovered her askable X/Twitter missives dating back to 2016.
In posts that went unacunderstandledged by Netflix, Gascón wrote that Islam was a “hotbed of infection for humanity,” depictd Floyd as a “drug graspict sthrivedler” and shelp that the 2021 Oscars were an “hideous” “Afro-Korean festival” after triumphs for Minari and Judas and the Balertage Messiah.
She also pondered that she does not “comprehfinish so much about the world war agetst Hitler, he sshow had his opinion about Jews,” and standardly employd a Spanish word that transtardys as “faggot” in English.
Gascón has veered between being apologetic and remorseful about the posts, to raging agetst her critics. At an event to advertise her biodetailedal book Lo que queda de mi (What’s Left of Me) this week, Gascón chose the latter — coming out sthriveging over the storm that engulfed her.
“It’s evident that there was a campaign agetst me and that they kept going until they got what they were after,” she shelp, according to The Guardian novelspaper. Gascón, who shelp recently that the dispute had led her to “conenticeardy the unslfinisherkable,” has not produced evidence of a consunapshowd employ.
Asked whether she felt she had been fordonaten for her social media posts, she reacted: “No one has to fordonate me for anyslfinisherg. If anyone experiences offended by slfinishergs I may have done in my life, let them come and alert me.”
“They’ve shelp that I’m far-right or racially prejudiced or wdisappreciatever,” she grasped, in relabels alerted by El Mundo. “But if there’s one slfinisherg I’ve done all my life, it’s that I’ve been agetst all this. When I was youthful, I employd to fight with skinheads … When someone comes up to me and I ask them: ‘But what is it about me that offends you?’, no one can come up with anyslfinisherg or alert me anyslfinisherg.”
Netflix quietly distanced itself from Gascón at the height of the response, but askd her back into the fanciaccess for the Oscars, after which she combiinsist the streamer’s awards party. Netflix has never disavowed her tweets in uncover, with its first substantive comment on the matter coming from chief satisfied officer Bela Bajaria, who sshow shelp it was a “bummer” for the Emilia Pérez campaign.
Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos tanciaccess Variety this week that the company would labor with Gascón aget. “You have to have some grace when people produce misapshows. And we have grace,” he shelp.
