Emilia Pérez’s Karla Sofía Gascón acknowledges and apologizes for the distress caused by her past tweets that have recently resurfaced. In a statement shared with Vulture, Gascón expresses remorse for any harm she may have inflicted, especially as someone who identifies with a marginalized community. She emphasizes that she understands the pain such actions can cause and sincerely apologizes to those affected. Throughout her life, she has been an advocate for a more equitable world and believes that light will eventually overcome darkness. Today, several Islamophobic posts by the Oscar nominee were re-shared online, including a 2020 tweet written in Spanish, where she sarcastically praised Islam as a “marvelous” religion without sexism while sharing a photo of a family with a woman wearing a burka. She further commented that when they respect women, they leave a small opening for their eyes and mouth, but only if the woman behaves well.
As a passionate cinephile looking back on the past year or so, I can’t help but notice the unwavering stance of Gascón when it comes to voicing his opinions. From 2020 to 2021, he fearlessly tackled a myriad of contentious issues without holding back.
One of the topics that particularly caught my attention was the Oscars in 2021. In one of his tweets, Gascón expressed his thoughts by saying, “The #Oscars are starting to resemble a ceremony for independent and protest films; I wasn’t sure if I was watching an Afro-Korean festival, a Black Lives Matter rally, or the 8M.” He further added, “Apart from that, it was an ugly, ugly gala.”
Another topic that sparked his interest was the tragic death of George Floyd. In a series of tweets, Gascón wrote, “I truly believe that not many people genuinely cared about George Floyd, a drug addict and swindler, but his demise has served as a stark reminder that there are still those who view black people as nothing more than monkeys, devoid of rights. This misconception is prevalent among some who see police officers as assassins. They are all mistaken.
