Karla Sofía Gascón is expressing her remorse.

The Emilia Pérez star apologized for past offensive posts she made on X, formerly known as Twitter, that appeared to target Muslims, the killing of George Floyd and diversity at the Oscars that recently resurfaced. 

“I want to acknowledge the conversation around my past social media posts that have caused hurt,” Gasón shared in a statement to NBC News via a Netflix spokesperson Jan. 30. “As someone in a marginalized community, I know this suffering all too well and I am deeply sorry to those I have caused pain. All my life I have fought for a better world. I believe light will always triumph over darkness.” 

Among the now-deleted tweets, which have been circulating social media and were not independently verified by E! News, she slammed the 2021 Academy Awards. 

The actress—who became the first openly trans actor to be nominated for an Oscar at this year’s show—called it an “ugly gala” that she described as an “Afro-Korean festival” for its diverse winners in the tweets that were translated from Spanish to English, per Variety. She also described Islam as “deeply disgusting” and George Floyd as a “drug addict swindler.”

Emilia Pérez’s Karla Sofía Gascón Denies Breaking Oscars Rule With Controversial Fernanda Torres Comment

Gascón’s resurfaced social media posts rattled online fans, with one person pointing out on social media that the 52-year-old is “the star of a movie that is campaigning on its progressive values. You really gotta laugh.”

E! News has reached out to Gascón’s reps for comment and has not heard back.

But this isn’t the only controversy Gascón has been involved in. Her apology comes one day after she denied speaking poorly of fellow Oscar nominee Fernanda Torres, which violates Academy Awards policy. During a Spanish interview with Brazilian newspaper Folha de S. Paulo, the former alleged that there had been an online campaign to “discredit” her team’s work.

"You don’t need to tear down someone’s work to highlight another’s," Gascón said in Spanish during the Jan. 28 conversation. "You will never see me talking negatively about Fernanda Torres or her film, but on the contrary, I do see many people working around Fernanda Torres who talk badly about me, and Emilia Pérez. I think that speaks more about them and their film than of me.” 

Following the interview, however, she clarified her comments. 

"I am an enormous fan of Fernanda Torres and it has been wonderful getting to know her the past few months," she said in a Jan. 29 statement to Deadline. "In my recent comments, I was referencing the toxicity and violent hate speech on social media that I sadly continue to experience.”
