Karla Sofía Gascón, the Oscar-nominated star in “Emilia Perez,” published a long apology Saturday for year old tweets Bashing Islam and other controversial feelings that appear by an online journalist and said “I have a lot to learn in this the world. ”
“The first thing I would like to do is offer my sincere apology to anyone who may have felt hurt by the way I have expressed myself at any time in my life,” Gascón wrote in Spanish. “I have a lot to learn in this world; My biggest deficiency is in my way of expressing. Life has taught me something I never wanted to learn: no matter how clear your message can be, if you do not use the right word, it can turn into something completely different. “
Journalist Sarah Hagi revealed a series of tweets Last week from Gascón where she criticized the reaction to the 2020 murder at George Floyd and supported prohibited religions that “go towards European values.” Tweets seem to be several years old and translated from Spanish.
“I have gone from living a normal life to a life at the top of my profession of just six months, now my responsibility is very great because my voice is not only belonging to me but too many people who feel represented and hopeful by me , “Gascón continued.
She said she has changed since she started practicing the Nichir -Buddhism and is “not the same person”: “Although I have not committed any crimes I was not even perfect either. I am just trying to learn and become A better person every day, ”she wrote.
Gascón is nominated for an Oscar award for best actress, making her the first open transgender who gets an actor.
