Karla Sofía Gascón affirms the viral tweet in which she seemed to call her the co-star of “Emilia Pérez” Selena Gomez, a “rich rat”, is completely manufactured.
“Of course, it is not mine,” said Gascón during an interview on Saturday evening with CNN in Español. “I never said anything about my partner. I would never approach it this way.
VarietThere was learned that the interview with CNN was created by Gascón and not by Netflix, the distributor of “Emilia Pérez”.
Gascón was criticized last week after a series of controversial tweets on subjects such as George Floyd, the diversity of Oscars and Muslims was rediscovered. Among the articles, there was the one in which Gascón apparently said of Gomez: “She is a rich rat who plays the poor bastard whenever she can and will never stop disturbing his ex-friendly friend (Justin Bieber ) and his wife. ” The quotation drew media attention and people, but the nomine to the Oscars now says that the particular tweet was not real.
The day before, Gascón went to Instagram to share a long response concerning the controversy on social networks, making similar affirmations on how his words have been manipulated or left their context.
“They have already won, they achieved their goal, to stain my existence with lies or things out of its context,” she wrote on Saturday morning. “Whoever knows me knows that I am not racist (you will be surprised when you discover that one of the most important people in my current life and that I like the most is Muslim) or any of the things for which I have been tried and condemned without trial and without option to explain the real intention; I have always fought for a fairer society and for a world of freedom, peace and love. I will never support wars, religious extremism or the oppression of races and peoples. »»
