The Oscars 2025 are set against a backdrop of controversy involving Karla Sofía Gascón, who has made history as the first transgender performer nominated for a Best Actress award. Despite her lead role in 'Emilia Pérez,' Gascón's past offensive tweets and a subsequent removal from promotional material by Netflix raised questions about her participation. However, reports confirm she will attend the ceremony, with Netflix covering her expenses, leading to statements from the Academy expressing hopes for a respectful presence from Gascón.
The Academy does not condone hate speech - I want to be very clear about that. Karla's nomination is historic. That's really important.
