Karla Sofía Gascón to Miss BAFTAs Amid Backlash
Karla Sofía Gascón, the first openly trans actress nominated for a BAFTA, is set to miss the BAFTA Film Awards due to backlash over her past offensive social media posts, which surfaced two weeks ago and include racist, homophobic, and body-shaming remarks. These controversies have led to her absence from major events like the Critics Choice Awards and the Goya Awards. Gascón issued an apology and expressed her desire for her work to speak for itself, while Netflix has distanced itself by removing her from their awards campaign. Despite her absence, her 'Emilia Pérez' co-stars, Zoe Saldaña and Selena Gomez, will attend and present at the BAFTAs, highlighting the film's significant presence with 11 nominations. The BAFTAs will also feature numerous celebrities, including Mark Hamill and Lupita Nyong’o as presenters, and performances from artists like Take That and Jeff Goldblum.
