Summary at a Glance

Apologising for the posts, Karla said: "I want to acknowledge the conversation around my past social media posts that have caused hurt.

He later added that he "he would like to thank the wonderful talents", and also named his "dear Zoe [Saldana], and "Selena [Gomez].".

It's expected that the movie will sweep the board at the upcoming Oscars next month but Karla, the first openly trans nominee, made the decision not to attend any events to promote the movie due to the scandal surrounding her.

As the film took home the award for Film Not in the English Language Award, director Jacques Audiard appeared on stage to thank the on-screen talent.

She then swore after saying she was being given a countdown and added: "Films are supposed to change hearts and challenge minds and I hope Emilia Perez did something like this, because voices need to be heard, just not my English accent.".
