The Hollywood Reporter previously reported that the embattled best actress Oscar nominee will no longer be flying to L.A. for any of the film's awards activities this week.

Karla Sofía Gascón is a Spanish actress. She became the first transgender star to win the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress. She also became the first openly transgender actress to be nominated by the Academy for Best Actress. Gascón was born in Alcobendas, Spain, and decided to pursue an acting career at 16 years old.

Oscar-nominated ‘Emilia Pérez’ star Karla Sofía Gascón wants to "let the work talk for itself," she said in an Instagram post offering an apology "to everyone who has been hurt" by the controversies surrounding her resurfaced words on social media.
