Headline: Karla Sofía Gascón responds to Conan O'Brien's Oscars joke

Caption: The Spanish star, who was nominated for Best Actress for Emilia Pérez, fell from grace when past tweets which were deemed racist and Islamophobic resurfaced online. She stepped out of the limelight following the scandal but made her comeback at the Oscars on Sunday. During O'Brien's opening monologue, the comedian poked fun at the controversy, joking, "Little fact for you: Anora uses the F-word 479 times. That's three more than the record set by Karla Sofía Gascón's publicist... Karla, if you're going to tweet about the Oscars, remember, my name is Jimmy Kimmel.".
