The controversy swirling around 'Emilia Perez' star Karla Sofia Gascon has been branded "a bummer" by a representative for Netflix.
The streaming giant's film landed a massive 13 Academy Award nominations - including a Best Actress nod for Gascon making her the first trans person to be nominated for an Oscar - but the achievements have been overshadowed by scandal as a series of inflammatory tweets previously posted by Gascon came to light and now Netflix's Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria has weighed in on the drama.
