Despite a turbulent awards season marred by a social media scandal, Karla Sofia Gascon was unfazed by the jokes thrown at her expense by host Conan O'Brien.

AceShowbiz - Karla Sofia Gascon broke her silence after being roasted by Conan O'Brien during his opening monologue at the 2025 Oscars. The 52-year-old actress who has faced backlash for offensive tweets had a notable, if somewhat awkward, presence at the event.

O'Brien's joke about Gascon's controversial tweets was a highlight of the evening. He quipped, "Anora uses the F word 479 times. That's three more than the record set by Karla Sofía Gascón's publicist." He added, "Karla, if you are gonna tweet about the Oscars, my name is Jimmy Kimmel."

Gascón took to Instagram on Monday to share her thoughts on the night, seemingly taking O'Brien's joke in stride while referring to him humorously as Kimmel in her post.

"Thanks to the members of @theacademy for the nomination for best leading actress, for the invitation to the gala; I really enjoyed it, very amiable and funny, especially your fabulous host Jimmy Kimmel, he is fantastic, every day he looks more like the great Conan O'Brien," she wrote. She ended the sentence with a kiss emoji, indicating no hard feelings.

The actress has been at the center of a social media storm following the resurfacing of old tweets in which she made derogatory comments about Black and Asian people as well as diversity at the Oscars.

She reportedly brought her own security at the Academy Awards while dodging the media and journalists, seemingly avoiding being grilled about her scandal. The night concluded with her movie "Emilia Perez" winning two awards out of its 13 nominations - Best Supporting Actress for Zoe Saldana and Best Song.

On her Instagram post, Gascon expressed gratitude to her colleagues and the Academy. "Loved hugging so many friends and colleagues on this homecoming. Congratulations to all the winners, especially to @camilleofficiel @zoesaldana @clementducol. Thank you #jacquesaudiard @netflix @whynotproductions_officiel." She finished by thanking "Emilia Perez" for the learning experience.
