She replied: “It is that if I speak her mouth … she joined the hunger with the desire to eat. We were doing very well, we made a wonderful movie with incredible interpretations. And there were people who wanted to harm me. To me that they have branded me as a person of a homophobic and racist person, it is absurd ».
Karla Sofía Gascón and Pablo Motos.«I have fought against the extreme right, against the extreme left, against fanatisms and those that add the homosexuals and trans people. I have seen how serious media have taken messages of accounts that were parodic. We have a serious problem with social networks. It is a constant machaque. Social networks are a lie. They tell us what we have to say ».
“I recognize that I am quite gross when talking, you know it well,” the actress told Pablo Motos, who recalled that, on her first visit, she did not know how to react for her behavior.
«I apologize for my ways to express myself but nobody is going to call me racist for some tweets I published with some attacks. I have no problems with anyone, “said Gascón in addition to adding that:” I don’t lack work, my talent as an actress or writer has nothing to do.

The problem is that they did not let me fight ».
«Why are there governments that encourage transphobia? Why are there people who have to suffer just because they exist? I have ended up understanding everyone (when Netflix and the film director turned their backs) ». Karla Sofia said.
“I entered where the most cool people enter, for the kitchen!” Gascón replied when asked why he did not cross the red carpet of the last awards ceremony of the Hollywood Academy. «I greeted everyone and then went to Madonna’s party. All industry professionals have treated me phenomenal ».
And despite the fact that on his last visit a certain tension was noticed, Karla Sofía declared that: “Pablo Motos is a professional like the cup of a pine and would already like, all those who criticize him, have been presenting a program for 19 years.”

I’m up to everyone. As I am up to everyone, you have to emphasize it.
