The comedian roasted the ‚Emilia Pérez‘ actress during his monologue at the 2025 Academy Award ceremony after her controversial X posts resurfaced in January.
Conan O’Brien did not hold back during his opening monologue at the 2025 Academy Awards roasting a variety of celebrities –– including actress Karla Sofía Gascón.
The 61-year-old comedian served as the host for the highly anticipated award show, which took place on Sunday, March 2, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. After controversial X posts by Gascón — who plays the leading role in the 13-time Oscar-nominated movie musical Emilia Pérez — resurfaced, fans wondered how the Oscars would handle the drama.
The former late-night show host poked fun at Gascón, who was sitting in the audience during his opening monologue.
