Oscar nominee Karla Sofía Gascón allegedly shaded her “Emilia Pérez” co-star Selena Gomez in a since-deleted tweet.

In the 2022 post, shared via X (formerly Twitter), the 52-year-old actress commented on Gomez’s rumored feud with ex Justin Bieber’s wife, Hailey Bieber, according to the Latin Times.

While sharing a photo of Gomez and Hailey reuniting at the Annual Academy Museum Gala in October 2022, Gascón reportedly wrote, “She’s a rich rat who plays the poor bitch whenever she can and will never stop bothering her ex-boyfriend and his wife.”

Gascón and Gomez’s reps did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

This resurfaced post comes after the actress’ past social media activity started circulating online in late January.

In some of the posts, spanning from May 2016 to April 2023, Gascón denigrated Islam and criticized George Floyd, who was killed by a white Minneapolis police officer in 2020.

Gascón, who made history as the first transgender performer to be nominated for the Oscar for best actress, has since deactivated her X account and apologized for the resurfaced posts.

“I want to acknowledge the conversation around my past social media posts that have caused hurt,” she told Page Six in a statement via her rep.

“As someone in a marginalized community, I know this suffering all too well and I am deeply sorry to those I have caused pain.”

“All my life I have fought for a better world. I believe light will always triumph over darkness,” she concluded.

While Gascón has not yet publicly apologized to Gomez, she seemingly referred to the alleged post about the “Only Murders in the Building” star via Instagram on Saturday.

The actress appeared to address those criticizing her for the “rich rat” jab, writing, “They have created posts as if it were me insulting even my colleagues.”

“Things that I wrote to glorify as if they were criticisms, jokes as if they were reality, words that without the background only seem like hate. Everything as long as I don’t win anything and I sink.”

She also wrote about seeking forgiveness.

In their movie, “Emilia Pérez,” Gascón plays a Mexican cartel leader who transitions into a woman after faking their own death. Years later, Emilia reconnects with the lawyer who helped with her transition (Zoe Saldaña) in an effort to reunite with her wife (Gomez) and their children.
