The actress made history on Thursday for being the first openly transgender performer to be nominated for an Oscar. She was nominated for her role in Emilia Pérez, where she plays Mexican cartel leader who transitions and dedicates herself to aiding the victims of gang violence. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about President Trump's new anti-trans decree, she told how "he is shameless. "We are going backwards. The new generations have not experienced what the previous ones have experienced, so they are destined to repeat the same mistakes. Be careful with giving power to the intolerant, because it will end the little tolerance we have."
