The 2025 Oscars celebrated a monologue by Conan O'Brien who took shots at actress Karla Sofía Gascón while mentioning previous socially controversial posts she had made. Anora says the F-word 479 times throughout a speech. The number of F-word uses amounted to three above Karla Sofía Gascón's former publicist's record which caused amusement among viewers. Jimmy Kimmel warned his next statement would become a commonly remembered quote for Twitter announcements during Oscar broadcasts.
During the ceremony the actress Gascón appeared to avoid the red carpet events while dealing with ongoing controversy. The day after O'Brien's monologue Gascón posted a jovial response on Instagram which recounted her entertainment and appreciation especially when O'Brien resembled Kimmel.
Gascón used the opportunity to use friendly humor which transformed the joke against O'Brien into a mix-up between their names with fellow comedian Jimmy Kimmel. Even under intense public examination Gascón displayed her character traits of strength and intelligence.
The post-ceremony conversation between O'Brien and Gascón became a popular point of discussion because it showcased the natural interactions people have at live events between personable individuals. Gascón demonstrates graceful behavior by convincingly demonstrating the need for composure during stressful moments and the potential of laughter to prevent tense situations from escalating.
