Selena Gomez respectfully clapped back after Eugenio Derbez criticized her Spanish in her latest film, “Emilia Pérez.” Her reaction came after the “How to Be a Latin Lover” actor appeared in a since-deleted episode of the “Hablando de Cine” podcast and described Gomez’s Spanish-speaking abilities as “indefensible.” “I understand where you are coming from..I’m sorry I did the best I could with the time I was given,” the actress wrote in the comments section of a podcast clip that had been reposted on TikTok.
“Doesn’t take away from how much work and heart I put into this movie.” The Mexico-born actor first shared his opinion on Gomez’s latest project during an interview with “Hablando de Cine” podcast host, Gaby Meza.
“Selena is indefensible,” Derbez, 63, said, according to Variety’s translation of the podcast. “I [watched ‘Emilia Pérez’] with people, and every time she had a scene, we looked at each other to say, ‘Wow, what is this?'”

It’s all Greek to me.

“That was salacious, lascivious, outrageous and quite possibly contagious.”

What is the problem? I read the article and it didn’t say what they were critical of. Pronunciation? Accent? Bad acting?.........................
Sounds delicious.....................
I remember racist Americans destroying Arnold Schwarzenegger’s career over his thick accent. Imagine the nerve of not speaking English as a native. Eff these effete bigots.
I don’t think she’s a native speaker, so they probably thought she should have studied harder.
“

First sentence: “criticized her Spanish”
Neither Biden nor Harris are good at speaking English.
“I remember racist Americans destroying Arnold Schwarzenegger’s career over his thick accent.”
ROTFL!
Wow she has had a lot of work done. Almost unrecognizable
Ironically, Arnold’s voice is dubbed in Austria/Germany because he apparently has a “hick” accent in German and sounds (to elite Germans) like a dummy.
Deep State elite assholes are the same in every country: USA, Mexico, Israel, Germany, whatever.
I think the Lupus treatment might have had more to do with it than any work TBH
Actor or actress? Why are women running 🏃♀️ away from being a woman.
Yes, I saw that but it didn’t say what about her Spanish they were critical of.
Bad syntax? Bad pronunciation? Bad accent? what exactly?.................
>>The Mexico-born actor first shared his opinion on Gomez’s latest project during an interview
Somehow I doubt the interview was conducted in proper Castilian instead of the “indefensible” Mexican mongrel tongue.
I have been told that my limited spanish (medical) “It’s ok but you sound like a redneck “ by native Spanish speakers.
Lol.
No comprende, it’s a riddle!
