I don't know if you've heard, but Selena Gomez has been nominated for not one, but two Golden Globes. Her nominations were in the categories of best performance by an actress in a television series for her work on Only Murders in the Building and best performance by an actress in a supporting role in a motion picture for her work in Emilia Pérez. In an odd twist of events, her nominations come after her performance in Emilia Pérez was, in no uncertain terms, panned by Mexican actor Eugenio Derbez.

Eugenio recorded an episode of the Hablando de Cine Con podcast with host Gaby Meza and they both went hard on Selena's depiction of Jessi Del Monte. They did not mince words about how much they disliked Selena in the film. Both of them said that Selena's performance was "indefensible" because of how she spoke Spanish in the film. Well, Selena not only heard what they had to say, she responded with class and a teachable moment that resulted in a heartfelt apology from Eugenio. Check out how it all went down.
