Later on Oct. 5, Wu posted on her Instagram Stories that she had mistakenly identified the gala. During the episode, she first said that the event was hosted by the Coalition of Asian Pacifics (CAPE), not Character Media, who actually led the gala.
“In an interview with ‘Red Table Talk,’ I recounted a gala in 2019 that I went to, but misidentified the hosting organization of that event,” Wu said. “It was the Unforgettable Gala that was hosted by Character Media, not CAPE (Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment). I apologize to @capeusa & regret the error.”
During the interview, Wu also discussed her strained relationship with her mother, why she didn’t come forward about being raped at 22 years old and the sexual harassment she faced on the Fresh Off the Boat set, all of which are also talked about in her memoir, Making A Scene.
Making A Scene is out now.
