    She concluded by raising her middle finger to the camera and saying: “Finally feeling good. So Ozempic, you can [f–k] off.”

    The Ozempic trend, sweeping through Hollywood, is cenetered on the drug’s off-label use for weight loss. Originally approved by the FDA for managing type 2 diabetes, Ozempic and other semaglutide drugs have gained significant attention among celebrities for their weight loss effects.

    While Bella has given Ozempic the finger, other celebrities have spoken about shedding several pounds after incorporating it into their lifestyle.

    Kelly Clarkson, Tori Spelling, Rebel Wilson, and Sharon Osbourne are some of the stars that have opened up about using similar drugs.

    “Mine is a different [drug] than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too because my bloodwork got so bad,” Kelly told Whoopi Goldberg on an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show. She did not name the drug she used.

    Although Bella slammed Ozempic and the beauty standards the come with it, several other Hollywood A-listers have said they benefited from such drugs

    “My doctor chased me for two years, and I was like, ‘No, I’m afraid of it. I already have thyroid problems.’ Everybody thinks it’s Ozempic, but it’s not. It’s something else,” the Because of You singer added. “My heaviest, I was like 203 [lbs.] And I’m like 5-ft.3-in. and a half.”

    Meanwhile, Pitch Perfect actress Rebel told The Sunday Times in March 2024 that she was no longer on any weight loss drug but believes it can be helpful to some.

    “Someone like me could have a bottomless appetite for sweets, so I think those drugs can be good,” she said.

    Media icon Oprah Winfrey, who once said, “for 25 years, making fun of my weight was national sport,” also revealed that she used a combination of a weight loss drug with a healthy diet and physical activity to trim down her waistline.

    As a visual editor in the News team, I look for the most interesting pictures and comments to make each post interesting and informative through images, so that you aren't reading only blocks of text. I joined Bored Panda not that long ago, but in this short amount of time I have covered a wide range of topics: from true crime to Taylor Swift memes (my search history is very questionable because of that).In my freetime, I enjoy spending time at the gym, gaming, binging Great British Bake Off and adding yet another tattoo artist that I would love to get a tattoo from to my pinterest board.

    There's nothing wrong with her body, at all. Damn, I wish I had her body. Her approach, though, seems to be opportunistic to show off her body. Seems to be the going trend with celebrities these days.

    It's people like that in Hollywood that are all using ozempic and diabetes patients can't get it cause it's always out of stock. The rest of us can't afford it out of pocket and insurance won't cover it either.
