Celebrities Who Have Spoken Out About Ozempic: Who Has Discussed the Weight Loss Drug?

The weight loss medication Ozempic has become the most talked-about drug in Hollywood, with several celebrities like Kyle Richards and Garcelle Beauvais denying that they’ve taken it to shed pounds. Meanwhile, others, including Gracie McGraw and Dolores Catania, have admitted to using the drug and described their results.

The FDA-approved semaglutide — which was originally produced for adults with type 2 diabetes — works with the brain to reduce food cravings. It also makes a person feel fuller faster when eating and regulates how the body stores fat and uses sugar. The prescription medication is administered by a once-a-week injection.

Both Whoopi Goldberg and copanelist Sunny Hostin admitted on a March 2024 episode of The View that they used Mounjaro, a semaglutide similar to Ozempic, to lose significant amounts of weight.
