In 2024, one drug became a household name: Ozempic. The anti-diabetes medication, also known by its generic name semaglutide, has soared in popularity and profit, particularly among celebrities seeking to lose weight.
Ozempic’s rapid impact on weight loss has caught the attention of social media users, especially after several high-profile stars admitted to using it in 2023. Since then, any celebrity seen with significant weight loss has faced speculation about their possible use of the drug.
The 2025 Golden Globe Awards showcased a noticeable trend. Many celebrities appeared with noticeably slimmer figures, sparking further discussion online. The event, which places heavy emphasis on appearance, led to widespread rumors that Ozempic use had contributed to their transformations.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the stars at the Golden Globes were using GLP-1 to look their best,” said a dietician in an interview with the Daily Mail. “It’s highly effective for weight loss, even for those who aren’t necessarily overweight.”
