The weight loss drug Ozempic has rapidly gained attention in Hollywood — and beyond. Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, the semaglutide injection has now become widely known for its role in helping people lose weight. According to Antlerzz, online searches for Ozempic have surged by 170% in the United States, with more than 1.2 million searches recorded each month.
Many celebrities have been open about how the medication has changed their lives and bodies, fueling public interest. Oprah Winfrey shared how taking a GLP-1 medication shifted her perspective on eating. Speaking on The Oprah Podcast, she said, “All these years I thought thin people just had more willpower… then I realized the very first time I took the GLP-1 that they’re only eating when they’re hungry, and stopping when they’re full.”
Stars like Rebel Wilson and Sharon Osbourne have also spoken publicly about using Ozempic. Meanwhile, Whoopi Goldberg and Meghan Trainor revealed they’ve taken Mounjaro — another appetite-suppressing drug that works in a similar way to Ozempic by targeting GLP-1 and GIP receptors.
Experts caution that while these medications can help with weight loss, they can also have long-term side effects. Anyone considering them should first speak with a healthcare provider. Despite the risks, the experiences of well-known figures continue to boost the drugs’ popularity, showing how powerful an impact they can have on lifestyle and health.
