Post Malone's weight loss in 2023 prompted speculations as to whether he was using ozempic or other weight loss drugs, to which he replied on the Howard Stern Show in October 2023, saying:
"No, sir. I'm not on Ozempic."
The 29-year-old attributed his weight loss to a healthy diet and exercise. Prior to his appearance on The Howard Stern Show, he had denied using any weight loss drug when he wrote a long post on his Instagram in April 2023. He said:
"Wanted to say that I'm not doing drugs. I've had a lot of people ask me about my weight loss and I'd suppose, performance on stage. I'm having a lot of fun performing, and have never felt healthier."
2) Lizzo
The Feelin Good As Hell crooner recently shared photos on her Instagram from her vacation in Bali, Indonesia, in which she appeared to have lost some weight, prompting rumors about her using Ozempic. While Lizzo hasn't responded to these allegations, she told The New York Times in March 2024:
"I'm taking time every day to put some love into my body. There is never a day when I regret taking a walk or doing some pilates. I've been methodical, losing weight very slowly.''
Lizzo has also shared clips of herself exercising and lifting weights while on vacation on her Instagram page.
3) Ice Spice
The 24-year-old rapper has been facing allegations of using Ozempic after she debuted her new look on Instagram. The rapper, known for her curvy physique, now sports a more toned profile, which she attributes to exercising and working out. Ice Spice responded to the rumors when she hosted an X Spaces chat on August 19, 2024, saying:
"I wish y'all never learned the word Ozempic. That's one thing I wish," she said. "Oh my God, like, what even is Ozempic? What the f**k is that? Genuinely, what is that?"
The Princess Diana hitmaker also clapped back to rumor mongers by posting a video of herself working out in the gym with the caption:
"We beatin' them allegations bae."
4) Christina Aguilera
The What a Girl Wants hitmaker has attracted much media speculation for the cause of her drastic weight loss. Fans and media began wondering about the source of Christina Aguilera's weight loss when she appeared at her Mexico performance in May 2024 with a slimmer physique.
The 43-year-old had previously spoken about her weight loss journey. She disclosed to L'Officiel Italia in 2020 that even though she wasn't dieting anymore, she was more focused on eating well. In an August 2024 interview with Glamour magazine, Aguilera addressed weight loss rumors, saying:
"I have a maturity now where I just don't give a f**k about your opinion. I'm not going to take it on. It must be your responsibility to take up your space. Other people's opinions of me are not my business."
5) Kim Petras
The Unholy crooner debuted a slimmer frame in the summer of 2024, leading fans and media alike to wonder if she had gotten on the Ozempic train. In April 2024, Petras canceled all of her summer festival performances, citing health issues as the reason. The 31-year-old took to Twitter and Instagram stories to share the news with fans:
"My buns, I'm devastated to be writing this but I'm going through some health issues, and under medical advice, I have had to make the hard decision to not perform at festivals this summer.''
she continued:
''I love u so much and I'll make it up to you and be back better than ever very soon,"
However, Petras hasn't addressed the weight loss rumors.
While these artists have faced weight loss drug speculations, most have maintained that their weight losses stem from exercising.
