Rebel Wilson Reveals She Tried Ozempic For Weight Loss
HuffPost
The “Pitch Perfect” star, who is no longer taking the drug, said women shouldn't "obsess over looking like Victoria’s Secret models."
Rebel Wilson is opening up about her short-lived experience with Ozempic.
Ozempic, a diabetes treatment that controls blood sugar levels, has become a controversial craze in Hollywood as many celebrities, including Amy Schumer and Sharon Osbourne, have come forward about taking the medicine as an off-label weight loss drug. The Food and Drug Administration has not approved Ozempic for weight loss.
In an interview with The Sunday Times published Sunday, Wilson, 44, got candid about the medication, telling the British outlet, “Someone like me could have a bottomless appetite for sweets, so I think those drugs can be good.”
The “Pitch Perfect” star, who noted that she is no longer using the injectable medication, said that she had decided to lose weight after her fertility doctor told her it would improve her success with in vitro fertilization.
“Basically no one apart from my mom wanted me to lose weight,” Wilson said. “People thought I’d lose my pigeonhole in my career, playing the fat funny character, and they wanted me to continue in that.”
