Lizzo reveals secret to her slimdown — and finally sets the record straight on Ozempic use
Don't miss out on the headlines from Celebrity Life. Followed categories will be added to My News. It's about damn time. Lizzo has spoken about her weight loss journey - and clarified her Ozempic use - months after clapping back at rumours about the drug. 'I've tried everything,' the singer, 37, said on Trisha Paytas' Just Trish podcast on Thursday, per Page Six. The Grammy winner explained however that she abandoned the semaglutide, which has not been approved for use for weight loss in Australia, early into her journey. 'Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full,' she said. 'But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing.' Ozempic is also associated with a number of side-effects including most commonly gastrointestinal disorders like nausea, diarrhoea and vomiting, in a way that doctor-approved changes to diet and exercise are not.

Lizzo fans turn on thinner-than-ever star as she finally admits to using Ozempic after rampant denial
Lizzo looked thinner-than-ever at a game as she showed off her extreme weight loss this week - after her Ozempic admission saw fans turn on her. While celebrating Juneteenth on Thursday, the pop singer, 37, revealed her slim physique after slipping into a tight-fitting, all-white outfit, baring her midriff and cleavage. She wore an unbuttoned baseball jersey with her black bra exposed underneath and tied the top in a knot just above her waist. Her Ozempic transformation was on full display, as the star sparked fierce online reaction after she finally admitted to trying the famed celebrity weight loss drug - after years of denial. In the past two years, there has been a flurry of fan speculation about Lizzo using Ozempic as she documented her weight loss journey on social media. She previously denied using any form of weight loss drugs and credited her major transformation due to an extreme workout regimen and eating healthy. However, she made an appearance on Trisha Paytas' podcast Just Trish this week and decided to come clean. 'I tried everything,' she said while explaining how she tried using GLP-1 drugs for several months in the beginning of her weight loss journey. 'Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full. But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing.' Many of her fans seemingly turned on her after she 'lied' for months and previously denied allegations, claiming she achieved her much slimmer figure through 'weight lifting and calorie deficit.' Back in September 2024, she denied rumors and said weight lifting and calorie deficits was her secret to losing weight. She also added this week that she started getting results when she stopped being vegan after many years of not eating meat. 'What did it for me is, it was not being vegan,' she explained. 'Because when I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats. I was eating a lot of bread. I was eating a lot of rice and I had to eat a lot of it to stay full.' The Grammy winner said that eating meat again allowed her to avoid eating products with 'fake sugar and weird stuff.' 'When I started actually eating whole foods and eating, like, beef and chicken and fish, I was actually full and not expanding my stomach by putting a lot of fake things in there that wasn't actually filling me up.' The Truth Hurts hitmaker wore a pair of exposed shapewear and white, capri pants for her outfit to kick off the game She wore a pair of heels to throw the first pitch while attending the Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts' celebrity softball game prior to the game against the San Diego Padres Many of her fans seemingly turned on her after she 'lied' for months and previously denied allegations, claiming she achieved her much slimmer figure through 'weight lifting and calorie deficit.' Others came to Lizzo's defense as they praised her accomplishment and said she couldn't have achieved her transformation on just the weight loss drug alone She also insisted that Ozempic and other weight loss drugs are not 'cheating.' 'It's not easy. It's a drug to help somebody with something they're struggling with,' she said. 'I think people — it's their way of being fat phobic when you're telling someone they're cheating.' She also faced backlash for 'cheating' after she rose to fame for championing body positivity. At the game, she rocked a glamorous look, sporting kitten heels with lace-up, sneaker-inspired details and heavy makeup. She sported an icy blonde hairdo paired with Y2K-inspired sunglasses Many of her other fans also came to Lizzo's defense as they praised her accomplishment and said she couldn't have achieved her transformation on just the weight loss drug alone. They lauded the 'hard work' she put in to transforming her body and to become a healthier version of herself. 'Gee, ya think,' one critic tweeted on X, formerly Twitter. Another added sarcastically: 'In other news. Water is wet.' 'So she cheated basically everyone knew that,' another person added as they slammed her confession. 'What happened with her slogan,' one social media user tweeted about how she got famous by spreading the message of 'body positivity, love your weight and your curves.' Others came to her defense and said it was 'good for her for admitting it.' On Reddit, there were also many fans criticizing Lizzo's confession after her past denial. 'Lol remember when she was posting a ton and saying, "I did this on my own, no shot for me".' 'This is why I never bought the fat positivity BS,' another person added. 'All of these people who claimed to champion beauty at any size jump on the easy solution as soon as they can afford it. Hypocrisy at its finest.' One Reddit user wrote: 'It is hypocritical for her to take it but it's also okay for her to do so. Both things can be true. She said she was proud to be big and then let society's expectations encourage her to take a drug to lose weight.' 'Everybody is "body positive" until an easy weight loss avenue becomes available,' another user wrote while another called Lizzo a 'sell out.'

Lizzo Admits She Tried Ozempic Amid Weight Loss Transformation
Originally appeared on E! Online Lizzo feels good as hell without weight loss medication. The "Truth Hurts" singer admitted that she tried Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs—a class of drugs primarily used to manage type 2 diabetes and obesity—before deciding that the method wasn't the most effective way for her to achieve her weight loss goals. "I tried everything," Lizzo told host Trisha Paytas during a June 19 episode of the Just Trish podcast, before explaining why she wound up ditching GLP-1 medications early on in her journey. "Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full. But if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same thing." In fact, the 37-year-old—who has been documenting her weight loss journey since 2023—said she only started seeing the results she wanted when she made a simple change to her diet: eating meat.

"Because when I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats, I was eating a lot of bread, I was eating a lot of rice and I had to eat a lot of it to stay full." However, adding meat back onto her menu allowed her to more easily consume products that contained less "fake sugar and weird stuff." "When I started actually eating whole foods and eating, like, beef and chicken and fish," Lizzo said, "I was actually full and not expanding my stomach by putting a lot of fake things in there that wasn't actually filling me up." And as for people who do stick with taking Ozempic to achieve their goals? Lizzo urged critics to stop looking at their choice as "cheating." "It's not easy," the Grammy winner said. "It's a drug to help somebody with something they're struggling with." She added, "I think people—it's their way of being fat phobic when you're telling someone they're cheating."
