Hollywood Doctors Link Ozempic Use to Met Gala Celebrities

At this year's Met Gala, while the official theme honored black history, many observers noted a widespread trend among celebrities showcasing slimmer physiques and more defined waistlines. Plastic surgeons interviewed by multiple outlets suggested that the current Hollywood aesthetic favors a lean, natural look, likely influenced by the use of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro. These medications, once a Hollywood secret, are now mainstream and are speculated to have been used by various A-listers to achieve their red-carpet appearances. The phenomenon of 'Ozempic face,' characterized by sagging skin and sunken features following rapid weight loss, was discussed, though some doctors emphasized that not all celebrities exhibited these effects. Experts also noted that some stars might be microdosing these medications to maintain a healthy and elegant look. Overall, the event reflected broader societal trends regarding body image, celebrity influence, and the rising popularity of weight-loss drugs.
