Rebel Wilson Admits To Using Ozempic For 80-Pound Weight

Actress Rebel Wilson admitted to using Ozempic to help her lose 80 pounds but says she is no longer taking the drug. Ozempic is a type 2 diabetes drug that has recently begun trending on social media for weight loss.

Wilson told The Sunday Times, “Someone like me could have a bottomless appetite for sweets, so I think those drugs can be good.”

In 2020, Wilson underwent a complete health transformation after doctors told the actress she could face infertility due to her weight and polycystic ovarian syndrome, also known as PCOS.

Known for her comedic roles such as Fat Amy in the Pitch Perfect film series, Wilson said about her weight loss, “People thought I’d lose my pigeonhole in my career, playing the fat funny character, and they wanted me to continue in that.”

Wilson and her partner Ramona Agruma welcomed a baby girl via surrogate in November 2022 named Royce Lillian.

In January 2024, Wilson opened up about her 30-pound weight gain due to stress. “It makes me feel bad about myself,” the actress said in an Instagram post. Wilson has worked with a trainer and changed her diet for her 80-pound weight loss.

Wilson’s new memoir Rebel Rising is set to launch this Tuesday.

Last week, Wilson accused fellow actor Sacha Baron Cohen of being a “massive a——” on the set of their films Grimbsy and Borat. Wilson mentioned the incidents in a chapter of her memoir but did not name Cohen in the memoir.
