Kelly Clarkson Candidly Reveals Use of Weight Loss Aid: 'Everybody Thinks it’s Ozempic'

Kelly Clarkson revealed her body transformation journey by incorporating a weight loss drug, during a candid conversation with Whoopi Goldberg.

In a recent chat on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Clarkson openly discussed her experience with the Type II diabetes weight loss medication known as Mounjaro, shedding light on her experimentation with similar medications for a body change.

"I've lost a lot [of weight] as well," the "Breakaway" hitmaker told Goldberg, according to Page Six.

"Mine is a different one than people assume but I ended up having to do that too because my blood work got so bad."

Despite previous controversy, Clarkson has denied allegations of using the popular weight loss medication Ozempic.

However, the mom-of-two has chosen to keep the details of the prescription she's currently on confidential.

"My doctor chased me for two years and I was like, 'No, I'm afraid of it. I already have thyroid problems,'" Clarkson added.

"Everybody thinks it's Ozempic - it's not - it's something else, but it's something that aids in helping break down the sugar. Obviously, my body doesn't do it right."

Upon reflection, the "Since U Been Gone" hitmaker admitted that she had not fully grasped the extent of her weight until she began shedding some pounds.

Looking back at a video of herself, Clarkson asked, "Who the f is that?"

"My heaviest, I was 203 [pounds] and I'm 5 [foot] 3 and a half [inches tall]," Clarkson added.

"It's funny because people assume, 'Oh she must have been miserable and depressed or whatever,' and I was like, 'No, I was not.'"

According to Extra TV, without giving an official figure on the weight loss, the pop has reportedly shed 60 pounds.

Last year, allegations surfaced that Clarkson had turned to Ozempic to aid in her weight loss journey. The allegations were sparked by a photo she posted online showcasing her more slender physique.

Nevertheless, she attributed her transformation to a combination of healthy eating and physical activity, revealing to People magazine the following January, "I dropped weight because I've been listening to my doctor - a couple of years I didn't."

The former American Idol winner shared that she enjoys strolling around Manhattan and regularly indulges in sessions of infrared saunas and cold plunges, as part of her wellness routine.

"And 90% of the time I'm really good at it because a protein diet is good for me anyway. I'm a Texas girl, so I like meat - sorry, vegetarians in the world!"
