Kelly Clarkson Gets Slammed for Ozempic-Shaming After Candid Admission

American plastic surgeon and TV personality Terry Dubrow slammed Kelly Clarkson for allegedly shaming people who take Ozempic.

Dubrow, a renowned figure in plastic surgery, revealed to TMZ his honest thoughts on Clarkson's conversation with Whoopi Goldberg on her weight loss transformation.

"If you don't want to admit to Ozempic and you want to say it's another medication, there's only one other medication, and that's Mounjaro. Let's just say it. Let's celebrate it," the celebrity doctor said, who said Clarkson's comments were "honesty-adjacent."

However, Dubrow, who has also admitted to taking Ozempic, wasn't all that harsh with Clarkson as he had praised her for her significant transformation.

"Thank you for admitting to it. I think it's fantastic. ... She looks amazing," Dubrow admitted.

Dubrow's comments came on the heels of Clarkson's candid admission at The Kelly Clarkson Show that he took a Type II diabetes drug called Mounjaro, finally clearing the air of speculations that she took Ozempic.

"I've lost a lot [of weight] as well," Clarkson told Goldberg. "Mine is a different one than people assume but I ended up having to do that too because my blood work got so bad."

Clarkson revealed that her doctor had pushed her for two years to take Mounjaro, but she was apprehensive because she had thyroid problems.

"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."

According to Clarkson, the heaviest she got was 203 pounds, noting that she was only five foot and three and a half inches tall.

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

In the past, Clarkson attributed her reported 60-pound weight loss to physical activity and a healthy diet.

"Walking in the city is quite the workout. And I'm really into infrared saunas right now. And I just got a cold plunge because everybody wore me down," Clarkson explained to People. "I eat a healthy mix. I dropped weight because I've been listening to my doctor - a couple years I didn't. And 90 percent 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!"
