Osbourne mentioned that her mother had shed a considerable amount of weight, as she now weighed less than 100 lbs (45 kg).

Meanwhile, Ozempic is one of the medicinal brand names for Semaglutide a.k.a. Wegovy. The drug has been a big and hot topic in the Hollywood lately. 

In case you're not familiar with Kelly Osbourne, she is not only an actress and fashion model, but also a TV personality and singer. She has made remarkable contributions to various projects such as Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002), The Masked Singer UK, Phineas & Ferb, The Muppets Wizard of Oz, and The Osbournes.

Kelly Osbourne believes that Ozempic is an incredible medication. According to her, if proper research is conducted, the benefits of this drug outweigh any potential drawbacks. She emphasized the positive impact it can have on both cognitive function and overall physical well-being. 

She further added that she doesn’t understand why people are so fast to criticize those who do opt to utilize the drug for weight loss. 

“For some reason, society is trying to paint it out to be a bad thing. And I don't understand why,” she says. “If you need to lose some weight, who cares how you do it, as long as you're doing it in a healthy way.”

According to People, she did take different “peptides” and “vitamins” while she was on her own weight loss journey.

 


Peptides are short chain amino acids. As mentioned by Yale University’s obesity physician scientist Ania Jastreboff, the peptide semaglutide and other drugs come in the same class as "nutrient-stimulated, hormone-based medications.”

In short, these prescriptions work in the brain to impact satiety, so people who take the drug become fuller and eat less.
