On August 10, “The Talk” host Sharon Osbourne was spotted shopping at Neiman Marcus in Beverly Hills with her daughter Aimèe Osbourne. Dressed in different cardigan and pant variations, the duo perused the high-end racks of clothes before making their way to the valet. While the posh shopping trip wasn’t unusual for the British celebrity, her noticeably slimmer face and figure sent shockwaves among pop culture enthusiasts. “That is not Sharon,” one Twitter user wrote.
A week before being papped in Los Angeles, Osbourne opened up about her weight loss journey with Ozempic –- which is reportedly the reason behind her new look. “You have a weight problem, and you’ve tried everything, and then somebody says take this injection and you’re going to be skinny,” she revealed during an episode of Bill Maher’s podcast “Club Random with Bill Maher.”

Elsewhere in her interview, the TV host admitted that her 30-pound weight loss journey had its painful moments. “For me, the first weeks was f***ing s*** because you just throw up all the time. You feel so nauseous. After a couple weeks, it goes,” she explained.
In recent years, Ozempic use has skyrocketed within the Hollywood sphere. In addition to Osbourne, Bravolebrity Dolores Cantina, Chelsea Handler, and comedian Amy Schumer have admitted to taking the drug to lose weight. While Ozempic has become the latest health fad, it was originally created to control blood sugar levels in patients with Type 2 diabetes, per GoodRx.
