Streisand Causes Stir by Questioning McCarthy's Ozempic Use on Instagram

In a recent Instagram post, actress Melissa McCarthy shared photos of herself at the Center Theatre Group's gala in Los Angeles, displaying a noticeably slimmer figure. Celebrities and fans alike commented on her transformation, with many praising her new look. However, a comment from Barbra Streisand, inquiring whether McCarthy had used Ozempic—a medication approved for type 2 diabetes that is also used for weight loss—sparked a wave of criticism among fans.

Streisand's question has since been deleted, but not before it was met with disapproval from fans who found the inquiry to be in poor taste, labeling it as rude and disrespectful. This controversy comes amid a broader conversation about the use of weight-loss drugs in Hollywood, with some celebrities openly admitting to using Ozempic for this purpose, while others have denied such claims. McCarthy herself has not publicly responded to Streisand's comment or confirmed any speculation regarding her weight loss methods.
