In a recent episode of her show, “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” the singer had Whoopi Goldberg on as a guest. And Goldberg discussed her experience with using weight loss drugs. To this, Clarkson jumped in with her own experience.
Clarkson told Goldberg and the audience that she had not really intended to share this information about her life. Then she revealed that she had been prescribed some weight loss medication after she had some abnormalities appear in her bloodwork.
She told the crowd, “Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that, too.”
She went on, “My doctor chased me for like 2 years. And I was like, ‘No, I’m afraid of it. I already have thyroid problems.’ Everybody thinks it’s Ozempic, it’s not. It’s something else. It’s something that aids in helping break down the sugar. My body doesn’t do it right.”
This revelation comes after Clarkson had previously said that her weight loss was due to living a more active lifestyle in New York City and eating a protein-heavy diet. But it seems that was not the whole picture.
During Monday’s episode, Kelly revealed how it was a concert that gave her a wakeup call. She said she did not recognize herself when she saw the footage of her L.A. show, saying that in the video, she was at 203 pounds, which had been her heaviest.
Clarkson joins the ranks of many other celebrities who have recently revealed that they have been taking weight loss medication to lose weight. Other stars like Oprah, Rebel Wilson, Heather Gay, and more have revealed that they have done something similar.
