TABLE TALK AT THE GOLDEN GLOBES: OZEMPIC

Move over Oppenheimer and beat it Barbie, (not to mention Taylor Swift and Timothee and Kylie) the TALK of this year’s Golden Globes was OZEMPIC! According to our spy who attended the Globes, most of the table chatter wasn’t about the movies or performances, but about everyone’s experiences with the miracle weight loss drug that seems to have taken over Hollywood. While a few guests, like Oprah Winfrey, have publicly copped to taking the medication, many of those attendance felt comfortable enough to exchange info about their personal journey. To no one’s surprise, our spy also revealed that the majority of the food served at the ceremony seemed to go UNTOUCHED!

POST MALONE BLAMED COKE FOR HIS OLD BODY

Post Malone is still insisting that it was coke that caused him to GAIN weight – not lose it. He’s not talking about the drug- Malone means Coca-Cola! It turns out he was in the habit of drinking can after can of his beloved Coke all day long, without a second thought. Not long ago he realized all that sugar had plumped him up to 240 pounds. It wasn’t easy, but he stopped guzzling Coke and saved it only for special occasions. (like champagne) It’s hard to believe, but the 28 year old singer gradually lost almost 60 pounds without the help of Ozempic! He says that performing is much more fun now. This is kind of a slap in the face for the Coca-Cola company- if we were CEO, we’d send Post a few cases of Diet Coke and try to keep him as a customer…

WAS THAT PARIS JACKSON WHO JUST WALKED BY?

She’s been compared to Kurt Cobain with her grunge fashion, but Paris Jackson, 25, probably makes more money as a model than she does from her music so far. Despite her fame, she’s able to walk around Melrose Avenue and browse at the Fairfax flea market alone and unrecognized. And she has lost a LOT of weight. Of course she brought her service dog Koa with her and he has a sign on his harness that says DO NOT PET, so we’re guessing she feels quite safe. Just looking at her, you’d never guess she was worth a hundred million dollars. Smart girl.

HOW REBEL WILSON’S BABY AFFECTS HER WEIGHT

Rebel Wilson is dancing up a storm at The Abbey in West Hollywood while her audience throws money at her feet. She’s busily promoting her new dating app called Fluid– where people looking for love can date men, women, or both- no rules. We watched her lose 80 pounds over the last year or so, but she seems to have gained a few pounds back. Rebel says she LOST weight because of her new baby girl and the baby has also caused her to GAIN some weight. A fertility doctor advised her to lose weight before becoming a mother, and she did. When her surrogate baby girl Royce was born in November, Rebel admits her exercise schedule collapsed and she concentrated on baby care. Now she’s back to exercising and dancing whenever possible…

JESSICA SIMPSON’S MYSTERY DIET

Jessica Simpson has been bombarded with questions about her amazing weight loss- which we just noticed rather recently. Jessica says she lost 100 pounds in 2019 – after she finished having children. A HUNDRED pounds? Hard to believe. We recall a voluptuous Jessica, but not one THAT heavy. She vaguely claims she did it with advice from a nutritionist and more workouts with her trainer. Hmmm… We have a powerful feeling there is MORE to this story than meets the eye. Jessica’s got a secret she doesn’t want to share. In this photo she is thinner than we have ever seen her before. She and her lookalike daughter Maxwell were photographed at Maxwell’s basketball game.

WHAT’S UP WITH KAIA AND PRESLEY GERBER? ANYTHING GOOD?

Last night Kaia Gerber celebrated her 21st birthday with a Hollywood party and her brother Presley (above) attended, but we hardly recognized him. The handsome 23 year old model has lost an enormous amount of weight. You can see it even more clearly in other photos (that I couldn’t afford) taken last night. And he’s trying to cover it up by wearing a heavy jacket on a hot night. His gaunt look wasn’t the only unanswered question of the night. Kaia’s boyfriend Austin Butler was nowhere in sight. In fact, they haven’t been photographed together since July. Was Austin STILL busy promoting his Elvis movie? – or is their romance kaput?

CHEERS TO ADELE AND HER NEW LOOK!

Wow! One look at the photo Adele posted of herself on her 32nd birthday says it all – she is incredibly pleased with herself. Imagine the fun she’s going to have shopping! For months, Adele has been working out religiously and watching everything she ate. Her determination paid off with a whole new body! Yet SOME people want to spoil this moment by whining that “your weight doesn’t determine your beauty” or that celebrating weight loss sends a negative message about body image. Ridiculous. It so happens that a slimmer body is usually healthier and Adele did it the HARD way – by improving her lifestyle. SHE’S happy so let’s be happy FOR her – and inspired by her too!

SLIMMER ARETHA FRANKLIN STILL WON’T DISCUSS HER SURGERY

Aretha Franklin’s taped message on the Grammys revealed that she has lost a considerable amount of weight. She still refuses to discuss her hospitalization and surgery a few months ago, so speculation never stops. At first it was assumed she had lap-band surgery to lose weight, but the rumor that she had surgery for pancreatic cancer began to circulate. Either would cause weight loss. Aretha is strangely reluctant to reveal her health issue but she did say “Doctors believe my surgery will add 15 to 20 years to my life.” We hope so.
