Ozempocalypse?

Ozempic has hit a strange cultural nerve. At the 2023 Academy Awards, host Jimmy Kimmel joked that “everybody looks so great. When I look around this room, I can’t help but wonder, ‘Is Ozempic right for me?’” The audience laughed nervously. As with liposuction or Botox or anything that suggests a lack of unmediated beauty, Hollywood is skittish about admitting its affinity for the diabetes-turned-weight-loss drug.
