Nikki Glaser defends Ozempic use against thin white women

Nikki Glaser has responded strongly to critics of the weight-loss drug Ozempic. During an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," she argued that many of these critics are thin white women who feel threatened by its use. Glaser expressed her support for people using Ozempic and encouraged open conversations about it. She believes that some thin individuals are upset because, in her view, their thinness is their main asset. In contrast, she said that those who are heavier often develop stronger personalities. She also addressed concerns over Ozempic's original purpose as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes. According to Glaser, critics only care about this issue now because they are upset that diabetic patients may struggle to get their medication due to the drug’s popularity for weight loss. In her characteristic style, Glaser closed her remarks with a humorous jab at the critics, saying: "You’re just upset that Kathy Bates has a thigh gap!" The conversation around Ozempic has stirred controversy in Hollywood, with some celebrities supporting its use and others opposing it.
