Garcelle Beauvaisis shutting down any speculation that she’s taking Ozempic for weight loss.
On Sunday,The Real Housewives of Beverly Hillsstar, 56, stepped out for aPride Monthevent in Los Angeles with costarSutton Stracke, posing for a photo that was shared onBravo’s Twitter account.
Underneath the post, Beauvais responded to one Twitter user who questioned whether she was takingOzempic, an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes.
It’s one of the brand names for semaglutide and tirzepatide — also known asWegovyandMounjaro— which works in the brain to impact satiety, and is the latest Hollywood weight loss trend.
“Gracelle has slimmed down quite a bit. Ozempic?? Or healthy eating?” the follower wrote.
The reality star quicklyresponded, “Don’t even start with that ozempic thing I’m not playing with that!!!”
Stracke, 51, then proudly supported her friend, tweeting, “Gettem! 😽😽😽”
Beauvais isn’t the only RHOBH star denying using Ozempic.
Kyle Richardshas also continuously denied using the drug as she faces never-ending accusations about her slimmed-down appearance.
Last month, she spoke toPageSixabout why she’ll never hop on theOzempicbandwagon.
“I’m not on any weight loss drug,” she said. “If you know me, you know I have terrible anxiety so that would scare me to death. I have never, ever ever taken it.”
Richards credits her impressive new physique to her rigorous exercise routine and strict food plan.
“I’m working so hard and I wanted to be a positive role model or an inspiration to people that have had kids and are my age and show that you can get in shape,” she told PEOPLE in March. “So it just felt like they wanted to take that from you and I’m like, ‘That’s just cheating.'”
