“She’s On That Ozempic”: Selena Gomez Unveils Dramatic Weight Loss At 2025 SAG Awards
Selena Gomez captured everyone’s attention at the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards with her noticeably slimmer appearance, leaving fans and media outlets both surprised and intrigued.
The singer’s significant weight transformation sparked admiration and speculation alike, with many online users complimenting her radiant, leaner look, while others speculated about the influence of Ozempic, a widely known weight loss medication.
Stepping onto the red carpet in an exquisite, floor-length, deep navy Celine gown paired with elegant Jimmy Choo heels, Gomez, now 32, completed her ensemble with her stunning marquise-cut engagement ring from fiancé Benny Blanco. Her striking appearance at the highly anticipated awards ceremony on Sunday, February 23, solidified her presence as a style icon.
Resembling a modern-day Snow White, Gomez’s slender figure immediately became a focal point for onlookers at the event. Her transformation ignited mixed reactions across social media, fueling conversations among fans and critics alike.

Almost instantly after she made her entrance, discussions flooded X, formerly Twitter, where fans eagerly shared their thoughts. Admirers couldn’t help but express their admiration, with one user stating, “Selena Gomez is truly thriving and embracing her best self.”

Another fan echoed similar sentiments, writing, “Wow… She has never looked better!” Meanwhile, some online users speculated about the possibility of Gomez utilizing weight loss treatments. One user added to the controversy by remarking, “She seems to look different every time I see her.”
Supporters of the singer quickly came to her defense, highlighting her well-documented health struggles. One user reminded critics, “Her weight fluctuates because of lupus and her medications. She always looks stunning.” Another brought up her 2017 kidney transplant, stating, “Given her lupus diagnosis and kidney transplant, her medications might be affecting her weight.”
Gomez’s physical appearance has been the subject of public scrutiny for years. Living with lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease, the singer has openly discussed how her medical treatments lead to periodic changes in her weight. In a heartfelt 2023 TikTok live session, she shared, “I retain a lot of water weight when I’m on medication, but once I stop, I naturally shed it.”
She emphasized that her health takes precedence over any aesthetic concerns, adding, “My treatments are essential, and they help keep me healthy.”
Offering words of encouragement, she reassured her followers, stating, “To anyone out there feeling ashamed of what they’re experiencing—just know that nobody truly understands your journey. You are beautiful and worthy just as you are.”
Firing back at those who critique her body, Gomez further asserted, “I’m not a model. That’s never been my goal, though I admire them. I just wanted to express my love and gratitude for those who support me. And if you don’t… well, just move on. I don’t believe in body shaming in any form.”

At the Los Angeles premiere of her latest film, *Emilia Perez*, back in November, she was seen donning a sophisticated black dress, placing her hands over her midsection. The images stirred up controversy on TikTok, where some users speculated that she was attempting to conceal her physique, labeling her as insecure.
Frustrated by the ongoing scrutiny, Gomez took to social media to address the accusations, writing, “This is absolutely sickening. I have SIBO, which affects my small intestine and causes flare-ups. I’m not concerned about looking like a stick figure—I never have, and I never will. That’s just not my body type. End of discussion. And no, I’m not playing the victim. I’m simply human.”
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a condition in which an excess of bacteria accumulates in the small intestine, often leading to bloating, discomfort, and other digestive issues.
As the SAG Awards celebrated the finest performances in both film and television, Gomez received recognition for her accomplishments in 2024.


Nominated in two major categories—Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture for *Emilia Perez* and Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series for *Only Murders in the Building*—Gomez ultimately secured a win for the latter. This marked her first-ever SAG Award, a milestone achievement in her career.
Despite the ongoing chatter about her physical appearance, Gomez continues to focus on her work, her health, and her happiness, proving that she remains an unstoppable force in the entertainment industry.
