• Kelly Osbourne praised Ozempic as “amazing” saying critics “are secretly doing it or pissed off that they can’t afford it”
• Mom Sharon Osbourne has shared her negative experiences with the popular weight-loss drug, saying she’s lost too much weight on it
• Kelly defended Ozempic, saying it isn’t “as boring as working out”

Kelly Osbourne thinks Ozempic is “amazing” — even though her mom Sharon Osbournepublicly disagrees.

“The people who hate on it the most are the people who are secretly doing it or pissed off that they can’t afford it,” Kelly, 39, told E! Online. “Unfortunately, right now it’s something that is very expensive but it eventually won’t be because it actually works.”

However, the Osbournes matriarch, 71, recently said that“you have to keep this stuffaway from younger people” after sharing that she’d lost too much weight on the popular diabetes drug.

Ozempicis an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes. It’s one of the brand names for semaglutide — also known asWegovyandMounjaro— which works in the brain to impact satiety, and is the latest weight loss trend.

Kelly, who had gestational diabetes while pregnant with son Sidney, now 14 months, defended the medication, saying, “People hate on it because they want to do it.”

“There are a million ways to lose weight, why not do it through something that’s isn’t as boring as working out?”

Kelly didn’t say whether she’s taken the drug, but she has perviously shared with fans details of her85-lb. weight lossdue togastric sleeve surgery.

“I had surgery; I don’t give a f— what anyone has to say,” Osbourne told hosts Dax Holt and Adam Glyn on their Hollywood Raw podcast, in response to rumors about plastic surgery. “I will never ever ever lie about it ever. It is the best thing I have ever done.”

But mom Sharon isn’t holding back from criticizing popular weight-loss methods; She recently told The Guardian that swearing off Ozempic and surgery has allowed her to “finally” be happy with her appearance.

“I’m through with the weight loss and all that cosmetic stuff,”she told the outlet. “I was injecting myself with Ozempic and I lost three stone [about 42 lbs.] in four months. Too much. I now weigh seven stone [98 lbs.] and can’t put on weight.”

“I’m shaping up fine,” she said. “I’ve finally become more accepting of my body, my looks.”
