The 2025 Oscars were full of memorable moments. However, when Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg reunited on stage to honor the late Quincy Jones, they had everyone talking. The former The Color Purple co-stars raised eyebrows with their outfits and slimmed-down physique during Hollywood’s biggest night. The two women showed off their tiny waists and unique fashion sense at the show, and fans immediately took notice. The pair were even criticized online for their weight loss, as fans cited Ozempic for their new look.
The Daily Mail reports that Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg were dressed to the nines for the Oscars. The former talk show host sported a black dress that included a suit jacket, white collared shirt, black tie, and a floor-length sparkly black skirt. She added dangling earrings and wore her eyeglasses on stage for the tribute.
Meanwhile, The View host changed up her usual laid-back look as she rocked an attention-grabbing blue dress. The strapless gown featured a cinched waist, puffy skirt, and embellished top. She accessorized with diamond stud earrings, a necklace, and also wore her eyeglasses on stage.
Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg Show Off Ozempic Weight Loss At 2025 Oscars
Of course, fans couldn’t help but take to social media to share their thoughts on Oprah and Whoopi’s weight loss. While some gushed over how great the legendary stars look, others weren’t so nice.
“Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah teaming up for an Ozempic commercial at the Oscars? Now that’s a surprise collab! Hollywood always keeps us guessing,” one person wrote via X.
“Ozempic Twins,” another stated.
“So much for Weight Watchers,” a third person said.
“The ozempic did wonders for Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah,” a fourth comment read.
Both Winfrey and Goldberg have been open about their use of weight loss medication. In 2023, Oprah revealed that she had lost about 50 pounds thanks to the use of GLP-1 medication like Ozempic. Meanwhile, Whoopi told fans on The View that she used Mounjaro for weight loss.
Of course, the duo aren’t the only stars who have confessed to using Ozempic and other similar products. Celebs such as Kelly Clarkson, Scott Disick, Sharon Osbourne, Chelsea Handler, Amy Schumer, Rebel Wilson, Kathy Bates, and more have all been open about the weight loss medication (via TODAY).
Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg looked happy to be at the Oscars to pay tribute to Quincy Jones. They haven’t addressed criticism of their weight loss methods. However, they seemed healthy and happy, and that’s all that matters.
