Meanwhile, others speculated that the actress might have joined the Ozempic wave after many South African celebrities were accused of using the medicine to lose weight.

Initially used to treat diabetes, the medicine was later discovered to have weight-loss effects, which led to its commercialisation as a quick-fix weight-loss aid.

Mr_Unknown65047 asked:

"Is she also on Ozempic?"

Ntombenhle124 was curious:

"Is she also on Ozempic because she looks so skinny?"

Zealot_New was stunned:

"Ozempic is leaving no celebrity behind."

GriffinGre12276 teased:

"Ozempa-holic!"
