LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Kelly Osbourne addressed misconceptions about her use of Ozempic, an FDA-approved medication for type 2 diabetes that her mother, Sharon Osbourne, has admitted using.

Osbourne emphasized she has never taken Ozempic herself, but she recognizes its potential benefits when used appropriately. She described it as a "miracle drug" when used under the right circumstances, referencing her mother's positive experience with it.

“I just have to clarify, I've never taken Ozempic. I don't know what Ozempic does to you other than what I saw it do to my mom,” she says. “I think that it is the miracle drug in the right hands.”

“The pros outweigh the cons, and if you really do research, the kind of medication and what it can do for you cognitively and what it does for the rest of your body, like I said, it's a miracle drug,” Kelly says.

Osbourne also falied to comprehend why people criticize those who choose to use the drug for weight loss.

“For some reason, society is trying to paint it out to be a bad thing. And I don't understand why,” she says.

“If you need to lose some weight, who cares how you do it, as long as you're doing it in a healthy way.”

While Kelly Osbourne hasn't specifically tried Ozempic, she mentioned to PEOPLE that she did use different "peptides" and "vitamins" during her weight loss journey.

Peptides are short chain amino acids, and according to Ania Jastreboff, MD, PhD, an obesity medicine physician scientist at Yale University, medications like the peptide semaglutide and others in its class are "nutrient-stimulated, hormone-based medications."

Essentially, these prescriptions work in the brain to affect satiety, causing individuals to feel fuller sooner and consequently eat less.

The Internet is abuzz over Kelly Osbourne's alleged use of Ozempic, despite her recent clarification on the matter.

One user insisted, "The truth will never come out! She did!" indicating skepticism regarding Kelly's denial of using the medication.

Another user commented, "Oh please. She's got Ozempic Face," suggesting that Kelly's appearance may indicate her use of the drug.

A different user expressed a belief that Kelly must have used Ozempic if her mother, Sharon Osbourne, did, stating, "If her mother used it she did too!"

Yet another user remarked, "Nepo baby on the Zempic," 

One user referenced Kelly's previous remarks, claiming, "She admitted she took Ozempic and told people to stop being jealous of people that can afford it."
