Julia Fox shot down the rumors that she’s on the weight-loss drug, Ozempic, during an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Sunday. The popular diabetes medicine has been used by many for its added weight-loss effect.
“All these people are coming for me saying that I take the weight-loss things — people are saying that I’m taking Ozempic or whatever it’s called — I’m not, and I never have,” Fox told the outlet. “I would never do that. There are diabetics that need it.” Fox’s podcasting co-host Niki Takesh added, “It’s a diabetes medication and there’s people that actually need it.”

Fox has previously spoken about her body changing as she ages, claiming that she has no intention of fighting it off. “Just so you guys know, aging is fully in. Like, fully,” she said on TikTok. “If I see another product that says anti-aging on the label, I’m suing. I’m going to sue. I’m going to age regardless of if I put that f—king $500 serum on my face, and you all f—king know it and we know it, so let’s stop lying to ourselves.”
Elsewhere in her interview with ET, Fox addressed the backlash to her viral New York City apartment tour. She argued that anyone who criticized her for the video has never lived in NYC. “I feel like a lot of people outed themselves for never having been to New York when the outrage about the mouse happened, because it’s like, everybody has mice here!” Fox explained. “It’s when you have rats that you need to regulate. [That’s a] very important distinction.” She also reflected on her own childhood in NYC. “When I was little, I used to have so much fun catching them and releasing them,” Fox added. “But now, it’s like, I’m tired and, like, do I wanna go catch a mouse after a 16-hour day? No, I’m just gonna convince myself that the mouse is a pet.”
