Oprah Winfrey recently denied reports that she’s taking popular Ozempic injections to lose weight. Fand noticed the mogul recently dropped a lot of weight and wondered if Oprah gave in to the current weight loss trend.

In a recent discussion about obesity during her “The State of Weight” panel, Oprah shared that she thought about taking Ozempic, which is prescribed for people with type 2 diabetes.

“Shouldn’t we all just be more accepting of whatever body you choose to be in? That should be your choice,” Oprah said during the panel. “Even when I first started hearing about the weight loss drugs, at the same time I was going through knee surgery, and I felt, ‘I’ve got to do this on my own.’ Because if I take the drug, that’s the easy way out.’”

Oprah also admitted she lost weight by hiking and eating healthy food while recovering from knee surgery last year.

“I had knee surgery in August, and then I had another knee surgery in November,” she said. “When I came home the first time, I literally could not lift my leg. I couldn’t lift my heel off of the bed, and I vowed if I was ever able to get up, walk around, and move again — that I would take advantage of movement, exercise, and of being able to be fully in my body.”

Battling weight gain her entire career, Oprah once infamously talked about being shamed for being overweight. “This is a world that has shamed people for being overweight forever, and all of us who have lived it know that people treat you differently, they just do,” Oprah said to USA TODAY. “I’m Oprah Winfrey, and I know all that comes with that, but I get treated differently if I’m 200-plus pounds versus under 200 pounds.”

Charlamagne Tha God

Charlamagne tha God is blasting the decision of Nicki Minaj’s husband Kenneth Petty, who threatened Offset. That threat has now landed Petty under house arrest. Speaking on The Breakfast Club, Charlamagne claims Petty has forgotten street rules.

“You begging to go to prison,” CTG said. “It’s incredible to me that all these street dudes have let the Internet make them forget street rules. Number one, you should’ve been let go of all the childish ways of the street, first and foremost. That’s number one. But number two, I remember a time where folks wouldn’t talk about any dirt over the phone. Now y’all recording yourselves in 4K and posting it online?”

Last week, Kenneth Petty threatened Offset on social media. Unfortunately for him, that threat has led to legal trouble.

According to famed court reporter Meghann Cuniff, Petty has been ordered to 120 days of house arrest by a federal judge in Los Angeles for his threats.

“Mr. Petty was recorded on video making threatening remarks towards a specific individual while in the company of someone with a criminal record,” the order reads. “This recent violation conduct raises concerns over Mr. Petty’s willingness to comply with the Court’s orders.”

Last week, Nicki Minaj was enjoying family time after a successful night hosting the MTV VMAs. Hitting Instagram, Minaj posted an image of herself with her son, Papa Bear, and husband, Kenneth Petty.

Jeannie Mai ‘Devasted’ by Jeezy Filing for Divorce, Hopes to Find a Resolution

by
Jeanniemai and Jezzy

Jeannie Mai is reportedly “devasted” by Jeezy’s decision to file for divorce. An insider states Mai “wants her family unit back” and hopes that Jeezy turns back on the divorce.

“The truth is Jeannie wants her marriage to work, and wants her family to be one solid unit,” a source said to Page Six. “She is devastated that Jeezy filed for divorce.”

In addition to being devasted, Jeannie reportedly “deeply loves Jeezy” and wants to work things out. “She did not get married to get divorced. This was not a part of the plan. This is not how she ever imagined things would go down.”

Jeannie is now hoping that Jeezy would be willing to work toward a resolution and take divorce off the table.

Jeezy and Jeannie Mai’s seemingly sudden divorce now has additional detail. The split between the two celebrities is reportedly due to “certain family values and differences.”

According to Entertainment Tonight, an insider stated, “They had different views, and each felt like their needs weren’t being completely met.” Jeezy filed for divorce last week, citing their marriage is “irretrievably broken” in the court documents.

The filing was placed in the Fulton County Superior Court, and the two have already separated. There is a prenuptial agreement in place.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Jeezy is seeking joint custody of their daughter.

If completed, the divorce would end a marriage that began in March 2021. The ceremony was at their home during the pandemic.

Recently, Mai celebrated Jeezy’s new book, Adversity for Sale: Ya Gotta Believe. “Your story has always been an inspiration to me, but seeing it in print has left me even more in awe of your strength and wisdom,” she wrote on Instagram. “You invited us into the most intimate corners of your life, where pain and triumph coexist.”

In January 2022, Jeannie and Jeezy welcomed their child. “I asked God for a life of love and happiness. He sent me my family… Baby Jenkins is Here 🍼 ❤. ” Which included a shot of the newborn blankets sitting in the hospital baby bassinet with a sign that covered the usual name of baby, weight, length, and time of birth that simply said, Jenkins.   

Best known for co-presenting the daytime talk show, Jeannie Mai began trying to start a family with Jeezy before their March 2021 wedding. After suffering a pregnancy loss, she considered in vitro fertilization but ended up conceiving naturally.  

“It was the most beautiful sign that anything’s possible, that you’re not in control and God has a plan,” she told Women’s Health in September 2021 while announcing her pregnancy news.

“Being a mom is hands down the hardest role in the entire world. Now that we’re bringing another Jenkins into the picture, I have no idea what to expect.”

SOURCE SPORTS: Liberty Sweep Mystics to Move to WNBA Semifinals

New York Liberty nyliberty X

The New York Liberty seems to be on a collision course with the Las Vegas Aces. Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu, and company ousted their first-round opponent, the Washington Mystics, on Tuesday night, 90-85, completing a two-game sweep.

The game went into overtime, sparked by center Jonquel Jones’ clutch rebounds and two free throws at the end of regulation. Overtime had too much Breanna Stewart for the Mystics to hold on.

Stewart led the Liberty with 27 points and nine rebounds. Jones added 19 points and 14 rebounds. While swing guard Betnijah Laney added another 19 points. Natasha Cloud led the Mystics in scoring with 33 points. Two-time league MVP Elena Delle Donne had 11 points but only shot 4-16, including 0-6, from the field.

“That’s the beauty of this team. It’s pick your poison every single night,” Ionescu said to ESPN. “And as long as we can continue to stay together and win, that’s why we’re all here, is to play unselfish basketball.”

The Liberty now await the winner of the last first-round series between the Connecticut Sun and Minnesota Lynx, who play a decisive game 3 on Wednesday (Sept. 20).
