Kate Winslet Ozempic suena terrible!!! Habla de la manía por el peso
Kate Winslet acaba de enterarse de Ozempic y digamos que no estaba saltando de alegría exactamente cuando dio a conocer sus pensamientos mientras comía un pastel.
La actriz tropezó con todo el asunto de Ozempic mientras hablaba con The New York Times Magazine, donde explicó que había oído rumores sobre "una píldora que la gente está tomando o algo así", pero ella no sabía exactamente lo que era.
Algo a tener en cuenta es que Ozempic es originalmente un medicamento para tratar la diabetes tipo 2, que se usa fuera de indicación en Gran Bretaña, de donde es nativa Kate, pero no es tan popular como lo es aquí en los Estados Unidos.
Como resultado, Kate estaba aparentemente horrorizada cuando se enteró para qué se ha estado utilizando. Dijo que sonaba "terrible" y en su lugar animó a la gente a comer más.
El disgusto de Kate con esta estrategia para perder peso a escondidas tiene sentido total si tenemos en cuenta el escrutinio público al que se ha enfrentado por su propio cuerpo, especialmente desde sus días en Titanic, por allá en el 97.
Ella le dijo al medio que los comentarios sobre su peso llegaron a tal punto que comenzó a luchar contra un trastorno de la alimentación, que se lo guardó para sí misma en ese entonces.
Desgarradoramente, Kate compartió que cuando perdió peso, la gente comentaba lo bien que se veía, reforzando esta idea de que verse bien estaba directamente relacionado con cuánto pesaba.
Hoy en día, cuando la gente trata de hacer comentarios sobre el peso de Kate, ya no engancha para nada y se apresura en llamarles la atención al instante. Es seguro decir, que Kate ha tenido malas experiencias con el tema, por lo que sus sentimientos sobre Ozempic no son tan sorprendentes.
Por cierto, hay que decir que está en minoría en este punto. Más famosos están con Ozempic por estos días que no.
KATE WINSLET 'OZEMPIC SOUNDS TERRIBLE!!!' Weighs in On Weight Craze
Kate Winslet's just found out about Ozempic, and let's just say she's not exactly jumping for joy about it -- making her thoughts known while munchin' on a pastry.
The actress stumbled upon the whole Ozempic thing while speaking to The New York Times Magazine ... where she explained she's heard murmurings about "some pill that people are taking or something like that" ... but she didn't exactly know what it was.
Something to note here ... Ozempic, originally a type 2 diabetes drug, is used off-label in KW's native Britain, but it's not exactly all the rage there like it is here in the States.
As a result, Kate was apparently horrified when she found out what it's actually been used for ... with the star adding it sounded "terrible," and encouraging people to just eat more food instead.
Kate's disgust at the whole sneaky weight loss method makes total sense when you consider the public scrutiny she's faced about her body ... especially since her Titanic days back in '97.
She told the publication the historical comments about her weight got to the point where she began battling an eating disorder ... but she kept it to herself at the time.
Heartbreakingly, Kate shared that when she did lose weight, people would comment on how good she looked, reinforcing this idea that looking good was directly tied to how much she weighed.
Nowadays, when people try to comment on Kate's weight, she's not having any of it ... quick to call them out on it right then and there. Safe to say, Kate's been through the wringer on this issue ... so her feelings on Ozempic aren't all that surprising.
She's in the minority here, BTW ... more stars are for Ozempic these days than not.

Cops: Drew Eubanks Suffered Bloody Gums, Loose Teeth ... In Fight W/ Isaiah Stewart
-
Exclusive
- 83 shares
Sounds like Isaiah Stewart's got a mean right hand ... at least according to Drew Eubanks, who told cops his Valentine's Day fight with the Detroit player left him with bloody gums and loose teeth.
According to a Phoenix Police Department incident report, obtained by TMZ Sports, Eubanks made the complaint roughly five hours after he and Stewart were involved in an altercation at the Footprint Center just prior to the Pistons vs. Suns Feb. 14 matchup.
Eubanks, cops wrote in the report, said Stewart confronted him while he was entering the arena due to interactions the two had previously had while playing in a game three months prior.
"He got off the bus and he started, um, just talking s***," Eubanks told cops. "He said something along the lines of, 'You wanna run it back? We're right here. We can do it right now.'"
Pistons' Isaiah Stewart Arrested For Allegedly Punching Suns' Drew Eubanks
Cops say Eubanks told them he tried to walk away from the situation, but Stewart kept advancing toward him ... until they were face-to-face inside of a tunnel in the arena.
Eubanks told cops, according to the report, Isaiah then said, "We can do this s*** right now" ... before he threw "a sucker punch."
Eubanks stated the blow landed in the center of his mouth, causing his gums to bleed. He added, the report states, "My teeth definitely are like looser and they hurt."
When pressed more about why he believed Stewart was so upset, Eubanks stated nothing out of the ordinary happened between the two in their previous matchup.
"Just basketball stuff," the Phoenix center said. "It was, you know, lowering your shoulder. Trying to hit, hit somebody for a box out. Being physical. Talking on the court. That's all it was."
At the time, Eubanks told cops he wished to prosecute ... and Stewart was issued a citation.
However, the report states that on Feb. 17 -- three days after the encounter -- Eubanks called cops and said he no longer wished to press charges.
On Feb. 19, cops say Eubanks told them "he had been thinking about the incident for a couple days and at the time, he was upset, but had time to think about it."
Stewart was still suspended by the NBA for three games. After serving the ban, he apologized to his team during a meeting with media members.
Eubanks, meanwhile, has played between six and 25 minutes per game since the fight.

Terrell Owens Struck By Car After Argument During Pickup Basketball Game, Cops Say
Court records show Wonzur Ratcliff is now facing two counts of felony assault with a deadly weapon ... after authorities say he was the man who rammed his vehicle into Owens' knee on Oct. 16, 2023.
Cops claimed the incident all went down because Ratcliff and Owens had gotten into an argument while shooting hoops on a court in the Calabasas, Calif. area.
Owens, cops said, did not require medical attention.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
T.O. never formally commented on the matter ... although he did allude to it in an Instagram post two days after it happened. The Hall of Famer shared what appeared to be highlights of him playing in the game that led to the incident ... writing in the caption, "ABOUT LAST NIGHT…"
"BUT I DO HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTECT MYSELF. *hope the car is ok!!!"

Nicki Minaj Fans Brawl During 'Pink Friday 2' Tour ... Setting Tone Opening Night!!!
Nicki Minaj fans are clearly passionate ... both about her music and standing their ground, it seems -- 'cause a group of her supporters got into a fight during her tour's opening performance!
The Barbz brawl went down Friday night in Oakland ... the first night of her much-anticipated "Pink Friday 2 World Tour" -- and it definitely started the whole concert run off with a bang.
Just check out the clip ... a couple fans dressed in black are exchanging punches in one section -- with someone in an all-pink ensemble and dyed pink hair hopping into the scuffle.
The person in pink getting shoved back seems to set one of the angry fans off even more ... and they jump forward to start raining blows down on the other combatants.
Unfortunately for them, their opponents quickly put 'em in a headlock and start hitting them over and over while being held back against the seats.
Eventually, some security guards come over and break up the fight, but members of the crowd can be heard seemingly questioning the person in pink's gender -- overall, a pretty ugly scene.
The whole thing marred what was otherwise a very impressive show ... with Nicki breaking out all her classic hits including "Starships" which she said a few months ago she was done performing.
didn’t realize seeing Starships live would go this hard #NickiMinaj #Pinkfriday2GAGCITYTour pic.twitter.com/qtCW0VMdih

ALEXIS BELLINO EAR INFECTED AFTER LODGED PIERCING Dr. Terry Dubrow Steps In!!!

Exclusive

Alexis Bellino ended up needing Dr. Terry Dubrow's expert help when a piercing left her with a nasty infection ... TMZ has learned.
Alexis tells us her cartilage ear piercing had been giving her grief since she got it a year ago ... but it wasn't until a hairdresser accidentally bumped into it last Thursday that she really felt the agony. Ouch!
She says her hairdresser notified her that the earring was deeply embedded in her ear, and the skin around it was clearly infected and overgrown. Alexis didn't waste any time and dashed straight to urgent care to get it sorted out. Smart move!
However, when docs busted out the scalpel, Alexis told them to hold up ... 'cause the only person she'd trust near her ear was Terry. Of course, the "Botched" star's wife, Heather Dubrow is Alexis' costar on 'RHOC,' so it's all about keeping it all in the Bravo family.
The big removal went down Monday, and Dr. Dubrow, being the champ he is, even skipped his lunch break to help her out.
We're told he managed to pull out Alexis' earring, which was decked out with four diamonds, without having to make any incisions. Now that takes some serious skill.
For his part, Terry tells TMZ he's glad Alexis came to him for help ... especially 'cause messing with infected cartilage in your ear is like playing with fire. He explains to us the area doesn't have much blood flow, so if things go south, it can result in seriously gnarly infections that can straight-up wreck your ear, or even worse. Yeah, no thanks!
Alexis is showering Terry with gratitude ... telling us he's a top-notch surgeon and a super kind friend. She's also raving about how Terry squeezed her into his busy schedule ASAP and made sure the whole ordeal was as painless as possible. Now that's the definition of having a true friend in high places!
As for getting another cartilage piercing. She's putting her foot down, and saying never again.

Britt Reid Andy Reid's Son ... Prison Sentence Commuted To House Arrest
-
Exclusive Details
- 167 shares
UPDATE
4:22 PM PT -- Tom Porto, the attorney for Ariel Young and her family, just released a statement on Britt Reid's commutation to TMZ Sports ... saying simply, "What’s different between this criminal defendant and every other criminal defendant in the state of Missouri?"
Ex-Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid -- Andy's son -- just had his three-year prison sentence commuted to house arrest.
Missouri Governor Mike Parson made the surprising decision on Friday ... a little over a year after Reid was thrown behind bars for his role in a DWI crash that left a 5-year-old girl, Ariel Young, with life-altering brain injuries.
A spokesperson for Parson explained the move in a statement to media outlets ... saying, "Reid had completed his alcohol abuse treatment program and has served more prison time than most individuals convicted of similar offenses."
As part of his commutation, Reid will remain on house arrest until October 31, 2025. He'll have to abide by a lengthy list of conditions in order to avoid being thrown back in prison, however -- including working at least 30 hours a week, submitting to random drug screenings, and completing at least 10 hours a month of community service.
Reid is also forbidden from making contact with Young or her family members.
Reid was first hit with criminal charges in the case after authorities said he got drunk days before the Chiefs vs. Buccaneers Super Bowl in 2021 and slammed his pickup truck into the back of a car Young had been riding in.
Authorities alleged Reid was going 83.9 MPH in a 65 MPH zone just before the wreck, and had a BAC of .113 two hours following the accident.
Dash cam footage captured at the scene showed Reid was wearing a Chiefs COVID mask and a Chiefs sweatshirt in the minutes after the crash.
Reid lost his job with Kansas City's NFL franchise a short time later ... and didn't work in the league again before beginning his sentence in November 2022.
We've reached out to an attorney for the Young family for comment, but so far, we haven't heard back yet.

Victoria Beckham Hobbles to Fashion Week on Crutches Broken Foot Be Damned!!!
Victoria Beckham rocked a somewhat unexpected accessory at Paris Fashion Week heading into the weekend -- a pair of metal crutches ... hobbling her way into her own event.
The former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer was seen limping along on the walking aids Friday -- which just so happened to perfectly match her all-black outfit -- ahead of the launch of her latest collection.
Posh Spice kept a low profile as she offered up no smile for the paparazzi and donned oversized black sunglasses -- still looking as chic as ever. Indeed, it was a sorta bizarre sight -- but Vic did her thing and kept it moving ... even if it was a little slow.
Her hubby, David Beckham, revealed last week that his wife was put in a boot after a "little accident in the gym." The retired soccer star told fans on Instagram that VB suffered from a "clean break" ... so hopefully she'll heal sooner rather than later.
Unclear what exactly happened that led to the injury ... but it wasn't enough to totally sideline her, obviously.
Victoria also spoke out about the injury herself ... having first announced the owie on Valentine's Day. VB posted about it on her IG Story ... throwing up a photo of her foot being treated with ice -- confirming she "fell over in the gym." Ouch!
BTW, these fashionable crutches made their way onto Victoria's catwalk, too -- but ever the professional ... the Beckham matriarch merely smized and tottered along, business as usual.
Feel better, Posh!

Wendy Williams Lifetime Doc Draws Millions of Viewers ... Bigger Than Gypsy Rose!
Wendy Williams truly is the queen of all media -- or at least the queen of Lifetime -- ... 'cause her new doc has apparently taken cable TV by storm ... even beating Gypsy Rose.
According to the network ... Lifetime's "Where is Wendy Williams?" averaged 1.2 million views in the "live + three-days-after" category -- meaning, people just couldn't wait to watch the stunning television docuseries.
As it pertains to those who watched the show live, or on the same day ... Williams stands head and shoulders above the rest, slightly edging out viewership numbers put up by "The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard" in January ... which set a record at the time with an average of 1.1 million viewers per night over the course of 6 nights.
In fact ... Lifetime says it's their most-watched doc since they released a Janet Jackson documentary back in 2022 -- with "Where is Wendy Williams?" accounting for 6.2 million total viewers across linear and digital TV so far.
Looking to capitalize on the Wendy Williams buzz, Lifetime also ran a bunch of WW-related content ... which brought in nearly eight million viewers total when it aired last weekend.
The four-episode docuseries also apparently performed admirably on Apple's Top TV Charts and Amazon's Top TV Purchases list, and scored a ton of social media engagement to boot.
Still, it's a bit shocking she outperformed Gypsy Rose's life story ... 'cause the doc that aired just a couple of months ago drew massive audiences just after GR was released from prison for her role in her mother's murder. To be fair though, Wendy's been the subject of some huge headlines recently.
As we previously reported, Wendy's suffering from aphasia and dementia which was revealed just days before the doc series aired. Wendy herself broke her silence ... thanking her legions of fans for their support.
BTW ... the filmmakers are swearing they didn't know anything about Wendy's health issues -- claiming they never woulda filmed if they had.
Seems like a lucky break for Lifetime that the creators didn't know ... 'cause pretty much everyone tuned in for "Where is Wendy Williams?" -- everyone wanted to catch this one.

Tyreek Hill Celebrates 30th Birthday On Yacht ... Not Sweating Model Lawsuit
Tyreek Hill clearly ain't too worried about the lawsuit a model hit him with last week ... the Miami Dolphins superstar is currently out on a yacht -- celebrating his birthday in some serious style.
The wide receiver -- fresh off being sued by an influencer who claimed he broke her leg in a fit of rage during a football drill last summer -- was seen on a big boat with his wife on Friday afternoon in a large body of water.
Hill seemed to party without a care in the world ... smooching his significant other, dancing around and soaking in all of the first hours of his 30s.
Hill also got to enjoy some balloons as well ... and even a custom cake!!
Of course, it hasn't all been sunshine and rainbows for Hill the last few days ... particularly after Sophie Hall filed her lawsuit on Feb. 23 -- suing him for unspecified damages.
Hill's attorney, though, has adamantly denied all of the allegations -- calling them a shake-down attempt ... and based on his bday actions, it's obvious Tyreek thinks he ain't losing the suit either.

'Rust' Director Joel Souza Couldn't Believe He'd Been Shot ... X-Ray Confirmed Real Bullet
Joel Souza recalled being rushed to the hospital after the "Rust" shooting ... and said he couldn't believe he'd been shot with a real bullet ... that is, until doctors showed him proof.
The director -- who was wounded in the same accidental shooting that killed Halyna Hutchins on the set of "Rust" back in 2021 -- testified Friday during Hannah Gutierrez-Reed's trial that he didn't understand he'd been shot even while standing in the hospital.
Souza explained he did understand something had hit him -- but he couldn't believe it at first when doctors told him a real, live bullet had hit him.
Joel said he told hospital workers repeatedly they didn't understand what happened, repeating often that the incident took place on a movie set -- so there's no way a live bullet could've struck him.
After much protesting, JS says docs showed him an X-ray of his back ... and a real bullet was right there nestled underneath his skin, and he finally accepted the truth.
Of course, all this and much more has come out during Hannah Gutierrez-Reed's involuntary manslaughter trial that kicked off last week.
A number of Hannah's former coworkers have testified on behalf of the prosecution ... with line producer Gabrielle Pickle even claiming she recommended a system to Hannah so she might keep track of the on-set guns better -- which she said Hannah turned down.
It's all part of the prosecution's argument that Hannah's sloppiness with guns and ammo on the set is to blame for the tragic incident.
For her part, Hannah's lawyers are claiming she was under an incredible amount of stress because she served as both armorer and prop assistant for the movie.
It looks like the trial will continue into next week.
Stay tuned ...

CAMIONERO DE KENTUCKY CUELGA SOBRE EL RÍO DESPUÉS DE UNA COLISIÓN Increíble rescate
Una situación de pesadilla absoluta vivió un conductor que se encontró colgando de un puente de Kentucky el viernes, literalmente tambaleándose al borde de la muerte.
¡Tienes que ver este clip! Una cabina de camión y parte de su remolque estaban colgando sobre el río Ohio luego de una colisión en el puente Clark Memorial, pero el equipo de emergencia de Louisville llegó rápidamente arriesgando sus propias vidas para salvar al conductor.
El escuadrón de rescate entró en acción, con un miembro de la tripulación colgando y yendo al rescate como una especie de superhéroe. Honestamente, es el tipo de cosas que ves en las películas.
Como se puede ver en las imágenes, se las arregla para conseguir que el conductor salga del vehículo, y con cuidado lo deja en un lugar seguro al rededor de las 12:45 PM.
A pesar del caos en el puente, ningún otro vehículo se vio perjudicado y la policía confirmó que nadie resultó gravemente herido.
Parece que ambos lados del puente están actualmente cerrados, ya que oficialmente concluyó la operación de rescate y solo queda limpiar la escena por completo, tiene sentido.
Es un milagro sin duda, y todo gracias a la valentía y rapidez del equipo de emergencia.
Conduzcan con cuidado.
KENTUCKY TRUCK DRIVER DANGLES OVER RIVER AFTER COLLISION ... Daring Rescue On Video!!!
An absolute nightmare situation unfolded for one semi-truck driver, who found himself dangling off a Kentucky bridge Friday ... quite literally teetering on the edge of disaster.
You gotta see this wild clip ... a truck cabin and part of its trailer hung over the freezing Ohio River following a collision on the Clark Memorial Bridge -- but the Louisville emergency crew were on it like lightning ... risking their own lives to pull the driver to safety.
The rescue squad swung into action, quite literally -- with one crew member repelling off the side of the bridge like some kind of superhero. This is honestly the kind of stuff you see in movies.
As you can see from the dramatic footage, he manages to get the driver outta the vehicle, and carefully works them both back up to the safety of the bridge by 12.45 PM.
Despite the chaos on the bridge, no other vehicles got tangled up in the mess ... and police confirmed that nobody thankfully was seriously hurt from this ... or worse.
Looks like both sides of the bridge are currently shut down as they officially wrap up this whole rescue operation ... and clear out the scene completely. Makes sense -- you wanna get this buttoned up before opening up the roads again.
Safe to say ... it's a miracle this didn't end up being worse than it was -- of course, thanks to the courage and quick thinking of the emergency crew. Mad props to them!!
Drive safe, everyone.

Tyreek Hill Model's Lawsuit Is BS ... She Got Injured Tripping Over A Dog!!!
-
Breaking News
- 25 shares
Tyreek Hill is fighting back against the model who said he broke her leg during a fit of rage in a football drill ... saying she got injured merely because she tripped over a dog.
In a lawsuit filed in Florida last week, Sophie Hall -- an influencer with over 2 million followers on Instagram -- claimed that after Hill courted her through a series of direct messages last summer ... she showed up at his Southwest Ranches mansion.
She alleged that while there, the two engaged in some football drills -- and when she "held her own" against the Miami Dolphins star, he became embarrassed and enraged. She said he then "charged into her violently and with great force," causing her to sustain a serious leg injury.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
But, Hill's attorney, Julius B. Collins, said in a statement to TMZ Sports on Friday that Hall's lawsuit is complete BS ... and an attempt to shake down the NFL player.
According to Collins, Hall did show up to Hill's home and the two did engage in some "playful" drills ... but she hurt herself when she fell over a dog -- not because Hill turned violent.
Collins called Hall's claims "disgusting and cunning."
"This lawsuit is baseless," Collins said, "and nothing more than an attempt to bring bad publicity to Mr. Hill and force him into paying them and their client monies."
Collins added that Hill has opened up an insurance claim for the injuries Hall suffered while at the wide receiver's residence ... but Hall filed the lawsuit "in an attempt to 'scare tactic' him into personally covering the cost of Ms. Hall’s medical bills."
"Mr. Hill is prepared to defend against this baseless lawsuit head on," Collins said.
For the Dolphins' part, general manager Chris Grier told media members at the NFL Combine this week they were aware of the suit and are still gathering information.
"For us," he said, "Tyreek has been a good addition for us, but in terms of all the off-field stuff, we'll have to get all the information before we can really comment on it."

Here's a milestone for Jussie Smollett -- he's completed a rehab stint for substance abuse.
Sources close to Jussie tell TMZ … earlier this month, the former "Empire" star finished a 5-month outpatient program.
We're told Jussie put in the work, focusing on his health and being consistent with his workouts during his time in rehab.
Remember ... Jussie's substance abuse came up frequently during his criminal trial in Chicago, which is still hanging over his head as he continues to fight his conviction and jail sentence.
On the bright side, our sources say Jussie's new management team is hard at work gearing him up for the upcoming release of his new film and other projects.
As we reported, Jussie checked himself into an outpatient treatment facility back in October, and during his rehab stint, we saw him reading Matthew Perry's memoir ... which, of course, detailed the late actor's own struggles with addiction.
Jussie continues trying to push forward through the past several years of adversity. Completing rehab was one hurdle, and the next big one will be his legal battle.
As we reported, he's waiting to see if the Illinois Supreme Court will weigh in on whether his conviction -- and subsequent 150-day sentence -- should stand.
