Rapper Ice Spice is putting an end to rumors circulating about her recent weight loss and denying any involvement with the popular diabetes drug Ozempic. The “Munch” hitmaker has faced intense scrutiny over her changing physique, with many speculating that her slimmer appearance was the result of using the drug, which has gained notoriety for its off-label use as a weight-loss aid. However, Ice Spice is setting the record straight and making it clear that her transformation has nothing to do with the medication.
On Monday evening (August 19), Ice Spice took to X (formerly Twitter) Spaces to address the speculation head-on. Tired of the baseless claims, she didn’t hold back in expressing her frustration. “I actually came on here to talk about that real quick,” she began. “Cuz I was like, b####, I wish y’all never learned the word Ozempic. That’s one thing I wish.”
Her tone was both candid and exasperated as she continued to distance herself from the rumors. “Oh my God! Like what even is Ozempic? Wha the f### is that? Genuinely, what is that?” she asked, clearly fed up with the persistent chatter surrounding her body.

Ice Spice went on to explain that her weight loss is the result of her hard work and commitment to staying healthy, particularly while managing the demanding schedule of her Y2K World Tour. “You lazy ass b###### never heard of a gym?” she questioned, hitting back at critics. “It’s called eating healthy. It’s called being on tour. Like what the hell. Maybe if I was sitting at home all day it’d be easier to stay big.”
The rapper’s comments highlight the reality that maintaining a fit and healthy body requires effort and dedication—something she’s fully embraced while juggling the challenges of life on the road. For Ice Spice, the assumption that she took shortcuts to achieve her new look is both insulting and dismissive of her hard work.

Despite the weight loss rumors, Ice Spice also shared a bit about her current health. She admitted that she wasn’t feeling her best and could use a “little tea break” after recently smoking a giant blunt. “But I am a little sick, I’m not gone to lie. Can you hear it?” she asked her followers. “Yeah that big ass blunt did my throat foul.”
Even as she battles a sore throat, Ice Spice isn’t letting the negative attention get her down. In fact, she’s more than happy to flaunt her slimmer figure, as she did recently in a new twerk video that quickly caught the internet’s attention.

As Ice Spice continues to rise in the music industry, her message is clear: her body is her own, and any changes are the result of her own hard work, not a quick fix. By shutting down the Ozempic rumors, she’s reminding fans that there’s no substitute for discipline and dedication, even when the spotlight is on.
