Ice Spice has denied using Ozempic to lose weight.
The 24-year-old rapper has slimmed down in recent months but insisted that she has not been using the controversial drug - which was initially created for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes but has a side effect of weight loss - and instead claimed that she has simply been exercising and sticking to a healthy diet.
Speaking during an X Spaces chat, she said: "I wish y'all never learned the word Ozempic, that's one thing I wish. Oh my god, like, what even is Ozempic? "What the f*** is that? Genuinely, what is that, bro?
"Like, you lazy a** b****, you never heard of a gym? It's called the gym. It's called eating healthy. It's called being on tour. Like, what the hell? Maybe if I was sitting home all day, it would be easier to stay big."
The 'Deli' hitmaker recently explained that she has learned to embrace her critics and suggested that they've actually helped her to "win at life".
Ice - whose real name is Isis Gaston - told Rolling Stone magazine: "When people ask me, 'Oh, how do you deal with the hate?' I don't give a s*** because I won, bro. I win at life.
"I can only just be grateful for people talking s***, for people supporting me. Everything that comes with the territory, I can only be grateful for."
Despite this, Ice confessed to feeling particularly frustrated by her relationship with fellow rap star Latto.
Speaking about her rap rival, she said: "I can understand a friendly competition, but I just feel like at this point it’s a joke that she’s just dragged out, and it’s just not even funny."
However, Ice has insisted that there's no real "issue" between them.
The 'Bikini Bottom' hitmaker explained: "I feel like if we ever spoke and I asked her, ‘What’s the issue?’ It’d be like a blank stare. It’d really be no issue whatsoever. Especially from me."
