KELLY Clarkson has revealed she used a weight-loss drug to lose weight.
The 42-year-old singer insisted it was not Ozempic but a different medication that helped her lose 60 pounds in recent months.

Kelly made the admission while speaking with Whoopi Goldberg on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Monday.
“Every time I meet you, you look younger!” she told The View co-host.
“You’re like Benjamin Button. It’s crazy every time you come in!”
“First of all, it’s all the weight I’ve lost. I lost almost two people,” replied Whoopi, 68 years old.
“I’m making that wonderful picture that works for people who need help and it’s been really good for me.”
“Mine is different from what people imagine, but I ended up having to do it too because my blood test was really bad,” Kelly revealed.
“My doctor hounded me for two years and I thought, ‘No, I’m scared of this. I already have thyroid problems. Everyone thinks it’s Ozempic, but it’s not. It’s something else.”
The American Idol alum didn’t reveal exactly what medication she was taking, but said it was “something that helps break down sugar since your body “doesn’t do that right.”
The six-foot-three singer — who shares nine-year-old daughter River Rose and seven-year-old son Remington Alexander with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock — said she weighed 203 pounds at her “heaviest.”
She admitted that she didn’t notice her weight gain and was surprised to see herself on camera after the image review.
“It’s shocking. Seeing it yourself, I didn’t see it… I suddenly thought ‘Who the hell is that?’
“It’s a strange thing. I’ve never seen it, I’ve never been insecure about it — I just haven’t seen it.”
Kelly added that, in hindsight, she felt like she didn’t look healthy.
“I watched [myself on a] show and I thought, ‘Any second, she’s going to die.’
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
In February, sources exclusively told The US Sun that the talk show host combined a healthier diet with regular exercise to keep his weight off.
“This has her fans excited, but it’s not a big deal for Kelly or the show’s team because Kelly is constantly updating her look, her workouts and her diet,” the source said.
“It is constantly evolving and has always been that way.”

The singer previously revealed she felt inspired to change her lifestyle after doctors told her she was pre-diabetic.
“I wasn’t shocked. I was a little overweight, so I wasn’t shocked,” Kelly said on her show.
She was told she was “on the verge” of getting diabetes.
In January, Kelly revealed that moving from Los Angeles to New York for her show has helped her lifestyle.
“Walking around the city is a great workout,” she told People.
The pop star added that she has been eating “a healthy mix” of foods and treating herself to occasional treats.
