Furious Jackie ‘O’ Henderson fires back at Ozemic rumours again and insists she DIDN’T use the diabetes drug to lose weight

Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has fired back at speculation about her incredible weight loss.

The media queen, 48, was interviewed on the Something to Talk About podcast on Saturday, and denied she has taken the weight loss drug Ozempic.

Ozempic, an appetite suppressant previously used to treat Diabetes type II, has seen an increase in prescriptions for obesity, and is rumoured to be used by many celebrities to keep a trim figure.

Speculation that The Kyle and Jackie O Show co-host had taken the drug first started swirling when she appeared on the cover of Stellar magazine in May after losing an enormous amount of weight.

‘When the Ozempic rumours first came out, I was like, “Oh, are you joking?”; she told the publication.

‘I know how hard I’ve worked and I haven’t taken that,’ she said, stating for the record that she did not take the diet drug.

‘I was frustrated when those were coming out and I found the more I was defending myself, the more I felt, OK, this is a losing battle.’

She admitted that she was never going to change anyone’s mind about how she achieved her body transformation. 

‘The people who believe I have, or was taking Ozempic, you’re never going to change their mind. Because I think they want to believe it,’ she said.

‘I know I didn’t take any short cuts. It’s just not what I did. I can’t really deny it any more than I have. I’ll take a lie-detector test. You got one?’

She has also previously denied undergoing gastric band surgery.

In this same podcast appearance, Jackie O was also asked about how much money she makes as a radio host and media maven.

‘I do sometimes get embarrassed to talk about money. I hate showing off wealth. I’ve always been like that,’ she said.

‘I want a nice bag, car and house, but I don’t want to flaunt it. But [at the same time] I shouldn’t be embarrassed about it, so I am trying to take more ownership of that.’

She continued: ‘As a man, they’d absolutely be owning that, and as a female, when you’re single, it’s quite scary to earn a lot of money, because a lot of men can be intimidated by that.’

The star has slimmed down over the years and landed a lucrative endorsement deal with Weight Watchers earlier this year 

Jackie’s estimated $5million annual radio income doesn’t include performance bonuses.

She is also an in-demand TV personality who most recently appeared as a judge on The Masked Singer Australia, for which she was reportedly paid $1million.

In addition, she has a string of lucrative sponsorships, including her $500,000 deal with WW, formerly known as Weight Watchers.
