Melissa McCarthy showed off her incredible weight loss on the red carpet while she made clear there was no bad blood between her and Barba Streisand after their Ozempic drama.
The 53-year-old Spy actress looked stunning as she posed at the Unfrosted premiere in Hollywood on Tuesday night. Opting for an eye-catching floral ensemble, Melissa made sure all eyes were on her as she attended the glitzy event with her husband Ben Falcone. The star accessorized her look with a floral headband adorned with pearls, along with flower-shaped earrings and a cream hexagon-shaped clutch bag.
Shortly before the premiere, Melissa took the opportunity to show there was no bad blood between her and Barbra. Earlier this week, the 82-year-old iconic singer sparked fierce backlash when she insinuated Melissa has used the type 2 diabetes weight-loss drug Ozempic to help her lose weight. In a now-deleted comment of the Bridesmaids star sporting her slimmer frame at an LA theatre gala, Barbra wrote: “did you take Ozempic?”

On Tuesday night, Melissa - who has reportedly lost a total of 75 pounds - seemed keen to put the drama behind them. Posting a funny Instagram reel, the comedy star held up a magazine cover with Barbra on the front. Looking up to the camera, Melissa joked: “The takeaway. Barbra Streisand knows I exist. She reached out to me and she thought I look good. I win the day.”
In the caption of the hilarious clip, Melissa shared words of love for Barbra, writing: “@barbrastreisand fan club members only!!!”, followed by a row of red heart emojis. Fans have been quick to applaud Melissa’s response, with one writing: “Exactly - this how a goddess responds to an icon. All love and fabulousness.” Another added: “A class act.”
Ozempic was introduced in 2018 in America and Canada to treat diabetes and obesity. Celebrities such as Rebel Wilson and Sharon Osbourne have admitted to using the drug to help them shed their extra pounds.
