Kathy Bates from 20 years ago?

This is what she looks like recently

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago

Damn. That does not look like a 76 year old woman. Good on her.

Wow, she's unrecognizable in that photo.

Gotta be ozempic. Hollywood is obsessed with that shit, and YouTube keeps pushing it

That's a pretty harsh conclusion. Not saying it isn't true, but why jump to that?

Also, who watches YouTube with ads? Ublock or newpipe on the phone is great.

And correct me if I'm wrong, but the long-term effects haven't been studied yet, have they?

I'm fully expecting some side effect to come whooping ass some time down the line

Ozempic was an established drug before, it just wasn’t widely prescribed for non-diabetics. That is not say there is no chance of long term harm (and I share the sense that some downside will eventually come to light), but it’s not a huge chance.

She was successful through all her career without weightloss. Now she's somewhat unrecognisable, which I see a much bigger obstical for her career.

But she is 76 by now, chances are she had some kind of health issues that made her lose weight.

Similar to John Goodman, it's lose weight or die at that age

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Oh nice, for some reason I was under the impression she had died in the last year or two. Now I'm wondering if I was just mistaken, ate a hoax, or was recently merged back into this timeline a la mandela effect.
