Fans Accuse Christina Hendricks Of Using Weight Loss Drug
Hendricks came under fire from fans after sharing pictures of herself wearing a fitted black gown.
The actress looked stunning in the shots, taken beside a glass-covered door that reflected her slim physique.
However, some fans who noticed that Hendricks had lost a lot of weight accused her of using Ozempic to attain the figure.
This medication is commonly prescribed to individuals with diabetes but has also been widely promoted as an effortless method to achieve rapid weight loss.
A fan commented, "Literally everyone is on Ozempic," while another asked the "Good Girls" star to "lay off" the weight loss drug.
Amid the backlash, Hendrick also got some positive comments from other fans.
One fan wrote, "THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE HOTNESS," and a second penned under the post," You are looking beautiful, Christina."
Christina Hendricks' Stunning Outfit
Hendricks' outfit also received rave reviews from some fans, with one describing it as a "lovely dress." It was stylishly designed with puffy sleeves and a plunging neckline that flaunted her bosom.
She accessorized the look with gold chandelier earrings and a clutch bag that matched the outfit. Hendricks also donned black eyeliner and added blush to her cheeks to complete her makeup.
Her hands were donned with nude nail polish, and she packed her red hair in a bun. She then posed with her right hand on her waist while facing in different directions for the three shots.
It appears the actress took the picture before a night out with friends, as she added the caption "dinner with friends."
The upload has garnered over 80,000 likes after the "Mad Men" star shared it on her page.
Several Stars Have Admitted To Using Ozempic

The allegations against Hendricks come after "Real Housewives of New Jersey" alum Lauren Manzo admitted that she used a variant of the drug to lose 30 pounds, per Page Six.
Manzo said that her doctor prescribed it to help her shed more weight after she dropped 50 pounds by dieting but "couldn't lose any more."
"I have been considered morbidly obese," the 35-year-old said, explaining why she took the drugs before slamming Housewives who have allegedly abused the drugs.
She added, "I think people shouldn't abuse [Ozempic]. I think it's being abused because I see people, 'Housewives,' posting, and you see their ribs, and it's sad because you were already skinny."
Two other Bravo stars, Dolores Catania, and Golnesa "GG" Gharachedaghi, have also admitted that they used the drug to shed some weight.
Christina Hendricks Has Yet To Address Ozempic Rumors

While Manzo, Cantina, and Gharachedaghi have come clean, several other stars have denied using Ozempic, slamming those who have brought such allegations against them.
Kyle Richards, a cast member of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," said she found those claims quite "offensive," whereas "Real Housewives of Orange County" star Gina Kirschenheiter blasted a fan who called her out.
In the meantime, it is unclear if Hendricks did use Ozempic to shed weight, as she has yet to clarify those rumors.
In March, she became engaged to camera operator Bianchini, whom she started dating in 2020 after meeting on the set of NBC's "Good Girls."
At the time, the actress announced the proposal with a cute post on her Instagram page alongside a picture of themselves. She captioned the photo, "We proposed to each other, and said yes!!! I will love and care for him forever."
