Barbra Streisand is catching a lot of heat on social media after questioning whether Melissa McCarthy used Ozempic to achieve her recent look.

It all started Sunday … Melissa – who has long struggled with weight issues – posted a photo of her slimmer self with friend and film director, Adam Shankman, as they attended the Centre Theatre Group Gala in L.A.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

As you can see, Melissa looked terrific in her light green dress with a matching blazer alongside the stylish Shankman. She captioned the image with a combined message of going to the event with Shankman and getting closer to her dream of dancing onstage.

Enter Streisand … Babs wrote in the comments section of Melissa’s IG post, “Give him (Shankman) my regards did you take Ozempic?” Of course, everyone knows Ozempic is a controversial diabetes drug that can be used to lose weight.

While Barbra seemingly was not trying to be malicious, she received an avalanche of online criticism from Melissa’s fans.

A third wrote, “Whether she did or did not is no one else’s business.” And still others described Barbra’s question as “rude,” “nasty” and “disgusting.”

All the backlash prompted Barbra to later remove her comment. Melissa has yet to say anything about the kerfuffle. We’ll update you if she does.
