Kelly Clarkson shocked her fans earlier this week when she revealed a much slimmer physique in a new Instagram snap.
In the photo, the 41-year-old singer, who went through a bitter divorce from her ex Brandon Blackstock, 46, in 2021, wowed in a black lace top and matching black pants as she prepared for an appearance on Jimmy Fallon.
The “Stronger” hitmaker’s slim new “Revenge” body sparked speculation among fans that she is taking Hollywood’s favorite weight loss drug, Ozempic.
Kelly hasn’t talked about her weight loss recently, but she has previously opened up about losing over 40 pounds.
The star’s weight has fluctuated over the years as she gave birth to two children, River Rose, 9, and Remington Alexander, 7, with her now-ex-husband.

After she shared the hot new snap, her 7.2 million followers were quick to respond to the comments, writing: “Guuuurl just look at how much weight you’ve lost!!! ‘So proud of you!!!’
“You look absolutely stunning!” Get ’em, girl! Welcome back!’ Another enthusiastic fan applauded.
Many of Kelly’s followers speculated that she might use Ozempic’s help to achieve the stripped-down look.
“What the hell is going on up here?” someone asked, while another person added: “Ocempic face.”
Another fan wrote: “Wow. You look amazing. I take Ozempic and have lost 90 pounds. It’s the best thing in my life.’
“Ozempic looks good on you!” someone else chimed in, while another added: “Ozempic works wonders!”
However, others disputed Ozempic’s claims and wrote that a number of other factors may have contributed to the weight loss.
“I know you’ve all been out here accusing our queen of taking diet pills, but every woman’s body can change over time, be it from stress, post-traumatic stress disorder, professionals, or just naturally, through training.” Even though Kelly took diet pills. It’s not your body or your business to judge.’

Since U Been Gone: Brandon and Kelly were married for seven years before splitting in 2020, sparking a lengthy legal battle over money; pictured 2018
Comments continued to pour in about her incredible looks, with one fan writing: “Look at you!! Glowing doll!!!”
Kelly, who won the first season of American Idol in 2002, also showed off her slim figure while attending the We Can Survive concert to promote mental health awareness on October 14.
In 2020, she admitted that she felt “more pressure” in the music industry when she was thin.
The “Since U Been Gone” singer said she used to be shown naked magazine covers featuring women and said, “You’re competing with that.”
“I felt more pressure. It was more about handing you magazines and saying, “This is what you’re competing with, and we have to compete with it.” I can’t compete with that. That’s not even my picture. That’s not me. They are,” she told Glamor UK.
Kelly and her ex Brandon were married for seven years before splitting in 2020, sparking a lengthy legal battle over money.
The divorce dragged on for a year and a half before it was finally finalized in March 2022. The divorce led to a brutal custody battle between the exes, with Clarkson ultimately winning primary custody.
Kelly released a bitter breakup album earlier this year called Chemistry that detailed the “good, the bad and the ugly” of her relationship with Brandon.
She recently moved to New York City with her children for a “fresh start” and will now host her self-titled talk show in the Big Apple.
