During a recent episode of MTV's “The Surreal Life,” the R&B singer spoke to “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kim Zolciak and Olympic ice skater Johnny Weir about her experience with using the FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes.

“Oh boy, my stomach hurts. I’ve just been really constipated. I took Ozempic. I can’t go to the bathroom, and I was up all night,” Gray said. Zolciak then replied with, “Ozempic does that. You have to be really careful, you know.”

In a confessional, Gray added, “Quietly, I’m kind of a vain person. I’ve gained a lot of weight over the past couple years, and this is right about the time when everybody starts talking about this Ozempic.”

“So, I thought, okay, I’m not taking [the weight] off the right way, let me see if I can get one of these Ozempic,” she continued on the show. “I was actually trying to take it off [the weight] before the show because I didn’t want to be super fat on TV, but here we are.”

As reported by BET, in June, Kandi Burruss revealed that she hopped on the Ozempic trend last year but it did not work for her. “I saw so many people who were trying it and losing weight. So I was like, ‘OK, I’m going to try this.’ And I didn’t lose any weight,” the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum said during an interview.

“My doctor was like, ‘I don’t know what the problem is, I’m not seeing this in other people.’ It didn’t curb my appetite. I know some people are like, ‘Oh, I can’t eat.’ Not me! I was eating appetizers, a regular meal and dessert, OK? It didn’t stop anything for me,” she continued. “When you see it worked for other people and it doesn’t work for you, it makes you depressed. Realistically, it makes you feel like, ‘What is wrong? Why is it not working for me?’”
