Bella Thorne criticized Ozempic for promoting unrealistic body standards while she has been focused on maintaining her shape naturally.

The "Measure of Revenge" star, 26, shared a video on her Instagram Stories on July 20, wearing a blue and black leopard-print bikini to demonstrate her figure, expressing her frustrations with the weight loss drug and its impact on body image.

“So, I haven’t been feeling good about my body for a while,” she started. “And especially with everybody on Ozempic, it’s like setting all these crazy beauty standards that nobody can keep up with unless you’re on Ozempic.”

Currently on a Mediterranean vacation with her fiancé, Mark Emms, Bella highlighted her increased physical activity during the trip.

“I have swam every day and I have sweat out everything possible and I have walked everywhere,” she shared. “And, I’m finally feeling good about myself, OK?”

“I’m finally feeling good, so Ozempic, you can f–k off,” added the "Midnight Sun" star while expressing her frustration towards the camera.

Bella demonstrated her confidence by posting a series of bikini photos on the same day she criticized Ozempic. She wore a black two-piece with high-cut hips and a plunging top, showcasing her figure.

The former Disney Channel star's snapshots included her on a yacht at sunset, along with bikini mirror selfies. She also shared a video of herself relaxing on the boat, flaunting her figure in the swimwear.

Bella has been vocal about her struggles with body image in the past. She revealed being bullied by executives over her weight after her series "Famous in Love" was canceled.

In 2019, the Pembroke Pines native shared photos where she appeared extremely thin, explaining her health journey and the pressures of the industry on body image.

“I’m all about being yourself loving your body yada yada but these photos they make me not love anything about it,” she expressed. “Looking back on these times and what this biz, and movies and life can do to you and everything along with that. But you know I look at this picture and I’m also proud.”

Bella shared that she had regained the weight she lost and more, emphasizing the importance of being healthy and incorporating exercise and proper nutrition into her routine.
