Kate Winslet isn't down with Hollywood's obsessive use of weight loss drugs.
The acclaimed actress, 50, known for films like Titanic, Little Children, Revolutionary Road, and The Reader, as well as her iconic turn on the HBO series Mare of Easttown, spoke candidly in a new interview about the widespread use of drugs to lose weight. While Winslet didn't name any drugs specifically, it's assumed she's referring to the popular usage of GLP-1s like Ozempic and Wegovy in Hollywood, which are injectable prescription medications.
“It is devastating," Winslet told the Sunday Times. "If a person’s self-esteem is so bound up in how they look it’s frightening. And it’s puzzling because I have moments when I think it’s better, when I look at actresses at events dressed how they want, whichever shape — but then so many people are on weight-loss drugs. It’s so varied. Some are making choices to be themselves, others do everything they can to not be themselves. And do they know what they are putting in? The disregard for one’s health is terrifying. It bothers me now more than ever. It is f---ing chaos out there.”
That's along with the widespread use of injectables like Botox and fillers.
“Oh, it’s terrifying,” Winslet shared, noting that it's not “all the f---ing actresses” but the rest of the world, “people who save up for Botox or the s--- they put in their lips.” “I think no, not you! Why?"

An Obsession with Social Media
Winslet faced an onslaught of criticism from the media for her looks when she first skyrocketed to stardom in the '90s alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. There was no way she could prepare herself for that level of fame, and her family was worried.
"The media was vile, singling me out for relentless bullying. I wasn’t ready to be a famous actress. I was so young, but I felt so invaded. Nothing was nice. People climbed into my garden. I couldn’t go to a shop. I was followed when I had a baby in the back of the car on my way to the paediatrician. It is abnormal and, to my dad, I was still that little girl he helped clean out the rabbit hutch every Saturday afternoon," she recalled.
While she fought to have women feel comfortable with their looks for years, she "feels like nobody cares anymore.”
“No one’s listening because they’ve become obsessed with chasing an idea of perfection to get more likes on Instagram," she said. "It upsets me so much.”
