However, internet users focused on Ryan’s chiseled face and wondered if he had joined the train of celebrities using ozempic or if he was battling some illness behind closed doors which made some defend him by pointing out that he was aging naturally.

Netizens took to X to write remarks such as, “That’s Ryan Seacrest??? No way. Absolutely no way,” another chimed in, “Wow, Ryan Seacrest looks....different,” with a shrug emoji.

On the other hands, those who defended him noted, “Ryan Seacrest is 51 years old and never fat, looks good for his age. Why is everyone saying ozempic? lol so stupid.”

A fourth internet user commented, “Ryan Seacrest has always been tiny, so I’m not sure that he looks any different other than older.”
