Olivia Wilde’s latest red carpet appearance has sparked a massive debate about health, beauty standards and Hollywood pressures.
The actress and director attended the 69th San Francisco International Film Festival this week to promote her new film The Invite.
But instead of the film taking center stage, the 42-year-old’s noticeably slimmer figure alarmed fans and commentators.
Images and video clips circulating online show his emaciated face, with pronounced cheekbones.
Reactions on social media ranged from “She looks exhausted” to speculation about the possible use of weight loss drugs such as Ozempic. m
Some medical professionals have even invoked the term “Ozempic face” to describe its appearance, warning of the risks of rapid weight loss.
The conversation quickly expanded into criticism of Hollywood’s unforgiving beauty standards.
Observers have noted that Wilde’s situation highlights the pressure women in the industry face to maintain a certain image, often at the expense of their well-being.
Away from the red carpet, Wilde was also spotted with ex-husband Jason Sudeikis, dropping off their children, Otis and Daisy, at school.
The former couple finalized custody arrangements in 2023 after ending their seven-year engagement in 2020.
On a personal level, Wilde reportedly began dating Caspar Jopling, the ex-husband of singer Ellie Goulding, following her split from Harry Styles.
