Model Brooks Nader recently shared that a weight loss medication – specifically, a GLP-1 drug – has helped her career thrive. While her sisters have expressed concerns, she admits she feels dependent on it.
The 28-year-old model, known for her bold style, recently admitted she still uses the substance, saying she knows she needs to stop, in an interview with Bustle.
She directly admitted that her career improved significantly after starting GLP-1 medication. While she doesn’t endorse or justify its use for everyone, she personally lost 30 pounds and subsequently landed all the roles she auditioned for. She acknowledges that results vary from person to person.
Brooks’ career took off in 2019 when she was featured in Sports Illustrated. Just four years later, in 2023, she graced the magazine’s cover.
She explained how she handled being passed over for jobs, detailing the steps she took to get back on track.
She shared that if she didn’t land a job, she’d ask her agency for client feedback. The feedback she received was that she needed to lose 30 pounds, but she wasn’t upset by it. She doesn’t dwell on negativity, instead focusing on how to address the issue: ‘They want me to lose weight, so how can I make that happen?’
In December 2024, Brooks publicly shared that she had used Ozempic after her sister playfully mentioned it on TikTok.
Last year, the former Dancing With the Stars contestant admitted to using it, explaining that his sisters had gotten in trouble for revealing his involvement to DailyMail.com.
‘I tried it out when it first came out, and I liked it, I can’t lie,’ she confessed at the time.
Brooks also discussed her difficulties with body image while filming the Freeform series, Love Thy Nader, alongside her siblings.
After nearly fainting during a workout, she revealed she had been using GLP-1 medications, and her family expressed concern for her health following this disclosure in the seventh episode of the show, as she attributed her symptoms to the drugs.
As a longtime follower, it really struck me when Mary Holland talked about seeing all the needles. She explained it perfectly – just seeing them all together made her realize how far her sister has gone with this, and how many different doctors and pharmacies are involved. It’s a scary thought, and it really highlighted the seriousness of the situation for me.
‘That’s dangerous. She’s overprescribed. This amount is so concerning.’
On the show, Brooks discussed using a weight loss medication, saying she usually takes a very small dose. However, with an upcoming event where she expects to be wearing revealing clothing, she plans to increase the dose to help her look her best.
The beauty shared what surprised her the most about opening up about her ‘crutch’ on the series.
She told Bustle that she was surprised by how many people contacted her to admit they were also using GLP-1 medications. Many expressed feeling ashamed to discuss it, fearing judgment, and admitted relying on the drugs as a temporary fix.
I’m still relying on it, and honestly, it’s become a habit I need to break. I know it’s not good for me, and I really should stop.
The influencer shared that she’s had several cosmetic procedures, including veneers, a nose job, salmon sperm facials, and a Botox treatment to lift her neck.
Before speaking with Bustle about her use of the GLP-1 drug – initially designed for people with diabetes – Brooks had temporarily stopped taking it.
The break was a result of her performing on Dancing With The Stars in 2024.
She told DailyMail in December that it was physically draining and left her feeling exhausted, so she needed to take a break.
However, the Dolce & Gabbana model said going back on it wasn’t out of the question.
‘I mean, never say never… [but] as of right now, no,’ she said.
‘[If I] keep staying healthy and working out, hopefully I won’t have to,’ she added.
