NEED TO KNOW
- Alabama Barker addressed body-shaming comments in a July 30 TikTok video

Alabama Barker is firing back at body-shamers.
The 22-year-old said she plans to take a GLP-1 medication in response to comments about her appearance. “This is not very role model of me, but I’m gonna get on the highest dose of Ozempic,” she said in a TikTok on Thursday, July 30. The GLP-1 drug is an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes — and has transformed the weight-loss landscape and become increasingly popular.
“I’m going to become so skinny, you’re gonna tell me I need a burger, because the way that people body shame me is f—ing disgusting,” she said.
Alabama, daughter of Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler, continued, “I f—ing hate you guys, and I’m gonna get so skinny. F— you. No ass, no tits, 2027. Bye.
Alabama has previously responded to critiques about her appearance. In February 2024, she addressed claims she had undergone cosmetic surgery. “I’m natural, besides my lips, accept the fact I’m naturally beautiful,” Alabama said at the time.
Months prior, in August 2023, she responded to “catfish” comments, saying in a TikTok video that she had an autoimmune disease and a thyroid problem, causing her weight to fluctuate. She added that she hoped any young girls watching her video would not ever “think there’s something wrong with [gaining weight].”
In April 2024, she reiterated that she hasn’t had cosmetic work done to her body. “Let’s stop assuming, not saying I never would, but just not in this moment have I had anything done,” she said in her Instagram Stories at the time, per a screen grab captured by Page Six.
“I’d be lying if I said it doesn’t hurt, but it’s not something I can control,” Alabama wrote over a video of herself. “The best thing I can do is just ignore it and realize how blessed and loved I am.”

Previously, Moakler opened up about her own experience with the medications.
Speaking to PEOPLE in 2024, she shared that she decided to take the GLP-1 Mounjaro following the death of her parents. “I was in a very, very dark place. I stopped dieting. I stopped exercising. I just ate like s—. I was so devastated, and I missed my f—ing mom and dad,” Moakler said. “I was like, ‘I’m going to f—ing eat the pain away.”
Her mother Gail died in January 2023, followed shortly by the death of her father, John W. Moakler III, just seven months later. “I was sad. And I just missed my parents so much,” she said.
