After the tennis legend showed off her abs in new gym selfies on Instagram, some fans criticized Williams for looking unrecognizable and like she's been taking Ozempic—and were quickly shut down by other fans.

Largely because of social media, it's becoming increasingly hard to know what is real, honest, and authentic. This includes people's appearances, weight and physique, and what they did to reach the look they've achieved.

Throughout this summer, people have been commenting on Serena Williams' Instagram posts, accusing her of losing too much weight and even of using Ozempic.

While Williams has been touring Europe and dropping hints about potentially returning to tennis, there have been a mix of comments expressing excitement for her travel stories and tennis journey.

But there are also always comments that look like these:

In a recent post, however, Williams showed the hard work she's been putting in at the gym, especially with increased weight training, and the former tennis pro is sporting serious ab definition and a snatched physique.

You can see the post here:

After seeing this series of selfies, true Serena fans had heard enough of the hate and speculation and came to her rescue in her comments section.

Though there is obviously nothing wrong with using Ozempic or other pharmaceuticals to assist in weight loss, there's something demoralizing and dismissive about reducing all of a person's hard work to the use of a drug.

In their eyes, Williams clearly has big goals ahead of her that she's preparing for, and in true Serena fashion, she was not afraid to put in the work—and these gym selfies served as proof.

Williams clearly does not need to be rescued by anyone, especially from her own comments section, but it was heartening to see how many people were willing to defend her hard work.

Again, there's nothing wrong with Ozempic! But accusing someone of using it on the sly and lying about it is dismissive and rude.

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez played coy with reporters after learning that Vice President JD Vance believes she's the frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028.

Although many voters have floated Ocasio-Cortez as a possible contender, she has yet to announce any plans to run. According to polling averages compiled by 270toWin, she ranks fourth among prospective Democratic candidates, trailing former Vice President Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

Trump Blasted After Warning Gas Stations To Drop Prices 'Immediately' In Threatening Social Media Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after telling gas retailers that they need to lower their prices to $2.50 per gallon "immediately" or face "big problems," prompting many critics to suggest he is panicking as discontent toward his administration grows amid fallout over the Iran war and a nationwide affordability crisis.

A recent Gallup poll found that 55 percent of respondents felt their finances were worsening, a level of pessimism exceeding that seen during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2008 financial crisis. This comes as the highly unpopular war in Iran continues to rage, sending gas prices surging. Americans have spent an additional $59 billion on fuel since Trump launched the war.

For a franchise about a toy cowboy, a delusional space ranger, and a potato with removable facial features, Toy Story has never been particularly concerned with strict realism. Yet somehow, a mixed-race child with curly hair in Toy Story 5 is what sent parts of MAGA into full meltdown mode.

In the latest installment of Pixar's beloved franchise, audiences are introduced to Blaze Manoukian, a young girl who lives on a farm, loves animals, and becomes an important part of Bonnie's story. Blaze is also Disney's first half-Black, half-Armenian character.

John Oliver Epically Drags Jesse Watters For Sharing Unverified Video Of Alleged Reflecting Pool Vandals On Fox News

Last Week Tonight host John Oliver mocked Fox News host Jesse Watters for sharing unverified video of alleged "vandals" of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and claiming that liberal media would claim that the people who were seen reaching into the pool "dropped their wedding ring."

The renovation of the Reflecting Pool has become a debacle, marked by recurring algae blooms, workers resorting to pouring hydrogen peroxide into the water to combat the problem, and a political blame game in which some Republicans have attempted to pin responsibility for the mess on Democrats.
