Australian TV star looks completely unrecognisable at 2024 Emmy Awards after weight loss

Ajay Rochester looked completely unrecognisable as she attended the 2024 Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.

The former Biggest Loser host, 55, flaunted her slimmed-down figure as she arrived to the event after recently detailing her Ozempic use.

The TV presenter showed off her physique in a long sequinned gown as she posed on the red carpet with a male friend.

She accessorised her look with a black lace choker and a matching bracelet.

The TV star left her long blonde curled locks out and wore a natural makeup palette to the award’s ceremony.

Ajay was born in Sydney and rose to fame as the host of reality weight-loss television series The Biggest Loser Australia from 2006 until 2009.

She has since moved to the United States and is currently based in LA, where she works as a casting director.

Ajay recently detailed her use of controversial ‘weight loss’ drug Ozempic after struggling with her weight for several years.

Ozempic is a diabetes medication which is being sold privately for weight loss, and celebrities including Sharon Osbourne and Amy Schumer have admitted to using the drug.

Speaking with 7NEWS Spotlight in April, Ajay detailed her heartbreaking struggles with her weight as she claimed Ozempic has changed her life.

‘This drug has absolutely transformed my life. It’s not a trick. It’s not cheating. It’s medicine,’ she said.

‘Like, I was a prisoner in my body… Let the magic happen. I have a disease, like I didn’t want to die from obesity.’

She recalled facing immense pressure to look a certain way during her time hosting The Biggest Loser, which led to unhealthy eating habits.

‘The pressure was on to lose those extra kilos. When I was hosting Biggest Loser, the lightest I got was 70 kilos and I did not eat, did not eat,’ she explained.

‘I was an emaciated doll that was still apparently not thin enough.’

She heartbreakingly told how she has often been publicly humiliated over her weight and once had a milkshake thrown at her in the street.

‘I mean, people have thrown things at me in the street, like I had a milkshake thrown at me in Sydney one time, where these guys said, “yeah, you fat pig.” And threw a milkshake at me, driving past,’ she explained.
