After hearing that phrase many fans were concerned with the health of Jeff Ross.

In addition to that, Jeff was wearing a dashing blue tux, which made him look like he had gone through a weight loss.

Many actors in Hollywood are using Ozempic to lose weight. Furthermore, it is mainly used to treat Type 2 diabetes.

But, the truth is Jeff Ross does not have diabetes, nor has he achieved any weight loss. It was just a choice of fashion that made him look a bit thinner.

And the phrase used by Nikki Glaser was nothing but a joke to roast Ross.

That doesn’t mean he isn’t dealing with some form of illness.

It wasn’t a fashion choice, though. The truth is he is suffering from an illness named Alopecia Areata.

While writing about it in Los Angeles Magazine, he revealed that it started during one summer when a clump of hair fell in his hands.

Out of fear, he immediately went to the doctor to see what was wrong with him. Then, the doctor revealed that he was suffering from Alopecia.

Alopecia isn’t life-threatening, but for a public persona like Ross, it surely is heartbreaking.

Within a matter of a few weeks, he lost all his hair, including his eyebrows and eyelashes.

But our Jeff is a fighter; he didn’t let his lifelong illness bring him down. In fact, he started making fun of it with the hope that someday, the stigma surrounding this disease would be over.
