At the 83rd Golden Globe Awards on Sunday evening, Melissa McCarthy turned heads with her noticeably slimmer appearance. The 55-year-old actress, who has shed approximately 95 pounds, made a striking impression in a sleek black gown designed by Christian Siriano.
Adding a touch of elegance, McCarthy’s dress featured a series of gold accents running down the front. She completed her glamorous look with long diamond earrings and a gold clutch purse, exuding sophistication on the red carpet.
During the awards ceremony, McCarthy joined forces with Kathryn Hahn to present the award for Best Female Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology, or Made-for-Television Movie. The accolade went to Michelle Williams for her role in “Dying For Sex.”
Accompanying McCarthy was her longtime husband, Ben Falcone. The couple, who share two teenage daughters, Vivian, 18, and Georgette, 16, seemed to enjoy the evening’s festivities together.
Fans were quick to express their admiration for McCarthy’s transformation on social media platform X. “Wow, I have never seen her that slender before,” one fan commented, while another noted, “She getting skinny 4 sure.”

McCarthy has been open about her weight fluctuating up and down over the years.
And when it comes to her recent weight loss, it is estimated that the star has lost anywhere from 75lbs to 95lbs.
‘I’ll be up, I’ll be down, probably for the rest of my life,’ she told Refinery29 back in 2019.
‘The thing is, if that is the most interesting thing about me, I need to go have a lavender farm in Minnesota and give this up. There has to be something more.’
McCarthy previously talked about not rushing when it comes to losing weight during an appearance on Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM in 2018, per Today.

‘What’s the hurry? I think everybody’s always kind of working on something. And I was like, “If I can de-stress and just do it slower and stop constantly trying to be on something.”‘
She added, ‘And then it actually worked better instead of being like, “I’m gonna not do this and do this and only drink this.”‘
The Ghostbusters actress also expressed at the time, ‘After I had kids, I was just like, “I have to be realistic. It’s not gonna go fast.” But I mean, I feel great.’
While filming the 2015 movie Spy, McCarthy talked about keeping up with workouts to train for her role in the action comedy, such as strength training.
The star also enjoys Piloxing ((Pilates + boxing) and tennis.
