The Misery icon, 76, showed off her trim frame and youthful updo on the red carpet – before joining Twisters star Anthony Ramos, 33, to present the Best Supporting Actress – TV award to Baby Reindeer’s Jessica Gunning, 38.
However fans quickly expressed concern for the Oscar winner during the presentation.
One wrote: ‘What’s going on with Kathy Bates is she ok.’
Another typed: ‘Is Kathy Bates ill?’ while others typed: ‘On a side note, Kathy Bates looks like she needs to slow down on the Ozempic.
‘Hope Kathy Bates Is Ok…Did Anyone Else Notice That Her Entire Body Was Shaking & She had To Hold Onto Her Co- Presenter To Steady Herself?’

However other fans praised the star for her glamorous look and branded her ‘sexy.’
The star is nominated in the Best Actress – Drama category for Matlock.
It comes not long after Bates opened up about her weight loss journey and broke her silence on Ozempic speculation.
Over the past seven years, the star dropped a total of 80lbs after focusing on a healthier lifestyle, and lost an additional 20lbs after using Ozempic.
During an interview with People in October, she expressed, ‘There’s been a lot of talk that I just was able to do this because of Ozempic.’
‘But I have to impress upon people out there that this was hard work for me, especially during the pandemic. It’s very hard to say you’ve had enough.’
She was inspired to put her health first after being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes back in 2017.
The 2025 Golden Globe Awards, hosted by Emmy-nominated comedian Nikki Glaser, are taking place at The Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles.

The Hollywood legend features among this years nominees, with her role in Matlock earning a place in the category for Best Television Female Actor in a Drama Series
Wicked’s Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo and musical drama Emilia Perez lead the nominations.
Jacques Audiard’s surreal narco-thriller musical about a Mexican drug lord who transitions to life as a woman led the nominations with 10, as the race to the Oscars heats up.
The genre-defying film stars transgender actress Karla Sofia Gascon as the title character, along with actress-singer Selena Gomez and Zoe Saldana in supporting roles.
All three are up for prizes for the Golden Globes, set for January 5, which are widely seen as a bellwether for the Academy Awards.
Smash hit Wicked, the movie adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, earned four nominations, including one apiece for pop sensation Grande and Tony award winner Erivo.
Grande – earning her first ever Golden Globe nomination – features in the category for Best Supporting Female Actor – Motion Picture, courtesy of her role as Galinda Upland in the fantasy drama.
The versatile star will compete alongside close friend Selena Gomez for her role in Emilia Perez, and Margaret Qualley, who won universally positive reviews for body shock horror The Substance.
Isabella Rossellini also features for her role in Concave, as does Zoe Saldana – again, for Emilia Perez.
Ahead of the nominations, Variety senior awards editor Clayton Davis suggested organisers should save the last three categories of the night for comedy-musical honours, especially lead actress, which he called “the bloodbath category.”
He could be right, with Erivo, Emilia Perez star Karla Sofia Gascon and Anora star Mikey Madison battling for the lead actress prize with perennial awards favorite Amy Adams for Nightb***h. Demi Moore for The Substance and Challengers star Zendaya.
Wicked also receives a nod for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement with hit films Deadpool & Wolverine, Twisters, Inside Out 2, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and the surprisingly overlooked Gladiator II.
Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist is among the contenders for Best Motion Picture Drama, while Adam Brody and British star Felicity Jones scored acting nods alongside Guy Pearce for supporting.
