Brianna ‘Chickenfry’ LaPaglia, a prominent figure at Barstool Sports, has shocked the public by claiming to have a video of her ex-boyfriend, country singer Zach Bryan, abusing her. On Sunday morning, after posting a picture of her beloved cat on social media, LaPaglia took to TikTok to warn that if Bryan continued sharing her private images and videos, she would release a video showing him “slapping me in the face.”
Although LaPaglia has yet to provide concrete evidence of the video, and it is unclear whether she truly has such footage, her threat has sparked a wave of controversy. Meanwhile, Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports and LaPaglia’s boss, publicly supported her in the comments, saying, “Post it!”—a” message LaPaglia responded to with, “I’ll send it to you.”
Brianna LaPaglia’s Serious Allegations Against Zach Bryan
In her TikTok video, LaPaglia reiterated previous accusations of emotional abuse she claims to have suffered during her relationship with Bryan. She asserts that throughout their time together, Bryan not only disrespected her but also caused her significant emotional distress. One particularly shocking incident was when Bryan allegedly “stole” her cat, Stump, out of anger, despite not having any affection for the pet.
LaPaglia said, “He doesn’t even like cats, and he didn’t like Stump, but he took him just out of spite. I miss that cat every night.” These allegations have further fueled doubts and criticism regarding Bryan’s behavior during their relationship.
The $12 Million NDA Offer
In another bombshell, LaPaglia revealed that Zach Bryan had offered her $12 million to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), hoping she would remain silent about the emotional abuse she endured during their time together. LaPaglia, however, rejected the offer, stating that no amount of money could silence her from speaking the truth.
Brianna LaPaglia, 25, better known as “Chickenfry,” gained widespread recognition through her work at Barstool Sports and her popularity on social media platforms. She is also one of the co-hosts of the podcast “BFFs,” where she shares personal stories and life insights. Before breaking up with Zach Bryan in October, LaPaglia had been in a public relationship with the country music star for over a year.
Bryan, 28, is a well-known American country singer, famous for hits like “Something in the Orange.” Despite their breakup, he has yet to publicly respond to LaPaglia’s allegations. In an Instagram story, Bryan admitted, “I’ve disappointed the people I love, and mostly myself,” referencing their split.
