URGENT UPDATE: Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia has launched a fierce reaction to her ex-boyfriend Zach Bryan’s recent wedding to Samantha Leonard, just days after the nuptials took place. The Barstool Media personality, aged 26, took to TikTok on October 6, 2023, sharing a video lip-syncing to Taylor Swift’s hit song “Mastermind,” sparking an emotional whirlwind among her fans.
In the viral clip, LaPaglia confidently mouths the lyrics, “Checkmate, I couldn’t lose,” which sent her followers into a frenzy. One fan commented, “Bri is marked safe 📍 from the worst decision ever,” while another proclaimed, “You dodged a bullet. YOU definitely won girl!” The sentiment echoed across the comments, with many asserting that LaPaglia has only thrived since their breakup.
LaPaglia’s TikTok comes shortly after her boss, Dave Portnoy, publicly defended her following Bryan’s wedding announcement. Portnoy took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his disbelief, stating, “There ain’t no way that ain’t a Brianna robot. Ain’t no way,” referencing the striking resemblance between LaPaglia and Bryan’s new wife. He previously aired his thoughts on his podcast, questioning how Bryan could find someone so similar, labeling him as “an absolute psychopath.”
This public reaction follows a tumultuous relationship between LaPaglia and Bryan, aged 29, who dated from 2023 to 2024. After their split, LaPaglia accused Bryan of emotional abuse and revealed that he allegedly offered her $12 million to sign a non-disclosure agreement post-breakup, which she firmly rejected, calling it “blood money.”
The emotional stakes are high as LaPaglia continues to garner support from her fan base, celebrating her independence while Bryan embarks on a new chapter with Leonard. As the reactions unfold, many are left wondering how this high-profile romance will impact LaPaglia’s career and personal life moving forward.
