Getting messy.
If you haven’t been keeping up with the hottest drama in the genre at the moment, Zach Bryan and Brianna LaPaglia (also known as Brianna Chickenfry), have been through what can only be described as an extremely messy, public breakup. After dating for over a year, Bryan took to Instagram in October to announce that the two had split. LaPaglia would react by saying that she felt blindsided by the Instagram story, something that she was not aware it was getting posted at the time.
Over the past two weeks, the drama seemed to die down. However, that all changed yesterday when fellow BFFs host and Barstool founder, Dave Portnoy, teamed up with Josh Richards to release a diss track targeting Bryan loosely titled after Taylor Swift’s “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.”
They took an incredible amount of shots at the “Something in the Orange” singer. From likening Bryan to a Tyler Childers clone, to mentioning his alleged cheating on his ex-wife, Rose Elisabeth Madden, to seemingly confirming the rumor that Bryan was too drunk to perform at the second night of Noah Kahan’s Fenway Park show, the pair did not hold back in the slightest.
The BFFs podcast also announced that they would be airing a tell-all episode with LaPaglia telling her side of the incredibly messy breakup at 8 p.m. ET.
This led to Bryan taking to his Instagram yesterday evening to post a story with the caption, “Worlds been a bit heavy lately, new music tonight” before releasing a brand new track, “This World’s A Giant.” He then teased even more new music with another story reading, “another one tomorrow.”
Bryan took to Instagram this evening to pen a lengthy post announcing the new song, “High Road’s” release, thanking all of the people who love and support him, and who have “carried the weight” with him.
Many assumed that Bryan would stick to the fairly standard midnight eastern time release of the brand new song; however, he decided to release it at the same exact time as LaPaglia’s tell-all episode of BFFs, promptly sending the internet ablaze.
It seems like this drama is nowhere close to being done, and as the podcast continues to air as of writing, the end is nowhere in sight for Bryan and LaPaglia.
