Zach Bryan Must Be Stopped

What's going on with Zach Brian and Brianna LaPaglia

Zach Bryan is a country crooner who burst onto the mainstream country scene in 2022 with his certified-platinum single ‘Something in the Orange,’ which peaked at #10 on the Billboard Top 100 and earned him an GRAMMYS for Best Country Solo Performance. His album, ‘American Heartbreak,” debuted at #5 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and earned him three GRAMMYS for Best Country Song, Best Duo Performance and Best Country Album.

Despite his rocket launch to fame and acclaim, Zach is better known for the trail of broken hearts left in his wake; Most recently, Brianna LaPaglia of Barstool Sports. Bri, sometimes referred to by her former TikTok username, Brianna Chickenfry.

Bri and Zach were both in separate relationships when they first met at the ACM Awards in May 2023 where they took a photo together but didn’t talk for long. He later slid into her DMs and they each ended their relationships in June, fueling dating rumors immediately. She later confirmed their relationship on her podcast before the pair made their red carpet debut.

Their relationship has oftentimes been the subject of scrutiny due to Zach’s storied history (more on that later) and the suspected overlap with their previous relationships, however the couple appeared solid.
