Brianna ‘Chickenfry’ LaPaglia claims ex Zach Bryan ‘emotionally abused’ her: ‘I’m still scared’

Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia said on Barstool Sports’ “BFFs” podcast that she rejected a $12-million offer from ex-boyfriend Zach Bryan’s team to keep quiet about their relationship. In the Thursday episode of Barstool Sports’ “BFFs” podcast, LaPaglia broke down Bryan’s alleged “narcissistic emotional abuse” as well as her decision to reject a $12-million nondisclosure agreement offered by his team — which she called “his final shot at still controlling me.” “This isn’t about drama for me,” LaPaglia told co-hosts Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards. The final offer was $12 million — what Portnoy called “life-changing money.” LaPaglia said she refused to be like women who believed “they had no other choice than to take money from you, sign their experiences away, sign what they went through away.” While LaPaglia maintained that her aim with the episode was not to “nitpick everything he’s ever done” but to “speak up for other survivors,” she recalled a few alleged examples of Bryan’s behavior. But with Barstool’s social media reach, Richards said, “it’s still getting millions of views.” “If people want to say, ‘The diss track was immature, me talking about was immature,’” LaPaglia said near the podcast’s conclusion.
