Zach Bryan is being deemed a “creep” and “scary” after he seemingly mocked his ex, Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, just minutes after she posted a TikTok video.
The singer seemingly took a jab at the Barstool Sports podcaster’s post in which she said she needed to get her nails done for her upcoming reality show, “Barstool Beach House.”
LaPaglia, who also recently got announced as being part of the Season 4 cast of “Special Forces,” said she had had a tough week with “a bunch of PTSD” in her video posted Wednesday.
“I haven’t even thought about it and I don’t have my nails done, I don’t have clothes,” she said. “I’m not gonna have time to get my nails done. Let’s go to the store and see if I can find some stuff.”
Minutes after LaPaglia — who lives in NYC — posted her video, Bryan shared an Instagram Story, writing, “Anyone know the best acrylic nail tech near downtown or west village NYC.”
Bryan, who’s currently on his the Quittin’ Time Tour, appeared to be lying in bed in the selfie shot.
LaPaglia’s video received plenty of comments calling Bryan out.
“ZB asking for a nail tech in NYC within minutes of you posting this when you said you need to get your nails done is SCARY,” one comment reads.
LaPaglia “liked” a comment reading, “He just had to do something because you are excited about the Special Forces announcement. He’s so creepy.”
Yet another comment reads, “ZB’s insta is sooooo creepy. He is OBSESSED with you.”
One user warned her, “Dude his story … get a restraining order.”
LaPaglia responded to the comments, writing, “Guys, I love you sm but I have him blocked for a reason, it really does set me back seeing him. Let’s leave his face and crash outs on his own social media❤️❤️.”
Reps for Bryan did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
LaPaglia, 26, and Bryan, 29, have been trading jabs since their breakup in October 2024 after a year of dating. She accused him of emotional abuse during their relationship and alleged that he tried to get her to sign an NDA for $12 million.
On Monday, Bryan shared an Instagram Story of him burning a Barstool Sports flag. LaPaglia seemingly responded on her own Instagram Story, writing, “Nurse he’s loose again” and posting a screenshot of a web search for “how do i file a restraining order.”
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy later blasted Bryan on Thursday’s “Unnamed Show” episode over how much the singer’s alleged new girlfriend, Samantha Leonard, looks like LaPaglia.
“This guy’s an absolute psychopath,” Portnoy said. “He went and built a Brianna 2.0 in the lab. I mean, that’s insane.”
Reddit users have also called Leonard’s resemblance to LaPaglia “actually crazy” and “scary,” with one writing, “This is what Kanye [West] did to Kim [Kardashian] with Bianca [Censori]. Such loser behavior.”
