Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia has no regrets about refusing to sign an NDA following her breakup with Zach Bryan.
The Barstool Sports personality recently claimed that the country singer offered her $12 million to sign an NDA, ensuring that she would never publicly speak about their past relationship. (Us Weekly has reached out to Bryan’s team multiple times for comment.)
On Tuesday, February 25, TMZ approached LaPaglia, 25, at Los Angeles International Airport and asked whether she regretted not signing the document — and taking the money.
“No, no, no, no,” she told the outlet. “That’s, like, devil’s money. I don’t want someone else’s money.”

When a TMZ reporter said that $12 million was a lot of money, she replied, “Yeah, I know, but that’s OK. I’ll make my own money. Twelve million’s kind of excessive. What am I gonna do with that?”
LaPaglia was also asked about her current dating situation.
“I don’t really have time for a boyfriend,” she said, noting that she’s “too busy” to date.
She said she’d like to meet someone who’s “hardworking” and “just nice” — but he can’t be a musician, as she’ll “never” date another. When the TMZ reporter asked whether she’d consider “someone who works at Burger King,” she responded, “I’m not opposed to it. I’m not opposed to anybody at this point!”
Brianna Chickenfry Claims She Knows Which of Zach Bryan’s Exes Signed NDAs
LaPaglia and Bryan dated for a little over a year before the “Pink Skies” singer announced in October 2024 that they had split. The podcaster has since spoken out against her ex, alleging that she was emotionally abused during their relationship.
Last month, LaPaglia was hooked up to a lie detector test during an episode of her “BFFs” podcast when cohost Josh Richards questioned her about Bryan.
“Do you know if Zach’s exes signed NDAs?” Richards, 23, asked. LaPaglia replied, “Yes.”
Richards followed up by asking whether LaPaglia knew “which exes” signed the paperwork.

“I know two exes signed NDAs,” she replied, ending the conversation without naming names.
Prior to LaPaglia, Bryan was in two semi-public relationships. He married Rose Madden in 2020 but filed for divorce the following year. Bryan went public with Deb Peifer that same year. He announced their breakup in May 2023 and moved on with LaPaglia shortly afterward.
LaPaglia revealed in November 2024 that she and Madden had FaceTimed.
“I f—ing love her. I’ve never felt more seen and validated in my life,” LaPaglia said on the “BFFs” podcast at the time. “Oh, my gosh. She’s a great person.”
