Zach Bryan’s Ex Brianna LaPaglia Lists Qualities She’s Looking For in a New Boyfriend: ‘Height, Hair, Kindness’

On Sunday’s Golden Globes red carpet, media personality Brianna LaPaglia (a.k.a. Brianna Chickenfry) spoke to Us Weekly about what characteristics she’s looking for in a potential new romantic partner, and LaPaglia appeared to throw a little shade at her ex, “I Remember Everything” hitmaker Zach Bryan, with her response.

“Height, hair and kindness,” she listed.

The now-single LaPaglia noted to the outlet that she’s in a happy place at the moment, saying, “I’m doing good. I’m doing well, I’m doing well. I feel like myself again. It’s good to be back here. Like last year, I was in a bad spot when I was here and now, I’m in a good spot. I’m just excited to be here and I’m like, ‘Where’s the champagne?’ Let me have some fun.”

LaPaglia also noted that she recently filmed an episode with her BFFs podcast co-host Josh Richards and that the two had made a bet that LaPaglia can’t have a new romantic partner until mid-2025 — and that she’s not looking to quickly return to the dating scene.

“Dating looks like a dark hole that I don’t want to jump into,” LaPaglia said. “Actually, we made a bet on the first episode of BFFs: I’m not allowed to have a boyfriend until summer. … June 21st. He doesn’t think I can do it. I think I can do it. I have no boyfriends.”

Bryan and LaPaglia began dating in 2023 and made their debut together on the Grammys red carpet in February 2024.

In October, Bryan confirmed the couple’s split. Shortly after their split, LaPaglia opened up in a BFFs episode about her experience following the 2024 Golden Globes, where she wore a sparkly, golden-hued gown with a high slit. During that BFFs episode, LaPaglia alleged that she and Bryan argued after the Golden Globes, noting Bryan apparently “didn’t like” her choice of outfit to that year’s ceremony.

“He said he didn’t want to date someone that presents themselves that way. And he unfollowed me, he unfollowed everyone. … When I flew home — I flew home after the Golden Globes. He ruined my night,” she said. “He’s like happy in the beginning, then all of a sudden it turns to, ‘I can’t believe you’re wearing this, blah blah blah blah.’ It ruins the night. I’m crying to Grace [O’Malley] the whole f—ing night, and he unfollows me because of the dress. He tells me all the Instagram pictures that I have to delete, and I’m like, ‘OK, yeah, I guess.’ He makes me believe that I have to change my image to keep up with his or something.”

Billboard has reached out to Bryan’s camp for comment.
