Brianna LaPaglia has gotten her revenge on her ex.

LaPaglia debuted her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit as a cover model for the January 2025 digital issue.

Sports Illustrated previously asked the Barstool Sports personality to host the red carpet at the magazine’s 60th anniversary celebration, but she did not take the job.

According to her new cover story, she turned it down because her boyfriend at the time, country singer Zach Bryan, told her not to do it.

For those unaware, Brianna LaPaglia is a popular Barstool Sports podcast personality who co-hosts with Dave Portnoy, Barstool’s founder.

Zach Bryan is a prolific country musician.

The 2-year-old podcast host is now getting her revenge.

“It is just, on a petty level, my favorite f— you,” she told Sports Illustrated in the interview titled “Brianna LaPaglia is Not Asking for Anyone’s Permission.”

She added, “This is me, and I wanted to do this, and now I’m on the digital cover.”

Brianna LaPaglia And Zach Bryan Had A Nasty Split Over Cheating Allegations

There was a lot of drama unfolding with Zach Bryan’s public split with Brianna “Chickenfry” Lapaglia.

LaPaglia revealed in November 2024 that she and Bryan were once planning to get married before their nasty breakup. He even picked out an engagement ring when they were still together.

LaPaglia then claimed her “biggest celeb crush” messaged her, but she turned them down, only to find out later that Bryan had allegedly been “cheating the whole time lol.”

“The week he showed me my engagement ring he was DMing girls hahahahha,” the influencer then added, according to the Daily Mail.

Brianna LaPaglia even spoke on an incident in New Hampshire where Bryan “stood up at the fire and started screaming at my friends, ‘You’re not going to be anything, you’re a f—king loser,’” throwing out insults like, “‘You’re never going to make it,’ and ‘You live off other people.’”

“Just out of nowhere. I’m like, ‘What the hell?’ But when Zach’s in this zone, there’s no stopping it.”

I think it’s safe to say these two should stay away from each other.

Eagles Fan Ryan Caldwell Finally Breaks His Silence After Getting Fired From Job & Permanently Banned From Lincoln Financial Field For Verbally Abusing Female Packers Fan

Ryan Caldwell, the Philadelphia Eagles fan who went viral for cruelly verbally abusing Green Bay Packers fan Ally Keller during Sunday’s Wild Card Round game, has broken his silence on the incident.

Keller attended the game at Lincoln Financial Field with her fiancé, Alexander Basara. The latter shared a viral video of Ryan Caldwell verbally abusing Keller and using derogatory language towards her.

The Eagles have since announced that Caldwell has received a lifetime ban from home games. He was also fired from his job as a project manager at the BCT Partners consulting firm.

Speaking to Jenna Lemoncelli of the New York Post, Ryan Caldwell expressed remorse for his actions and apologized to Keller. He also claims that the video shared by Basara doesn’t provide the entire “context” of their verbal altercation:

“While attending an NFL game last Sunday to support my beloved Philadelphia Eagles, an incident occurred that I deeply regret. What began as banter with two Packers fans sitting near me escalated to something more serious, and I said things that were unacceptable. In the heat of the moment, I chose unforgiving words to address one of the fans, Ms. Ally Keller.

I want to sincerely apologize to Ms. Keller for those words, and to my wife, family, and friends, my former employer and colleagues, Packer fans, Eagle fans, the Philadelphia Eagles, the City of Philadelphia, and all who were offended.

That said, there are two sides to every story. The video clip circulating online does not reflect the full context of what transpired, and my actions were not without provocation. I will live with this experience, and I am certainly paying a personal price. For those who don’t know me, this incident does not reflect my values or the respect I have for others and is not indicative of the person I am.”
