Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia is ready for a redemption arc at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards.
A source exclusively tells Us Weekly that LaPaglia, 25, is planning to attend the Sunday, January 5, awards ceremony solo.
LaPaglia previously attended the 2024 broadcast with now-ex Zach Bryan and her then-friend Grace O’Malley. The “BFFs” podcaster and O’Malley, 26, posed on the red carpet together before meeting up with Bryan, 28, inside.
LaPaglia started dating “Something in the Orange” singer Bryan in 2023. After he announced their allegedly amicable split in October 2024, LaPaglia said on her “BFFs” podcast that she was blindsided by his decision and also claimed that Bryan disapproved of her Golden Globes outfit. (LaPaglia wore a sheer gown that featured a dramatic leg slit.)

Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia made her return to the “BFFs” podcast following her public split from Zach Bryan — and dedicated the episode to “anyone else that’s been emotionally abused” in a relationship. “The last year of my life has been the hardest year of my life dealing with the abuse from this dude,” LaPaglia, 25, […]
“He said he didn’t want to date someone that presents themselves that way,” LaPaglia claimed on her podcast in November 2024. “He ruined my night. Everything good, anything good I did for me, he made sure to ruin it for me.”

Bryan has never publicly responded to her accusations after initially announcing the breakup.

With everything I am and to anyone I let down, I am sorry. I try my best in everything. I failed people that love me and mostly myself.”
LaPaglia, meanwhile, has been candid about navigating the split — from moving out of Bryan’s home to dying her hair darker — on social media.
