Dave Portnoy shades Zach Bryan after split from Brianna Chickenfry

He just wants to know if the goal was to rust their glittering summer.

Dave Portnoy invoked Taylor Swift while shading Zach Bryan in support of his recently fired “BFFs” podcast co-host Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia.

Portnoy, a vocal Swiftie, posted the lyric video for Swift's infectious breakup song “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” to X on Tuesday, shortly after Bryan announced his split from LaPaglia.

“I dedicate this to @BChickenfry,” the 47-year-old Barstool Sports founder captioned the YouTube link.

In the powerful ballad from this year's album “Tortured Poets Department,” Swift, 34, sings about an ex-boyfriend while wondering how authentic their public relationship was behind closed doors.

Portnoy shared the pointed message just moments after Bryan, 28, confirmed that he and LaPaglia, 25, had called it quits — an announcement that she was reportedly “blindsided” by.

“Brianna and I have separated (sic) and I respect and love her from the bottom of my heart,” the “Something in the Orange” singer wrote on his Instagram Story on Tuesday. “She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and I will always thank her for that.”

Bryan further wrote cryptically that he's “personally had an incredibly tough year and has battled through some pretty tough things.”

“I thought it would be beneficial for both of us if we went different ways,” he added. “I am not perfect and never will be.”

Shortly after, LaPaglia posted her own statement on her Instagram Story, which read in part: “Hey guys, I'm feeling really blindsided right now. “I'm going to stay off social media for a while and try to heal privately.”

The internet personality then posted an emotional YouTube video in which she sat on the bathroom floor and cried over her “heartbreaking” breakup.

“I just woke up when Zach posted on his Instagram that we broke up and I had no idea that post was going to blow up,” she claimed. “He didn’t text me, he didn’t call me.”

LaPaglia alluded to some of her relationship issues by asking her followers, “How can you give someone everything and love them so unconditionally through things you shouldn't do… and then throw them away in a few days?”

The exes first sparked breakup rumors on Monday when Reddit users posted screenshots of Bryan's profile on celebrity dating app Raya.

The “PlanBri Uncut” podcaster added fuel to the fire by sharing a heartfelt poem she wrote on Instagram that read, in part, “Someday you'll realize that life goes on / Even if you don't want it to.” “

A source exclusively told Page Six on Tuesday that Bryan and LaPaglia were “crazy about each other, but their relationship was always rocky.”

“His lifestyle is not conducive to a serious relationship,” the insider told us.

The couple began dating in July 2023 and made their red carpet debut at the 2024 Grammys in February.
