Dave Portnoy is talking money.
Following Grace O’Malley’s assertion that her ex-co-host on Plan Bri Uncut, Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, was earning more than her, Dave opted to set the record straight.
The CEO of Barstool Sports expressed his discomfort in a TikTok video on January 8th, stating that he dislikes it when people give the impression they’re not being paid equitably. He further emphasized that Grace, as he mentioned earlier, has been treated appropriately.
To support his claim, the 47-year-old broke down the 26-year-old’s salary.
He mentioned that Grace was wrapping up her third year at Barstool. Her annual base salary was set at $175,000. In addition to this, she earned 70% of any sales made through her personal social media channels. Essentially, if there were advertisements like, “Grace, do this on your Instagram,” she would receive 70% of that income. As a result, Grace was projected to earn an additional $75,000 in 2024 through these means.
He went on to say, “Grace’s total earnings for the previous year were a solid $250,000.” Pausing, he added, “I believe that’s quite reasonable, quite satisfactory.
On the January 6th episode of “This Past Weekend with Theo Von” podcast, Grace (former co-host of the “Plan Bri” podcast alongside Brianna until their disagreement in December) stated that although she earned a good income, Brianna was earning more.
“But my buddy was making a little bit more,” she said. “A lot of bit more. A whole sh-t ton more.”
And according to Dave, there’s a reason Brianna was paid higher.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’d like to clarify a point from my recent video about the dynamic between Bri and Grace on our podcast. To put it simply, Bri was a more established figure, with a larger online presence and greater influence in every aspect. It’s important to note that Grace has undeniably gained immense popularity since her rise to fame. However, this growth is exactly why Bri received a higher income. When Grace joined Barstool, she had minimal following and was not yet active in the industry, which makes the financial disparity less surprising.
As a lifestyle connoisseur, I’d like to clarify my perspective on the matter. Contrary to Grace’s assertion, I must stress that I never withheld all earnings derived from our joint podcast tour with Brianna. While Barstool may have taken a significant portion, there were indeed profits shared among us.
He mentioned that they were referring to the “Brit Tour,” he explained. However, it was truly Brit’s tour. She was an integral part of it, earning a good wage, which is how we cover both Brit’s and Grace’s wages.
TopMob News has reached out to Grace for comment and has not heard back.
At the end of last year in December, Grace shared the news that she was planning to depart from Barstool Sports. Not long after her goodbyes, she disclosed that her upcoming venture would be with the podcast host, Alex Cooper, and her network called The Unwell Network.
Even though they’ve taken separate paths, Grace shared some insights about the current state of her longstanding friendship with Brianna.
She expressed, speaking to host Theo Von, that we’re currently experiencing some tough times, but she’s hopeful that one day we’ll find our way. She’s focusing on her own path, as is he, and despite this, she continues to care for him deeply, so for now, she’s playing the role of a diplomat.

In January 2024, Bobby (the one pictured second from the left) spoke up against speculations about a rift with Tan (the one in the middle), which emerged two months following his departure from the popular show, “Queer Eye,” after an impressive run of eight seasons.
He assured Vanity Fair, “Tan and I are doing well, and let me make this clear: any issue we’re dealing with is private between us, and it has no bearing on the program. It was a personal matter that had been simmering for some time now—and to set the record straight, it wasn’t romantic in nature.
By March 2024, Tan defended himself against accusations that he attempted to get his friend, Jeremiah Brent, chosen instead of Bobby, on the show “Queer Eye”.
He mentioned on Instagram that Netflix and the production companies conducted a thorough casting process. He didn’t recommend his friend for the role, as they had selected the most suitable candidate instead. However, he didn’t play a part in getting someone else fired to secure the job for his friend.
In a December 2023 episode of her podcast “Let’s Be Clear,” Holly Marie Combs, a former costar from the TV show “Charmed,” claimed that Alyssa had demanded a choice be made between herself and Shannen to a producer on the set, which eventually resulted in Shannen leaving the show in 2001.
In February 2024, Alyssa stated on Instagram, “I didn’t possess the authority to dismiss anyone,” and further added that, “Given how much time has passed since then, any recounting of these events by anyone is essentially rewriting history.
One day after, during a panel discussion at MegaCon Orlando, Shannen declared, “No one is rewriting the truth as I understand it.
In September 2023, while engaging in a game called Stir the Pot on TopMob News with her daughter Kelly Osbourne, Sharon expressed that the former That ’70s Show star was the most impolite celebrity she had ever encountered. She labeled him as “very rude” not once but four times and referred to him as a “mischievous little troublemaker.
He did not respond to her remarks publicly.
Approximately five years ago, Sharon expressed to Larry King that when Ashton appeared on “The Talk” in 2014, he displayed a certain attitude due to her mistakenly referring to him by the wrong name.
She remembered him asking, “‘Who are you? What’s your background in this field?'” to which she responded, “Listen, son, don’t challenge me because I’ll leave you speechless. You have no idea who you’re messing with.” In simpler terms, the woman recounted that he questioned her identity and experience in the industry, to which she retorted that he should be careful, as she was capable of outsmarting him easily.
In August 2022, Cassadee and Brittany, the wife of country musician Jason Aldean, exchanged sharp comments following a post by Brittany on Instagram. On August 23rd, she shared a video of herself applying makeup with the caption, “I’d like to express my gratitude to my parents for not altering my gender during my tomboy phase. I adore this feminine lifestyle.
2022 saw a TikTok challenge where JoJo Siwa labeled Candace Cameron Bure as the most unfriendly celebrity. She explained that she felt hurt when Bure declined to take a photo with her on a red carpet event earlier. However, not long after the remark, Bure expressed regret for her actions: “I inadvertently shattered your 11-year-old spirit by not snapping a picture with you. I truly am sorry about it.
Initially, there was a reconciliation between the two parties. However, several months down the line, Candace was posed a question about whether the Great American Family network, where she holds the position of chief creative officer, would portray same-sex couples as main characters in their holiday movies. She responded negatively, further stating that the network would uphold traditional marriage at its core.
In 2021, JoJo openly identified as part of the LGBTQ+ community, expressing on Instagram that the actress’ remark was both disrespectful and painful to an entire group of individuals.
In June 2021, Courtney Love claimed that Olivia Rodrigo had used Hole’s album cover design for a promotional photo without giving credit. Rodrigo responded by saying “I adore you and feel so inspired by this experience.” Later on, Courtney said, “Olivia, you’re welcome! My favorite florist is in London’s Notting Hill district; send me a message for details! I can’t wait to read your heartfelt note [wink emoticon].
During a talk show called “Watch What Happens Live,” the actor from “Happy Days” was questioned about his strained relationship with the “Forrest Gump” star during the filming of the 1989 movie “Turner & Hooch.
For 13 days, I had been in charge of that movie’s direction. Then, I was summoned to Jeff Katzenberg’s office, where he told me, “Have all your things ready? You can leave now.” He communicated this to me.
Despite the initial differences, it appeared that Winkler developed a good rapport with Hanks’ canine costar. In his own words, he shared, “We got along wonderfully, wonderfully well with that dog.” He even expressed fondness for the animal, saying, “I just love that dog.
He also refused to admit if he’s even seen the flick.
“You know what you did!”
Lovers of “The Hills” may recall the famous quote, spoken by Lauren during the season three premiere. This feud between them escalated when Heidi began dating her current spouse, Spencer Pratt, and reached its zenith when Lauren claimed that Heidi and Spencer had spread a rumor about her making a sex tape with Jason Wahler.
A long-standing disagreement between costars heated up when Tyrese criticized Dwayne Johnson on Instagram following the delay of the release date for Fast and Furious 9 to April 2020. On the same day, it was disclosed that a spinoff film featuring Dwayne and Jason Statham would premiere in 2019. A month later, Tyrese vowed to leave Fast 9 if Dwayne was involved in the movie.
Later on, Tyrese candidly discussed the dispute during an interview with Van Lathan on the podcast “The Red Pill”, stating, “As of now, I haven’t spoken to The Rock personally, but we will have a conversation.” He also mentioned that he had previously conversed with The Rock’s producing partner, but not the actor himself.
Tyrese admitted that he took on the role of delivering messages for several individuals connected to the franchise. However, he was the only one who chose to express those sentiments publicly, and he acknowledges that this was his own mistake. He considers his actions as unprofessional and inappropriate.
No more bad blood here.
For many years, Taylor and Katy were embroiled in a long-standing disagreement, with some suggesting that it was the inspiration behind Taylor’s song “Bad Blood.” The conflict, which apparently began over a backup dancer and rival tours, finally came to an end when Perry extended an olive branch, quite literally, to Taylor before her Reputation Tour started.
Taylor shared on Instagram, “Just found a real olive branch in my dressing room, it means a lot to me.
Taylor captioned the video, “Thank you Katy.”
For quite some time, speculations of a rift between co-stars Kim and Sarah Jessica Parker in the show “Sex and the City” had been dismissed. However, these whispers resurfaced when Kim opted out of appearing in a third film and made remarks about her fellow actor that left many questioning their relationship.
Andy Cohen inquired about Sarah Jessica Parker’s response when Kim Cattrall stated they were merely colleagues, not friends, during an episode of Watch What Happens Live that aired in September 2017.
She expressed her feelings as, “I am utterly heartbroken. We talked about it for an entire week, and it was distressing for me because my memory of our shared experience isn’t the same as what’s being presented now.
She expressed, “It’s unfortunate, but somehow, it feels like our shared unique encounter is what binds us most. It was a professional relationship, yet over the course of numerous years, it evolved into something personal. I can only hope that this long-term bond overshadows any more recent discussions.” She added, “Spending so much time engaged in something so meaningful and significant to others is truly a rare privilege.
And though they didn’t film scenes together, Kim did make a small appearance on And Just Like That.
Since 2004, the renowned singers have been engaged in a longstanding dispute. During the Q Awards of that year where he received the Classic Songwriter Award, Elton John expressed his dissent to the audience, stating, “Madonna being hailed as the best live performer? I strongly disagree! When has miming on stage constitute as live performance? Apologies for my language, but I believe anyone who mimes in public, especially when people pay around 75 pounds to watch them, should be criticized.
In 2008, the actress who once played a leading role on “Grey’s Anatomy” ignited a dispute with the show’s creator. This happened when she decided not to be considered for Emmy Awards due to feeling that the scripts provided didn’t merit a nomination.
Later on, Shonda discussed Katherine’s choice during an interview with Oprah Winfrey on ‘Oprah’s Next Chapter’ in 2012. She stated, “On one hand it hurt, and on the other hand I wasn’t shocked. When people reveal their true selves to you, take them at their word. That’s a saying I live by, and it has been beneficial for me.”
At the Harper’s Bazaar Icon party during New York Fashion Week, a high-profile argument between Nicki and Cardi made headlines worldwide. A few weeks later, Cardi revealed what led to the confrontation with Nicki.
Cardi mentioned in W magazine’s Art Issue that for some time now, she’s been receiving a lot of critical remarks from someone. She had spoken to this person on two occasions and reached an agreement, but the person continued their attacks.
The genuine source of the conflict between them ignited when Cardi noticed that Nicki appeared to have liked and subsequently un-liked a tweet criticizing Cardi’s parenting abilities, something that Nicki has since refuted.
As a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: “I was on track to amass a fortune from my Bruno Mars tour, yet I chose to prioritize my daughter instead. I cherish her deeply; I’m not just a good mom, but an exceptional one. It’s baffling for those who haven’t experienced parenthood to judge such a decision. People often argue that the party wasn’t the ideal time or place, but I won’t criticize another artist in public, let alone encounter them at the grocery store or nearby.
The strained relationship between Kanye West and Taylor Swift initially arose back in 2009 during her VMA acceptance speech, when Kanye interrupted her to express his admiration for another artist. Despite reconciling and forming a friendship at a later point, their bond was shattered once more following the release of Kanye’s song “Famous,” which included references to Taylor Swift.
“I don’t know her.”
The ongoing dispute between Mariah and J.Lo dates back more than 15 years. The conflict began when Mariah, known as the Queen of Christmas, was questioned about various singers in an interview. When asked for her thoughts on Jennifer, Mariah responded, “I’m not familiar with her.
