Brianna LaPaglia Breaks Her Silence: The Shocking Truth Behind Her Fallout with Grace O’Malley!

Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia‘s message is getting put on the back burner. 

In a candid conversation, the host of the “BFFs” podcast openly discussed her true feelings regarding the persistent rift with her childhood friend, Grace O’Malley. She expressed that she feels disheartened because their ongoing disagreement has overshadowed her attempts to shed light on harmful relationships, particularly in response to her breakup with ex-partner Zach Bryan.

In an interview with Sports Illustrated on January 15, Brianna expressed her frustration that it was distracting from the significance of her work, which involves helping people heal, and providing support for them during difficult times.

As a fervent admirer, I can’t help but echo the experiences shared by Brianna, who bravely accused Zach of emotionally abusing her during our one-year love story that concluded in October 2024. Just like countless others, she has been flooded with messages since disclosing her heartbreaking breakup, seeking her guidance on similar situations.

During my toughest moments, I found one of the most fulfilling experiences yet: assisting others in ways that seem more significant than my previous work,” the 25-year-old shared. “I understand that sharing lighthearted content and entertaining videos can be beneficial, providing an escape from reality, but to genuinely impact lives by openly supporting them and offering a comforting presence—it’s indescribably amazing.

Despite the negative backlash from her conflict with Grace, Brianna’s praise has been largely overshadowed, causing her enthusiasm for the impending TikTok ban scheduled for January 19th in the U.S. to grow.

Brianna’s ongoing dispute with Grace has led to a lot of criticism, which has mostly overshadowed the positive feedback she usually gets. This has made her quite excited about TikTok’s proposed ban in the U.S., which will take effect on January 19th.

All three suggestions convey the original meaning while being more natural and easy to read.

In her words, “Brianna expressed that she feels similar to popping a champagne bottle and getting rid of this terrible, loathsome application.

Following the split with Zach, who has not commented on Brianna’s accusations of emotional abuse, Brianna announced that she and Grace were temporarily pausing their joint podcast, “Plan Bri Uncut,” due to a disagreement in their friendship.

She expressed to co-host Josh Richards and former co-host Dave Portnoy during the December 2024 episode of their “BFFs” podcast that she couldn’t carry on with the podcast any longer because they were acting as if they were friends. She simply didn’t feel recognized by her anymore. She felt it was necessary to establish a boundary, saying, “I can’t keep up with this show anymore.

Brianna traced the break in their friendship back to her experiences with Zach, stating, “Being in an abusive relationship can affect other relationships, too – it messes with friendships.

She had a lot of personal experience with it, she explained. She empathized with my situation and it was undeniably extremely challenging for her. From the beginning, she didn’t like him at all.

After securing a contract with Alex Cooper’s Unwell Network following her exit from Barstool Sports in December, Grace hasn’t disclosed the specific reasons for the breakdown of their 15-year friendship, but she remains optimistic that they might reconcile someday.

On the January 6th edition of the This Past Weekend with Theo Von podcast, she expressed that we’re currently facing some tough times, but she’s optimistic that we’ll find a solution eventually. She’s focused on her path and so am I, yet despite that, I continue to hold affection for her, so at the moment, I’m trying to navigate this situation diplomatically.

In January 2024, two months following his departure from the show “Queer Eye” after eight seasons, Bobby (depicted second from left) refuted speculation about a rift with Tan (in the middle), addressing these rumors publicly.

He assured Vanity Fair that both he and Tan are doing well, despite a private matter they’re dealing with. This issue is unrelated to the show, as it stemmed from a long-standing personal issue – and to set the record straight, it wasn’t romantic in nature.

By March 2024, Tan found himself addressing claims that he actively advocated for his friend, Jeremiah Brent, to take over Bobby’s role on “Queer Eye”.

He stated on Instagram that Netflix and the production companies conducted extensive auditions, but he didn’t recommend his friend for the role. They ultimately got the part because they were most suitable for it, not because someone else was removed.

In a December 2023 episode of her podcast “Let’s Be Clear,” Holly Marie Combs, a former co-star on the TV series “Charmed” with Shannen, claimed that Alyssa had given an ultimatum to a show producer, stating they had to pick between herself and Shannen. This alleged action is said to have contributed to Shannen’s departure from the show in 2001.

In February 2024, Alyssa asserted on Instagram that she didn’t possess the ability to terminate anyone’s employment and further stated that the recounting of such incidents at a later date by anyone could be considered a reinterpretation or distortion of historical events.

The following day, during a panel discussion at MegaCon Orlando, Shannen declared, “I’m not aware of any reinterpretation of history occurring within the truth as I understand it.

In September 2023, while engaging in a game titled “Stir the Pot” on TopMob News with her daughter Kelly Osbourne, Sharon remarked that Kelly’s co-star from That ’70s Show was the most impolite celebrity she had ever encountered. She labeled him as a “very rude boy” on multiple occasions and a “wretched little thing.

He did not respond to her remarks publicly.

Approximately five years ago, Sharon shared with Larry King that when Ashton made an appearance on “The Talk” in 2014, he displayed an unfriendly demeanor following her mistake of his name.

She remembered him asking, “‘Who are you and what is your background in this field?'” to which she responded, “Boy, don’t test me, or I’ll outsmart you so badly, it will be like I consumed you and then discarded you.” Essentially, she told him that he didn’t understand the situation.

In August of 2022, Cassadee and Maren found themselves in a heated exchange with Brittany, the spouse of country musician Jason Aldean, following Brittany’s Instagram post on August 23rd, where she showcased her makeup application process. In her caption, she expressed gratitude to her parents for not altering her gender during her tomboy phase, stating that she cherishes her feminine lifestyle.

In the course of a popular TikTok challenge in 2022, JoJo Siwa labeled Candace Cameron Bure as the most unfriendly celebrity she had encountered. She explained that her feelings were hurt when Bure declined to take a photo with her on a red carpet event. However, not long after this remark, the actress from Full House extended an apology: “I must have shattered your 11-year-old spirit by not taking a picture with you. I’m really sorry about that.

Initially, they reconciled their differences. However, several months passed, and Candace was questioned about whether the Great American Family network, where she holds the position of chief creative officer, would showcase same-sex couples as main characters in holiday films. She responded negatively, stating that the network will uphold traditional marriage as its central theme.

JoJo, who publicly identified as part of the LGBTQ+ community last year, expressed on Instagram that the actress’ remark was “disrespectful and painful to an entire group of individuals.

In June 2021, Courtney Love claimed that Olivia Rodrigo had imitated Hole’s album cover in a promotional shot without acknowledging the source. Rodrigo replied with “I adore you and draw so much inspiration from this experience.” To which Courtney responded playfully, “Olivia, consider it a favor. My preferred florist is situated in Notting Hill, London! Feel free to message me for details! I eagerly await reading your letter [winking face emoji].

During a chat on “Watch What Happens Live”, the actor from “Happy Days” was queried 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 directing the movie. Then, I was summoned to Jeff Katzenberg’s office, where he told me, “Have all your things ready? Go home,” he stated.

In a contrasting manner, it appeared as though Winkler developed a strong bond with Hanks’ canine colleague. He expressed his feelings by saying, “We had a fantastic rapport; I adore that dog.

He also refused to admit if he’s even seen the flick. 

“You know what you did!”

Followers of “The Hills” might recall the memorable phrase spoken by Lauren during the season three opener, a line that marked the beginning of their heated dispute. The disagreement escalated when Heidi started dating her current spouse, Spencer Pratt, and reached its zenith when Lauren alleged that Heidi and Spencer had initiated a rumor suggesting she had made a sex tape with Jason Wahler.

As a die-hard fanatic, I can’t help but express my feelings about the latest turn of events in the Fast and Furious saga. The day after Fast and Furious 9’s release date got bumped to April 2020, Tyrese took to Instagram to call out none other than Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. In a surprising twist, it was also announced that a Fast and Furious spinoff featuring Dwayne and Jason Statham would grace our screens in 2019! The drama didn’t end there; just a month later, Tyrese threatened to walk away from Fast 9 if the mighty Johnson was still part of it.

Later on, Tyrese spoke candidly about the disagreement, revealing to Van Lathan on “The Red Pill” podcast that he hasn’t talked to Dwayne Johnson, also known as The Rock, up until now, but they will have a discussion. He mentioned that he had a chat with The Rock’s producing partner, but not the actor personally.

In a role as a representative for several individuals connected to the business, I unintentionally became the one to express these sentiments openly. It turns out that was an error on my part. It’s inappropriate and not the right move.

No more bad blood here.

For many years, Taylor and Katy were embroiled in a long-standing dispute, with Taylor’s song “Bad Blood” seemingly reflecting this animosity. The reported cause of the disagreement was over a backup dancer and competing tours. However, the tension was resolved when Perry extended an olive branch to Taylor ahead of her Reputation Tour launch.

In an Instagram video, Taylor expressed, “I’ve just discovered a real olive branch in my dressing room, and it means a great deal.

Taylor captioned the video, “Thank you Katy.”

For many years, speculations about a rift between co-stars Kim and Sarah Jessica Parker from the show Sex and the City had been quashed. However, whispers of a feud resurfaced when Kim chose not to rejoin for a third film and made statements about her fellow actress that seemed questionable.

As an ardent fan, I can’t help but wonder about your response, Sarah Jessica Parker (SJP), when Andy Cohen brought up Kim Cattrall’s statement during the September 2017 episode of “Watch What Happens Live”. How did it feel to learn that the person who portrayed Samantha on Sex and the City viewed you not as a friend, but merely as a colleague?

She conveyed that she was deeply saddened by the situation we had discussed for a whole week. It was distressing for her as this didn’t align with her recollection of our shared experiences.

She went on to say, “It’s unfortunate, but I guess I feel…I can’t quite put it into words, but the shared experience we had seems to bind us. It was a professional journey, yet over the years, it grew personal. So I’m hoping that this deep bond outweighs any recent misunderstandings.” Sharing such a unique and meaningful experience for so long feels incredibly special.

And though they didn’t film scenes together, Kim did make a small appearance on And Just Like That.

 

The legendary performers have been involved in a longstanding dispute since 2004. During his acceptance speech for the Classic Songwriter Award at the Q Awards that year, Elton John famously declared to the audience, “Madonna, supposedly the best live act? Absolutely not! When does miming to prerecorded tracks count as live performance? I apologize, but I firmly believe anyone who lip-syncs on stage for a fee of around 75 pounds, especially when the audience pays that much to see them, should be held accountable.

2008 saw a disagreement between the previous star of Grey’s Anatomy and the show’s creator, as she opted out of Emmy Award consideration. She explained her decision by saying that the roles she was given didn’t merit an award nomination.

Back in 2012, during an interview with Oprah Winfrey on her show, Oprah’s Next Chapter, I found myself grappling with Katherine’s revelation that she was stepping away from our beloved series. On one hand, it hurt, and on the other, I wasn’t entirely shocked. As the saying goes, “When people show you who they are, believe them.” I’ve carried this mantra close to my heart ever since, and it’s served me well in understanding the choices of those in the spotlight.

During the New York Fashion Week, a widely publicized argument between Nicki and Cardi took place at the Harper’s Bazaar Icon party. A month later, Cardi revealed what had triggered the dispute with Nicki.

For some time now, she’s been firing numerous criticisms at me, Cardi mentioned in the Art Issue of W magazine. “We’ve spoken face-to-face on two occasions and reached a truce, but she persisted with her attacks.

The true ignition point for the argument occurred when Cardi noticed that Nicki appeared to have liked and then unliked a tweet criticizing Cardi’s parenting abilities, an action Nicki claims she did not perform.

Cardi B shared, “I had the opportunity to earn millions from my Bruno Mars tour, but I chose to stay with my daughter instead. ‘I adore my little one,’ she stated. ‘I’m a fantastic mother, and it’s hard for those without children to understand this.’ Instead of criticizing her decision at a party, people often say it wasn’t the right moment or place. But I wouldn’t want to run into another artist in the supermarket or on the street.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it as: My journey with Kanye West began back in 2009, during a fateful encounter at the MTV Video Music Awards where our paths crossed during his impromptu interruption of Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video. Despite smoothing things over and even fostering a friendship in subsequent years, our relationship hit another snag following the release of his song “Famous,” which included a reference to none other than Miss Swift herself.

“I don’t know her.”

The ongoing feud between Mariah and J.Lo dates back over 15 years. It began when Mariah, dubbed the ‘Queen of Christmas’, was questioned about various singers in an interview. When asked about Jennifer, she simply stated, “I’m not familiar with her.
