Dave Portnoy attacks Zach Bryan over his shock breakup with his Barstool colleague with a brutal Taylor Swift tweet

Dave Portnoy is targeting Zach Bryan after the country singer's shock split from Barstool Sports podcaster Brianna Chickenfry.

Bryan, 28, first announced on his Instagram Story on Tuesday with a lengthy statement that they had parted ways after more than a year.

But just over 30 minutes later, 25-year-old Brianna – real name Brianna LaPaglia – announced she was taking a social media break after feeling “really blindsided.”

Amid the controversy, Portnoy reached out to X and said he would dedicate the Taylor Swift song “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” to Chickenfry in a pointed dig.

Portnoy co-hosts the podcast “BFFs” with Chickenfry and TikTok influencer Josh Richards.

Portnoy said he dedicated the Taylor Swift song

Portnoy said he dedicated the Taylor Swift song “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” to her.

'“The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” is from Swift's most recent album, The Tortured Poets Department, and seemed to reference her heartbreak when her relationship with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy ended.

Swift was in a whirlwind romance with Healy – which was never immediately confirmed – which began in April 2023 after they were spotted kissing in New York City.

But the affair ended as quickly as it began, after Healy's “bad boy” image and his “racist” comments caused Swift to face lightning-fast backlash.

Bryan's announcement came a day after fans speculated that he and Chickenfry had gone their separate ways after a Reddit user claimed to have seen Zach on the celebrity dating app Raya, with photos of his alleged profile as well as a mysterious message, the chicken fry had shared.

The country singer, who has been dating Brianna since July 2023, posted on his account on Tuesday: “I want to address something: Brianna and I have separated (sic) and I respect and love her from the bottom of my heart. “She has me loved her unconditionally for a very long time and I will always thank her for that.

“I've personally had an incredibly tough year and have had to go through some pretty bad things.” I thought it would be beneficial for both of us if we went down different paths. I am not perfect and never will be.

Brianna alluded to the breakup with her own message, saying she felt “really blindsided.”

“Please respect Brianna’s privacy and space in this matter, and if that’s in your heart, mine too.”

“To all that I am and to everyone I have let down, I am sorry.” I try my best in everything. I have let down people who love me and especially myself.'

About 30 minutes after Bryan posted his message, the Barstool Sports star posted her own.

Although she didn't say anything about the split, she seemed to allude to her split from Zach, as she said she was feeling “really blindsided” at the moment.

“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. When I'm ready, I'll be back and ready to talk.

“I love you so much, thank you for all your kind words.” “Remember that you are so loved and that everything will always be okay.”
