Brianna Chickenfry, a well-known social media influencer and podcast host, gained fame through her comedic TikTok videos and unfiltered take on young adult life. Her internet popularity led to a role at Barstool Sports, where she continued to grow her following. In 2023, Brianna began dating Grammy-winning country singer Zach Bryan, but the relationship came to an unexpected end in October 2024, leaving Brianna "blindsided" by the split.

Brianna Chickenfry, whose real name is Brianna LaPaglia, was born on June 17, 1999, in Boston, Massachusetts. She attended Rockland High School before pursuing public health at Baldwin Wallace University, where she was part of the swimming and diving team. However, her academic journey was cut short in 2020 when her TikTok presence exploded, leading her to drop out and focus on social media full-time. Known for her "CEO of hangovers" persona, Brianna quickly amassed over two million followers by sharing humorous takes on balancing college, social life, and personal struggles.

Her success attracted Barstool Sports, which offered her a podcast, PlanBri Uncut, where she shares insights on navigating life in one's early 20s. With a weekly guest, the podcast dives into topics like relationships, friendships, and partying, with Brianna unreservedly sharing personal stories and advice. Dubbed the "Dr. Phil of college advice," she offers a mix of humor and honesty, resonating with young audiences.
