What does love mean to you? Love looks different for everybody. Love could be as simple as sitting on the couch and laughing with a friend, or it could be a big, extravagant romantic gesture orchestrated by a lover. Love could be holding a newborn baby for the first time or going home to surprise your parents. Love is around us every single day, and right now, given the events of last week, it’s important to remember to love one another no matter how that looks. At the base of every form of love listed above is kind words and mutual respect, whether it’s a platonic or romantic love. For those reading this in a trusting, loving relationship with a partner, you know how sacred that bond is and that it’s special to share so many intimate moments with a person you care so deeply about. And love songs hit so much harder when you feel the lyrics deep in your soul, knowing they reflect the kind of love that you have for someone. For those who are embracing their single era, these songs can help you pinpoint the type of love you hope to have one day, wishing that your future lover thinks about you while hearing these poetic lyrics. Ella Langley might be in her single era, but she knows what she is looking for and shared that with the crowd in Edmonton while opening for Morgan Wallen. “Do I have anybody in love with somebody else out there tonight? Do I have anybody looking for love out there tonight? Alright, for those of you who are in love with somebody, you can sing this song to them. Good for you, we’re jealous, everyone here. If not, and you’re looking for that kind of love… To me, love is everything. It’s passionate, it’s honest, it’s hardworking. It’s forgiveness. I’m looking for that. Somebody that I just know is my person.” Langley then shared with her fans that if they feel like love is the same thing to them as it is to her, they should sing along with the words of “Nicotine” with her. @brooke.vdw she’s got such a way with words @Ella Langley #ellalangley #morganwallen ♬ original sound – Brooke “Nicotine” is a perfect song to lead into after that speech about the kind of love Langley hopes to have with someone one day. The tune comes from her 2024 project Hungover and highlights the type of fiery love that everyone wishes to share one day. It’s the craving of being close to someone and spending your days with them, supporting each other through highs and lows. “Baby, be my nicotine My lips on a buzz smoke ring Feels good under neon lights Stiff drink at the end of the night Be the thing that I crave so bad Leave me wanting just a one more drag Take my breath, make it hard to breathe The one I want, but I just don’t need Baby, be my nicotine My nicotine…” I know the lyrics of “Nicotine” strike a chord with many yearning for a deep connection and a once-in-a-lifetime kind of lover. One of these days, I’m sure that Ella Langley will find all the characteristics she listed off before performing this tune. Since returning to the stage, she’s had a few vulnerable moments like this with fans, and it’s warming to see this softer side of the Alabama native. Of course, she’s still kicking a** and taking names, but the struggles she’s shared and the desires she has resonate among fans, making her that much more relatable. Fire up “Nicotine” before you go.  The post “I’m Looking For That” – Ella Langley Reveals What Kind Of Love She’s Searching For Ahead Of “Nicotine” Performance first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

I was waiting for this… By now, I’m sure you’ve seen the viral video of country star Zach Bryan jumping over a fence to confront Gavin Adcock at Born & Raised Fest in Oklahoma this past weekend. Zach was clearly riled up before taking the stage for a surprise appearance with Gabriella Rose in his home state of Oklahoma, and he was even yelling obscenities in the middle of “Madeline” about Gavin. According to Gavin, he made some comments to Gavin earlier in the day, but didn’t actually try and confront him until after he had already left and was behind the fence. He was apparently on his way home and decided to stop and have words with Adcock, jumping over a barbed wire before being held back by security. It was pretty wild… View this post on Instagram A post shared by Whiskey Riff (@whiskeyriff) The whole thing happened right before Gavin was set to go onstage for his headlining set, but after he got off, he took to social media and left several comments explaining what happened, claiming that Zach was “absolutely wasted” when he tried to fight him: “Had a headline show to play. Dude was absolutely wasted. Had to do what was good for the fans. Everybody knows how that woulda ended.” And in another comment on his own post, Gavin confirms that he didn’t want to fight Zach because he didn’t want to go to jail before his own headlining set: “Had a show to play for Oklahoma. Wasn’t going to jail over that psycho.” And he summed it up with the caption on his own TikTok post: “Dude needs help.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gavin Adcock (@gavinadcockmusic) This morning, Gavin joined Barstool Sports CEO, Dave Portnoy, for an interview about the situation and revealed that Zach tore his pants getting over the fence. Of course, Dave is Brianna Chickenfry’s boss and certainly no fan of Bryan. Gavin also explained that there were so many security guards around them that even if they wanted to fight, they wouldn’t have been able to. I don’t know if that’s true, but I have no interest in taking anyone’s side when it comes to this because I think the whole thing is so stupid: “He ripped his pants when he got over it. He got about halfway over, and his pants got caught. There was seven security guards standing around, not for only for my safety, but for his safety. And if I would’ve took off after him, or he would’ve took off after me, the security guard were just gonna grab us and hem us up and not let us do anything. Plus, I was just being the bigger man, you know. He seems, y’all like to call him the smallest man in the world, he seems, he seems to wear that f****** pretty good.” You just know Brianna is LOVING this because honestly, even though it’s kind of annoying that she won’t stop talking about Zach, things that this only make her seem much more validated in every single thing she’s said about him: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) And so you know Bri couldn’t WAIT to weigh in on the fence hop too… he just set her up for the perfect opportunity to throw more shade his way, something she hasn’t missed a chance doing thus far. Today, Bri posted a video from a boat while on vacation in Portugal, drinking wine with friends and family with the song “Meet Me At Our Spot” playing in the background, along with the caption referencing Zach’s now-viral video, saying: “Not a fence in sight!” She has weighed in on pretty much everything he’s done that has made headlines since they broke up, including commenting on his new girlfriend Samantha who looks strikingly similar to Bri and could honestly be her clone… it’s insane how much they really look alike. Anyways, I think it’s safe to say Bri is glad she’s no longer with Zach because of things like this: @ihatebriannachickenfryNot a fence in sight!♬ Meet Me At Our Spot (Live) – THE ANXIETY & WILLOW & Tyler Cole Many of her supporters in the comments were obviously loving the shade, saying she clearly looks like she’s come out on top after all the drama between them in the wake of the breakup: “Bri you have the ability to do the funniest thing right now & invite Haley Larkin out for a girls night.” “His gf following behind him as he crashed out gave me the worst second hand embarrassment. Freedom looks so good on you.” “I need everyone to take note- perfect example of what to come is better than what came before. This queen escaped abuse and is now living her best life.. meanwhile.. Mr I jump fences to act tough.” “Temu Bri talking him off the edge, ‘Babe you’re not acting like yourself.'” “YOUR CAPTION ATE… IDC WHAT ANYONE SAYS!” “Not a fence or a clone around, thank goodness.” “He looked like a little Chihuahua trying to jump a baby gate.” “SHE GOT AWAAAAAYYY.” “Ok the caption is iconic.” “She’s living!! Thriving.” “This SCREAMS freedom and I love it!” “Caption… ATE.” “Loving life looks good on you.” “HAHAHHAHAA.” “I laughed so hard.” “WAR IS OVERRRR.” “I would have put that caption too… if you haven’t dated a narcissist you don’t know the SATISFACTION of watching them embarrass themselves while you’re out here living your best life. I’s lovely tbh.” “Your caption. Yessss girl. So happy for you living your best life away from Lego man.” “One thing about Zach Brian, he going to take offense.” “The grass IS greener on the other side of the barbed wire fence.” Honestly, so true…The post “Not A Fence In Sight!” – Brianna Chickenfry Shades Ex, Zach Bryan, Following Viral Confrontation With Gavin Adcock first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
