Brianna Chickenfry Shades Zach Bryan With New Video Featuring Morgan Wallen’s “I Got Better”
Maybe they did have similar taste in music after all?
Last week, Morgan Wallen released his fourth studio album I’m The Problem, and it seems as though exes Zach Bryan and Barstool Sports personality Brianna Chickenfry have the same favorite tune, which also happens to be Morgan’s favorite on the album, a song called “I Got Better.” Zach shared the song on Instagram the day it was released, and we’ll get to what Brianna did in a second, but first, you need to know some background about these three.
Back when Brianna was first started dishing on her tumultuous relationship with Zach via her BFF’s podcast, she recalled an alleged fight they had over country music’s other mega star in Morgan, who was coming off the highest-selling country tour of all-time last year with his One Night At A Time World Tour, and scored #1 hits all year long on both country and Top 40 charts. From what Bri said on the BFF’s podcast, it sounded like that bothered Zach, which is fair to a certain extent, but he seemingly took it to an entirely new level, being upset Bri had Morgan’s smash hit “Last Night” stuck in her head one morning after scrolling past the song in a TikTok video…
She alleges that she walked up the stairs at their NYC apartment one morning singing a line from it, and it turned into “a fight for a week.” Bri recalled Zach telling her that he couldn’t believe she would be “singing another man’s song under my roof, in this house, that I own,” saying he “freaked the f*** out” over it:
“One morning, we were out the night before, and one morning I woke up and I was scrolling TikTok, and ‘Last night, we let the liquor talk,’ was stuck in my head.
And I walk up the stairs in the New York apartment, and I’m singing, I’m about to make breakfast or something like that… he freaked the f*** out. Like, freaked the f*** out. He could not believe, ‘You’re singing another man’s song under my roof, in this house, that I own.’ It was a fight for, I think, a week. It’s a Morgan Wallen song. I don’t know…”
Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy, who used to co-host the podcast, was a little confused about why Zach was bothered about that song in particular, wondering if there was specific beef between the two country stars he didn’t know about, but I think the other co-host Josh Richards summed it up perfectly, explaining:
“I think he really doesn’t like Morgan Wallen. I think he hates Morgan Wallen. I think he feels inferior to Morgan Wallen.”
Bri then also told the guys that she “wasn’t really allowed” to listen to wildly popular folk pop singer Noah Kahan either, who Zach previously called “a friend” after he missed one of the shows at Fenway Park that Noah headlined, where he supposedly going to be the “surprise guest”:
“I also, I was not really allowed to listen to Noah Kahan. I listened to him too much.”
So basically, it sounds like Zach was sensitive about her listening to other artists he saw as competition, or he was jealous because they were other men, or maybe… Brianna is a total liar and a fraud. But either way, it seems like he’s moved on and now he’s a Morgan Wallen fan to some degree? Who knows…
But Bri certainly didn’t miss the chance to take another thinly-veiled shot at her ex by posting a video on TikTok looking stunning, with Morgan’s song “I Got Better” in the background just days after Zach shared it:

Of course, she got tons of reaction from her fans online, with many of them pointing out her particular song choice and how she didn’t miss the chance to seemingly shade her ex:
“Songs hit different when you’re actually allowed to listen to them huh?”
“Wait…. Hear me out…. Bri & Morgan.”
“I think it would be iconic for you to chill with Morgan.”
“Yessss sing that Morgan Wallen tune!”
“I’ll always love you using a Morgan Wallen song.”
“Song choice.”
“Yessss love this especially with knowing the lore.”
“She got better. He pretended he did. I knew I’d see you post this song after he did. Bri did it better.”
“When you finally can listen to Morgan without a pest in your ear.”
“It’s like he wrote that for you!”
“Tbh I was waiting for this one – queen.”
“He beat you to it sis lmao.”
“This one was written for you Bri!”
“This is diabolical hahahahaha.”
As much as Brianna fans are here for the shade, her whole personality since the breakup has been exactly that… the breakup. I know you allegedly turned down all that NDA money and now you gotta get your money’s worth to make up for it, but move on already, girl. You wanna be known as Zach Bryan’s ex your whole life? Sure feels that way…
That said, “I Got Better” is one of my favorites too, so if you’re unsure where to start or don’t generally feel like sifting through that much music, it’s not a bad place to start:
“I Got Better”
