Brianna LaPaglia is embracing all things red.

The social media star, 25, posted an Instagram gallery on Thursday, Sept. 19, highlighting recent photos — all featuring the color red. The BFFs podcast host included photos of herself in a red dress, a bouquet of red roses, a red pool table and red Mary Jane shoes. 

LaPaglia also included a selfie wearing a bright red baseball hat emblazoned with, “Make America Sexy Again,” seemingly a play on former President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” merchandise.  “I think I like red,” she simply captioned the post.

She shared the photos hours after her boyfriend, country star Zach Bryan, apologized for his controversial tweet about Kanye West and Taylor Swift.

The Great American Bar Scene singer, 28, compared the two artists in a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter).

“eagles > chiefs. Kanye > Taylor,” Bryan tweeted on Sept. 17, per PopCrave. The tweet notably mentions the Kansas City Chiefs, the team Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce plays for.

Bryan concluded the post by asking his fans, “who’s with me.” The posts prompted online backlash and Bryan later deleted his X account.

Bryan’s Instagram account remains active. He also followed up the X post with four Instagram Stories with Ye (formerly Kanye West) songs, including “Good Life,” featuring T-Pain, “I Thought About Killing You,” “All Mine” and “Ghost Town” featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR, Billboard reported.

He continued posting to Instagram to “break his silence” and issued an apology in his Instagram Stories. In his apology, he posted Swift’s songs “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone and “The Albatross” from The Tortured Poets Department, as well as “Castles Crumbling” featuring Hayley Williams from Fearless (Taylor’s Version).

“For the record guys I wasn’t coming for Taylor the other night,” Bryan wrote in the Instagram Stories. “I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong. I know there’s a lot of stuff that clouds around Ye and I was speaking purely musically.” 

He continued: “I love Taylor’s music and pray you guys know I’m human and tweet stupid things often. Hope one day I can explain this to her. Twitter gets me in trouble too much and I’d say it’s best I stay off it. I’m sorry to any Taylor fans I pissed off or let down. Love you guys and I’m trying my best!”

“You should it’s a great album,” wrote one user. “That’s taylor swifts’ favorite color too,” another added.
