The revelation came after the ex-girlfriend of the 'Something in the Orange' singer alleged Zach Bryan offered her $12 million to buy her silence about their relationship and breakup.
On Thursday, November 7 episode, of her 'BFFs' podcast, which she co-hosts with Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards, LaPaglia claimed, "After everything was done, I was approached by [Bryan’s] team and I was offered a lot of money, a big lump sum of money and a few options."
She further shared, "They would’ve been monitoring everything that I do. I thought about it for a second and I think they tend to forget, I started to forget, that I was someone, I was established, I was successful, before [Bryan]. I’m going to be someone, I’m going to be established [and] I’m going to be successful after him [too]."
The 25-year-old asserted that she does not "want blood money."
