Country singer Zach Bryan and Austin Caldwellhis girlfriend, Barstool Sports personality Brianna LaPaglia, were involved in a "side-by-side" car crash last weekend, she said on social media.

LaPaglia, also known as Brianna Chickenfry, took to TikTok on Tuesday to recall the "traumatizing" incident.

"It flipped a bunch of times, everything shattered and thank God we had our seatbelts on," LaPaglia said of the crash, which happened two nights prior. "But there was a lot of blood and we thought we were saying goodbye to each other."

LaPaglia said she felt as if she was having a "mental breakdown," noting that she's been "living on a bus for the past month," which hasn't helped the matter.

Bryan, who is currently on his Quitting Time tour, got a "huge gash" stitched after the ambulance arrived.

As they set out to leave, they opened the bus door and their cat Mango ran out into a wooded area.

"Zach tries to jump on her, all of his stitches burst again, he's bleeding (everywhere), so much blood," she said, getting emotional. The couple finally find the cat, but get little sleep after the distressing events of the day.

"I was so mentally out of it," she said, recalling both of their busy schedules and their other cat running out of the bus. The couple found it in the early hours of the morning, she said exasperated.

"I'm just so tired," she ended the video. "My whole body hurts, and I keep finding more bruises and scrapes, and I pulled glass out of my cheek last night."

In a follow-up video, LaPaglia said she will "be that annoying person. I will spend the rest of my life saying, 'Wear your seatbelts.'"

She added: "If you get anything from me that I've ever posted in my whole entire social media career in the past five years, it's wear a seatbelt."
