Add Aaron Watson to the list of artists who are speaking out against Zach Bryan. The Texas singer says it's time news outlets stopped talking about Bryan. The 29-year-old has been making headlines for things besides his music, including a nasty break-up with his former girlfriend, Brianna Chickenfry, and upsetting a young fan who waited for hours to meet him.

"Hey to all you country music news outlets out there," Watson says in a video that has now gone viral. "I'm speaking on behalf of country music fans around the world. We don't want to hear any more news about Zach Bryan. Zach Bryan has already said that he does not want to be labeled as a country music artist, because his music is more expansive. Also, he's the guy that, when he got pulled over by the cops, he gave them the ol' 'Do you know who I am?' routine.
"He also told a 14-year-old fan to GOMD, which means get off my D," he continues. "This guy's doing things that are making him the poster boy for Summer's Eve. So we don't want to hear that he's back on Twitter, or back on X. Or anything about his new hairplugs, or his ex-girlfriend, Chickenfry. Talk more about things like Miranda [Lambert], and her skirt."
What Is Happening With Zach Bryan
Indeed, Bryan isn't exactly winning popularity contests in the news. Chickenfry recently revealed she allegedly turned down $12 million if she signed an NDA, refusing to discuss Bryan's less-than-stellar behavior. Only a few weeks later, Bryan was in the news, after he openly criticized a teenager fan, leaving the crude comment in his response.
"We waited until 4:00 AM, the fan posted in a since-deleted video (via American Songwriter). "Zach Bryan driving away from his fans that waited 4 hours to meet him; he didn't even roll down his window to say hi."
Gavin Adcock wasted no time in slamming Bryan for his treatment of the 14-year-old.
"If you can't handle the criticism of a 14 year old why do people idolize you?" Adcock
