Zach Bryan seen legging it down Dublin street ahead of Phoenix Park gigs
Zach Bryan was reportedly filmed fleeing a number of fans in Dublin City Centre, ahead of his gig in Phoenix Park.
The country superstar will be playing three sell-out gigs in Phoenix Park this weekend, and has been spotted in the capital ahead of the mammoth gigs, with some people already catching videos of him rehearsing in the park.
With celebrities on tour usually enjoying a reprieve and being minimally bothered when they come to our shores, Zach reportedly proved to be an anomaly on Thursday — as a fan (with an American accent) recorded him legging it down O'Connell Street. @oklahomanoutlaw Zach Bryan was involved in a high-speed chase, running away from fans at the Portal in Dublin, Ireland. #ZachBryan #countrymusic #withheavenontop #zachbryansong #zachbryanmusic #zachbryanconcert #countrymusician #countrysong #countryartist #oklahomanoutlaw #outlawcountry #zachbryandublin #phoenixpark #zachbryanireland #zachbryanphoenixpark ♬ original sound – Oklahoman Outlaw
The video, which was shared by a Zach Bryan fan page to TikTok, saw the singer run around a corner on the street, with the person recording joking that 'he's not pulling a hammy [hamstring] there. He's in good shape.'
The video has since gained nearly 400,000 views on the site, with some people wondering why he was running at God Speed (get it?), and others wondering if he was even being chased in the first place.
'Literally no one is chasing him,' one person commented. 'In fact most people in the street don't know who he is or why they're running,' while Jedward commented 'that's Tom Cruise filming with a blonde wig and country voice.'

General entry starts from 5pm, while early entry tickets can enter from 4.30pm. Zach will play three huge gigs in Phoenix Park this weekend.

Tourist seethes at influencer request to child in pool at Thai holiday resort
A holidaymaker has hit out at influencer culture for going too far as she urged content creators to let children play. The comments from @carlyleighgyally on TikTok came as she sunned herself by a beautiful pool in a resort in Thailand. Carly turned to her social media to express her outrage after a young child who was playing with her dad in the water was asked to move so an influencer could get a perfect picture, reports The Mirror. She explained: "This family's here and there's an adults-only pool literally 50 metres round the corner where there are no children. "This little girl who's playing with her dad in the pool, she's on his shoulders, she's the best swimmer I've ever had in my life and she's like five. I think it's really wholesome and sweet." Warning: Explicit language in video. But when a woman arrived and set herself up with a tripod, she wasn't happy that the stunning backdrop to the beautiful pool - a lush green landscape - was being "spoiled" by the family playing in it. "This f***** influencer pointed to the edge of the pool and was like: 'Can you go over there?'," raged the TikTokker. "'F*** off'. If you want a private pool to film content... go rent a villa." Much to the dismay of the holidaymaker, the "wholesome" family had moved when told and were now not fully enjoying themselves. "Now they're really uncomfortable at the side of the pool, they're not doing what they were doing anymore," she said. "I'm so annoyed at this b****." This unnamed influencer isn't the only one to annoy the public - earlier this year another content creator was slammed for asking a 12-year-old boy enjoying the sea view from Bondi's famous Icebergs Pool in Australia to move so she could pose. TikTok users were quick to agree with Carly this time around, with one telling her: "My partner makes it his mission to cannonball all influencer shots." Another jaw-dropping influencer story was shared in response to her video from a TikTokker called Jen, who said: "My fiancé proposed to me on holiday and had paid for the hotel to set up an area with flowers, candles and MARRY ME lights. The area was blocked off with a sign saying 'private event'. "After he proposed, we sat drinking champagne and these two influencers came over and started taking photos next to us! One of them even moved the private event sign out of the way! So I told them where to go." "Influencers in the wild are the worst people ever," added Carly of her original video. "You can't tell children to move, it is the worst humanly thing I've ever seen anyone do."
