'Love Is Blind's Zack Goytowski Dishes More Details About 'Embarrassing' 'Irina' Song

"Love Is Blind" contestant Zack Goytowski is setting the record straight and showing receipts!

During season four, the 32-year-old Criminal Defense lawyer proposed to Irina Solomonova in the Netflix dating series signature pods. Still, the couple's romance quickly fizzled once the duo met face-to-face. Goytowski then reunited with his first potential pick Bliss Poureetzadi. As of this writing, the team is engaged!

Goytowski's dating life in the pods wasn't the only memorable aspect of his presence on the show. While he was still pursuing Solomonova, he decided to serenade her with an "original" song. However, some "Love Is Blind" devotees noticed a crucial element concerning Goytowski's ode to his first love; the tune was not original!

The Blast previously covered the many TikTok creators who discovered the snafu and pointed out the blunder.

Goytowski was covering a song by the early-aughts alternative band Ludo. Countless TikTokers would feature "Sara's Song" clips alongside Goytowski's rendition.

After the news gained enough traction online, the "Love Is Blind" star would address the matter on Instagram.

Taking to his Instagram comments, Goytowski wrote, "Ludo is my favorite band. And that was my favorite song from them. That and the entire 'broken bride' album," he began. "I credited that song to them," he explained. "I sang the entire song from beginning to end. It just gets cut probably because everyone would turn the tv off after 30 seconds," he continued. "It wasn't an original. I change[d] some of the lyrics. Probably one of my top five most embarrassing moments," Goytowski concluded. (via Elite Daily)

The outlet also revealed the band is reportedly excellent with Goytowski's version!

Earlier this week, Goytowski took to the 'gram once more to share more insight with viewers.

"Hey guys, it's Zack from 'Love Is Blind' here," he tells fans in a sit-down video. "There has been a scandal surrounding me," he continues.

"Zack Goytowski, the 'plagiarist,' the 'thief,'' the reality star goes on to say before showing a TikTok about the situation.

"They started from some well-intended fans of one of my favorite bands, and it's kind of snowballed," he explains before showing screenshots of articles written about the 'scandal.'

"I have for you here 'exclusive' never before seen footage from the pods, in one of the most embarrassing moments of my life, but not because I plagiarized the song," Goytowski says before showing an unedited clip of the scene.

"I wrote you a song," Goytowski tells Solomonova in the snippet viewers saw on Netflix. "It's not an original, it's one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands, but I have changed around the lyrics a bit for you," he continues. This particular part of the exchange had been edited out of the episode.

"Check out, Ludo," Goytowski says as the clip reverts to his explanation. "They're a phenomenal band, and they have great music. It's one of my favorite bands. Oh, and yeah, I have some more receipts, too," he continued before cutting to his scene in the upcoming live reunion trailer.

"Love Is Blind" viewers undoubtedly gathered in the post's comment section to discuss the video!

"I'm so glad they gave you this footage. People need to get a life," a fan commented.

"I saw some people saying you gave credit, but it was cut out, so you have some real fans willing to look out for the real story," another fan assured him.

"People love taking nothing and turning it into something," another follower said. "Sorry, you had to deal with that. Well handled!"

"[laughing emojis] Thanks for this, and I don't know why people forget that shows are highly edited. We only see glimpses of what went down," a fan commented.

"I love how people are trying to lawyer you bc you'll just lawyer them back [skeleton emoji]," a fan joked, adding hashtags referencing the sitcom "How I Met Your Mother."

"Imagine tryna attack a lawyer, instant L. Get shutdown," another fan said.

"1) Not the scandal I was thinking of 2) It IS a scandal we all needed. People don't think about how producers pick and choose different footage to follow all of the couples and the fact you don't 100% ever know what a relationship is like," a fan weighed in. "Kudos, Zack! [heart and praise emojis.]

Episodes nine through 11 of season four are now streaming on Netflix! The live reunion will pour on Sunday, April 14th. (via Men's Health)
