Paige Spiranac shares hate messages she has been receiving
Paige Spiranac played well enough during the Internet Invitational to reach the final match in the $1 million tournament, but the popular influencer has been struggling with the feedback she has received since the event aired.
Spiranac was one of 48 influencers and Internet personalities who played at the Internet Invitational earlier this year at Big Cedar Lodge in Ridgedale, Mo. The event, which was organized by Barstool Sports and Bob Does Sports, featured YouTube golfers and other personalities with various skill levels who competed for the $1 million purse.
The tournament was broken into a six-part YouTube series that was released in episodes over the last two weeks. Spiranac, Frankie Borrelli and Malosi “Mo” Togisala faced the trio of Brad Dalke, Francis Ellis and Cody “Beef” Franke in the final match. Dalke, Ellis and Franke, who died unexpectedly at the age of 31 last month, won the tournament.
After the third episode was released on Nov. 3, Spiranac broke down crying in a video on her Instagram story. She first shared a screenshot of a message she received from a fan that that read as follows, with the profanity edited by Larry Brown Sports: “I f—ing hate you. You stupid b–ch think your (sic) so much better than everyone at the internet invitational. Go kill yourself ouo (sic) stupid c–t.”
Spiranac said she had been receiving a lot of messages like that. She said she has “struggled socially my entire life” and that the negative feedback from the Internet Invitational brought out a lot of her “insecurities.”
“So it’s just been really hard to see this reaction to being unliked and hated … I know there are more important things in life than wanting to be liked and I want to fit in — and I’ve tried for a lot of my life to find places where I can fit in,” Spiranac said, via Jenna Lemoncelli of the New York Post. “And when I was at the Internet invitational I felt really good … it was nice to feel that way.
“And then now to watch it back and the deep insecurities of childhood whatever is coming all back and its confirmation that no you’re actually not liked, you’re annoying, and no one likes you — and you suck and you’re terrible and all these things. And it’s just hard because you feel good in that moment … then it’s like just kidding.”

“BREAKING NEWS: NFL icon Patrick Mahomes just delivered a powerful message that left some of the world’s richest and most influential people stunned — and then he backed up his words with action. READ MORE: At a lavish black-tie gala in Manhattan, surrounded by billionaires, crystal chandeliers, and egos large enough to fill a stadium, Mahomes took the stage to accept a Global Impact Award — but instead of giving the polite, scripted speech everyone expected, the Chiefs quarterback spoke from the heart. He didn’t praise sponsors. He didn’t talk about fame. He didn’t thank “the usual names.” Instead, he looked out at a room filled with the world’s wealthiest — including Mark Zuckerberg and several Wall Street titans — and said: “If you’re blessed, you have a duty to bless others. No one should build an empire while kids don’t have a place to sleep. If you hold more than you need, then someone out there is going without.” The entire room froze. Eyewitnesses say Zuckerberg and the tech billionaires sat stiff, not clapping, not smiling — just stunned silence as Patrick’s words rang through the hall. Of course they didn’t clap. The truth rarely comforts those who benefit from the way things are. Because Mahomes wasn’t talking about envy — he was talking about responsibility, character, and humanity. And he didn’t stop at words. That same night, Patrick Mahomes announced a $10 million donation through his “15 and the Mahomies Foundation” to build youth centers, sports facilities, medical clinics, and safe housing in struggling communities across Kansas City, Tyler (Texas), and underserved neighborhoods throughout the Midwest and South. He didn’t brag. He didn’t pose. He simply acted — proving that leadership isn’t something you say… it’s something you do. Mahomes’ message was clear, timeless, and deeply human: “Greatness isn’t measured by what you earn — it’s measured by what you give.” While billionaires chase luxury, status, and applause, Patrick Mahomes reminded the world that true greatness comes from lifting others, not just yourself. In a world obsessed with wealth and power, Patrick did what he always does — stepped up when it mattered most. Patrick Mahomes didn’t just speak tonight. He made the world stop and listen.”

10 minutes ago: Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid shatters the silence with a fiery statement defending quarterback Patrick Mahomes: FULL STORY 👉👉👉 back-patrick-8ns0lu-yen123-d74897af6ade “What’s happening to him is a crime against football — a blatant betrayal of everything this sport stands for. How can people be so cruel? Criticizing a 30-year-old man who’s carried this entire franchise on his back, shows up every single week, gives everything he has, never asks for attention, never blames anyone — just tries to win for the Kansas City Chiefs? To me, Patrick Mahomes is one of the greatest quarterbacks this league has ever seen — and instead of tearing him down every time the team struggles, people should be standing behind him.” — Andy Reid
