Golfer Paige Spiranac Becomes 'Stripper' in a New Video

Social media influencer and former professional golfer Paige Spiranac shared a video in which she jokingly pursued a career as a stripper amid years of criticism on social media.

Spiranac, 30, who has gained a massive following in recent years, acknowledged that she had "been seeing these comments everywhere" in which social media users asked "are you a golfer or are you a stripper" amid her self-promotion for "sexualizing" women's golf.

"A lightbulb went off and I was like, 'maybe that's my calling,'" Spiranac said in the video, acting as if the critical comments were praise to follow a new career path.

"I'm not really set up to do this, I can't dance. I have no upper body strength but if the followers and the people out there think that I can do it than I think I can do it," she added, along with clips of herself comically dancing and visibly struggling to climb a pole.

The video concludes with Spiranac -- who chose the golf-inspired stage name 'Sandy Mounds' in the skit -- coughing on the smoke machine fog and getting booed off stage before the following message is shown: "Yet again, Paige suffered disappointment when she realized she wasn't cut out to be a stripper," and a mention of her continued focus on her OnlyPaige subscription service.
