Paige Spiranac’s dad saved the day
When you are famous online, it is obvious to receive love and some hate comments. In her podcast, while discussing trolling, she said that it has not happened too often that someone trolled her.
She has not received any hate comment in person, but mostly what she receives is always something sexual.
She shared one such incident and said, “I was signing all these autographs, and it was like, I don’t know, like a 16-year-old kid or something. And he’s like, I want her to sign this and pointed to his d**k. And my dad was standing right next to him, right next to him, turns to him. And he said her last name is too long to sign. And I died laughing. I was like, That is such a good comeback.”
Paige Spiranac talks about the seriousness of trolling
Paige Spiranac does not appreciate how people take trolling as a joke. It is not always a joke and can cause serious damage. People come up to her and joke about her getting trolled.
She expressed how people used to ask her that how do her friends and relatives handle all the negative sexual comments. They then used to laugh at it as if it was a joke. It is part of the package of popularity, but she does not like it. She gets weirded out when people touch her inappropriately.
The trolling, the comments have always been sexual. According to Paige, no one has ever come to her and expressed their hate. It is always something about her attire or her body.
She is thankful that her friends and family are supportive. Yes, true that it is part of the job, but it is never fun. Gladly, she is aware of trolling and bullying and she knows the right steps which one must take. She understands how hard getting trolled can be, but thanks to her supporters, she is doing great.
