Paige Spiranac’s Brutally Honest Take On Yankees Legend Derek Jeter

Paige Spiranac’s Brutally Honest Take On Yankees Legend Derek Jeter

Paige Spiranac is one of the most influential personalities in all of sports.

The 29-year-old boasts a massive following on social media and regularly asks her fans engaging questions to find out more about their experiences with various stars and leagues.

This week, Spiranac went mega-viral by posting this on Instagram with a question for her followers about who their favorite athlete of all time was:

When one of her fans answered with “Derek Jeter,” Spiranac replied in the comments with her brutally honest take on the New York Yankees legend.

This actually isn’t the first time Spiranac has directed a lot of praise Jeter’s way. She previously did so on her podcast, earlier this year, when initially describing her encounter with him at that event.

“He was asking me so many questions, which is something that doesn’t really happen when you’re around these celebrities and athletes,” Spiranac said.

“Again, just one of the coolest, coolest, nicest guys that I’ve met, which is always nice when you have that experience because there’s been so many times when I’ve met someone, who I was really excited to meet, and I was really disappointed with the interaction that I had with them.

“And so that happened a lot, early on in my career, and so now, I really don’t have high expectations of meeting anyone, and when you meet someone and they’re way cooler than you expect them to be, it’s awesome.”

Spiranac has been in the headlines quite a bit in recent weeks. Between her provocative World Series outfit setting the internet ablaze, that video of her playing soccer with no shirt on in honor of the World Cup and the Tom Brady dating rumors that she had to address recently – it has been one thing after another.

And then of course in addition to all that there is just her same ol’, same ol’ Instagram content – which never disappoints:

Spiranac is a star in her own right, so it’s nice that a legend like Jeter treated her as such.

And it is similarly great that Spiranac remains grounded enough to the point where an interaction like that was truly meaningful to her.

At the end of the day, she remains a great voice and representative for the fans.

Hopefully that continues to be the case for many years to come.
