Paige Spiranac stuns in racy outfit for Travis Kelce and brother Jason's beer brand
Paige Spiranac stunned in an Instagram post promoting Travis Kelce and brother Jason's beer brand on Tuesday. It was announced back in June 2024 that the NFL brothers were investing in the company, which is owned by the Braxton Brewing Corporation in Kentucky. As of April this year, it is America's fastest-growing light beer and now available in all 50 states. And now they've recruited a social media heavyweight to promote the brand after they posted a picture of Spiranac on their social media accounts. The golf influencer, who has four million followers on Instagram, can be seen walking into a bar with a pack of Garage Beer. A fellow patron is staring at her in the background. In the photo, Spiranac is wearing a pair of denim shorts and a low-cut black top that shows off her cleavage, as well as some black leather boots. The brand's Instagram account captioned the post 'Paige walks into a bar...' and she replied to them with a series of eyes emojis. It is a shrewd choice of ambassador by the brand with Spiranac's reach going beyond golf fans. She has a huge social media following and is even set to play a small role in the Hollywood blockbuster Happy Gilmore 2. Spiranac, 32, was at the premiere in New York on Monday night and posed for the cameras on the red carpet. She once again left little to the imagination as she walked the red carpet in a figure-hugging red dress that featured a sheer skirt. In a teaser trailer, Spiranac is working at Dick's Sporting Goods store and has the job of assisting Happy. In one scene, she watches on helplessly as Adam Sandler's titular character smashes a golf ball through the projector screen. 'The fact that I'm in the Happy Gilmore 2 movie is actually insane lol,' she wrote on X when the trailer was released. She is one of several high-profile names from the world of golf to feature in the movie with Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler also making cameos. The golf influencer stole the show in a figure-hugging red dress that featured a sheer skirt Travis Kelce also appears, although he was not at the premiere on Monday as he's now back in training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs. Taylor Swift's boyfriend landed a role in the film as a hotel employee, with one scene giving him the chance to share the screen with Bad Bunny. And while Kelce skipped out on the premiere, it's clear he made an impression on Sandler during filming. 'They were both so confident and so funny. They're gonna go on and do whatever the hell they want,' Sandler told The Hollywood Reporter of Kelce and Bad Bunny. 'But I'd love to do something with them again, because I got very friendly with them, and I love them both.' Sandler also joked to Extra TV that he 'didn't want to bother' Kelce's pop star girlfriend about a potential role in the film.
