TikTok is back again! And Paige Spiranac is enjoying the moment!
Just hours ago, the popular social media app had blacked out. As the headlines of its eventual ban were spreading like wildfire, users of the app were surprised that it was down without any prior update. Even though they were anticipating it to stop working eventually, everyone expected a scheduled shutdown of the app.
Now that it is back after a brief issue, Paige Spiranac is now poking fun at the unrest it caused among the citizens of the U.S. She tweeted, “The TikTok drama the past 24 hours reminds me of the scene in Almost Famous where they thought their plane was going to crash so they told each other their deep dark secrets then seconds later the turbulence was over lol.” It clearly seems that Spiranac is enjoying the moment and all the drama that it caused in the U.S.A.

This is surprising coming from Spiranac who recently nearly suffered losses due to the temporary shutdown of TikTok in the States. The golf queen receives a considerable paycheck from sponsorships and ads she runs on her TikTok account. The earnings go up to nearly $100,000. While the ban would eventually cause her to lose those earnings, it’s great to see that she is not that bummed about it. In fact, she even found the entire blackout fiasco to be hilarious.
Before the application got back online, the users in the U.S. were in for a rude awakening as it became inaccessible owing to the law passed by a bipartisan majority in Congress last year. Lawmakers and U.S. officials gave the deadline of January 19 to TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, to sell its stake in the app or be cut from the U.S. market. And we all see how that played out.
Before the Sunday ban, the video-sharing platform voluntarily shut down its services, and the users who got on the application had a message waiting for them that read: “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now.”
“A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S.,” the message reads. “Unfortunately, that means you can’t use TikTok for now. We are fortunate that President Trump has indicated that he will work with us on a solution to reinstate TikTok once he takes office. Please stay tuned!”
Moving on, the influencer is not the first one to share her opinion about the blackout. A few hours ago, Charley Hull had also shared her views about the TikTok ban. Let’s see what she had to say.
The news of TikTok getting banned seems to be a hot topic across the globe. Charley Hull had also posted a story about what she thinks of the situation. Sharing a picture of herself posing in a vehicle, the fashionista said, “Tick tock is being banned to be honest I think we should all be going bk to old school ban all social media.” She seems to be clearly done with anything that has to do with social media.
The LPGA Tour star also had another suggestion to add. Hull stated, “go bk to a Nokia phone and live life in the moment. Grantee the whole world would be a happier healthier place 💯.” It seems that the 2x LPGA Tour champion is missing the early 2000s, which is surprising considering that she would have been under 10 years old during that time. It seems that the ban on TikTok is not affecting our favorite golfers/social media queens one bit.
