Haliey Welch, known to many as the Hawk Tuah Girl, has finally broken her silence after a viral video of her spitting out a hilarious catchphrase took the internet by storm. Singing alongside country music star Zach Bryan in Nashville, Welch showcased her talent to thousands of fans at the Nissan Stadium, proving that she’s more than just a viral sensation.
In a recent appearance on Plan Bri Uncut, a podcast hosted by Bryan’s girlfriend Brianna Lapaglia, Welch set the record straight on some misconceptions circulating about her online. Contrary to popular belief, she doesn’t work as a teacher or have a preacher for a father – she actually works at a spring factory in her hometown of Belfast, Tennessee.
When asked about her unexpected rise to fame, Welch admitted that she never expected her street interview with YouTuber duo Tim and Dee TV to garner such massive attention. Despite initially deleting her social media accounts for personal reasons, Welch’s infectious personality and quirky humor have captivated audiences worldwide.
Although she’s cashed in on her catchphrase through merchandise sales, Welch is adamant that she doesn’t want to be defined by her viral moment. With big plans for the future, including live shows and podcast appearances, Welch is ready to show the world that there’s more to her than just being the Hawk Tuah Girl. So stay tuned – there’s definitely more to come from this rising star.
