Hawk Tuah girl invited on stage at gig to perform song with huge music star

After selling thousands of dollars of merch, the Hawk Tuah girl is well and truly riding the wave of her viral fame - and has now appeared as a guest star for a music icon.

An innocuous video posted to social media one day catapulted Hailey Welch to her five minutes of fame.

She and her friend were being interviewed on the street - presumably on a night out.

When asked ‘what’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?’ she responded with an iconic line: "You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thing!"

So became the viral sensation that was ‘hawk tuah’ girl.

Thanks to interviewers, Tim and Dee TV, Welch shot to internet fame which brought her fame, a merch brand and an entire fanbase of mostly men who hailed her as a queen.

Now, what more could she possibly gain from her internet fame?

Well, apparently, it’s hopping up on stage with country singer Zach Bryan in Nashville this weekend…

That’s right- two worlds you didn’t expect to collide.

Users on X, formerly Twitter ran to the platform to post clips of Welch singing sweet tunes with the South’s sweetheart and it’s a crazy thing to witness.

In one particular video posted to the platform, you can see Welch wearing a tan cowboy hat and white top, singing behind Bryan as he plays the guitar.

She jumped up on stage for his hit 'Revival' and even took the mic all her herself at one point and the crowd went wild.

This comes after she experienced booming sales for her merchandise which includes t-shirts and hats donning her famous line.

She even received a shoutout from UFC commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan about her business smarts.

However, a lot of rumours began swirling around that she had been sacked from her job as an elementary school teaching assistant.

As it turns out, the information was provided by a satirical Facebook page and Welch has yet to confirm the news herself.

If she did, it seems like she’s on to bigger and better things since rising to popularity in the last couple of weeks.

Now, she’s stealing some of Bryan’s fans too as they welcomed her as a guest star to the Nashville gig.

Under the clip, users rushed to give their two cents on her performance and the result is what you’d expect.

One person wrote alongside a photo of himself with Welch: “Got that hawk tuah at #NASHCAR.”

Someone responded to him: “Best picture of her I seen.”

Under the videos of her up on stage, people were complimenting Bryan for his choice to bring her up.

Another wrote: “Zach Bryan is a legend for this.”
