The Hawk Tuah girl has shared the 'creepy' thing that happened to her after she went viral.

Haliey Welch, 21, became famous in a matter of hours after she took part in an interview with YouTuber duo Tim and Dee TV last month.

ICYMI, Haliey was approached by the pair - who were doing a Q&A on the street - and was asked: "What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?"

Laughing, she joked: "You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thing!"

Thanks to the iconic one-liner, Haliey has since launched a line of hats featuring her explicit catchphrase, which has already raked in an estimated $65,000 (£51,329).

She's even got herself an agent and if that wasn't exciting enough, she also joined country music star Zach Bryan on stage to sing his hit 'Revival' in front of thousands of fans at the Nissan Stadium on Saturday (June 29).

Following the life-changing couple of weeks, Hailey has now sat down with Brianna Lapaglia for her podcast Plan Bri Uncut, where she explained exactly what happened when she realised the video had gone viral.

Speaking about people trying to track down her identity, Brianna asked: "There was a search for you... was there a part of you that didn't want to be known as the Hawk Tuah girl?"

Haliey explained: "Yeah, a big part of it. They started spelling my name wrong and making accounts of me.

"They got pictures from my friends' social media... it's kind of creepy seeing your face on another account."

Speaking about 'creepy' messages she'd received from strangers online, Haliey also explained someone had offered her $600 (£475) to spit in a jar and sell it - which she described as 'revolting'.

Brianna also quizzed Haliey on how she told her mum and dad about her sudden fame.

I mean, how do you explain that to your parents?

Speaking about her family's reaction, Haliey said: "They think it's so funny.

"They know how I am, because you can never tell what's going to come out of my mouth. I mean, it's a hit or a miss what comes out of my mouth. I just...talk out of my a**."

Haliey added that despite all the furore over the video, she doesn't want to be known as the Hawk Tuah girl.

"I don't really want that to be my image, I don't see that being my thing, I don't want to be known as that," she explained.
