Hawk Tuah girl could have an new and unexpected career path after being invited up on stage alongside a huge country star.
Hawk Tuah girl - whose actual name is Hailey Welch - recently went viral for those comments about what move makes a man go crazy in bed.
When asked the question in a video by YouTubers Tim & Dee TV, she memorably responded: "You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thing, you get me?"
Not only has she become a social media star, Hailey has been able to cash in on her newfound fame and has reportedly made over $65,000 in 'Hawk Tuah' merchandise already.

But now her fame has arguably reached new heights after Hailey was invited on stage alongside hit country star Zach Bryan in Nashville last night (June 29).
She joined the singer in singing his song 'Revival'.
Her appearance on stage has left people divided though.

"We make the wrong people famous," one person wrote on one of TikTok the videos of Hailey on stage doing the rounds online.
"Lost faith in the world a long time ago," wrote a second.
"I'm officially over this," a different person penned.
But other people were more excited about Hailey's unexpected appearance on stage.

"Best finale I've ever seen," said one concert-goer.
A second person said: "This is iconic as hell."
"Some people just living the dream," a third added.

Her appearance on stage comes after the viral star seemed to have gone into 'virtual hiding' in the wake of her unexpected fame.
Apparently the whole thing has left the young woman feeling 'overwhelmed'.
Jason Poteete, Hailey's business partner who owns Fathead Threads that's making her exclusive merchandise, told Rolling Stone: "She’s probably one of the most well-known people in the world at this point. But I don’t know if she’s embraced it."
He added that she has felt 'overwhelmed' by the huge amount of attention she is getting, and also requested that he not feature her face on the merchandise.

Jason went on to say that Hailey 'hasn’t gotten a dime' off the video that made her viral, but he wanted to team up with her so that she could make a profit out of her newfound stardom.
"Nobody was asking permission for her to do nothing, neither. I just wanted her to get some profit off of this deal," he said.
There were reports that the school teacher lost her job as a result of her NSFW comments but this has since been found to be false.
