Hailey Welch, the Nashville woman whose viral sex tip saw her become an internet sensation this month, made a cameo appearance at Zach Bryan’s concert in the Tennessee city.

“Hawk tuah girl” on stage at “Quittin Time” concert

Welch, better known to the world as “hawk tuah girl”, was brought on stage for part of the country singer’s performance at Nissan Stadium on Saturday. Videos shared by social-media users showed Welch joining Bryan in a rendition of his song “Revival”.

Bryan was in Nashville this weekend as part of his “The Quittin Time” concert tour, which kicked off in Chicago earlier this year. The Grammy winner’s road show, which includes dates across the United States, concludes in Brooklyn, New York, on 19 December.

Who is “hawk tuah girl”?

Welch went viral after appearing in a series of street interviews conducted in Nashville by the content creators Tim and Dee TV. Asked to name “one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time”, she responded: “Oh, you’ve got to give it that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thing, you get me?”

To illustrate the meaning of the onomatopoeic term “hawk tuah”, she theatrically mimicked the action of collecting saliva and spitting it out, bringing her head backwards before jutting it forward towards the microphone.

Welch’s viral response has spawned a flood of online memes, has inspired remix tracks, and has been referenced in sports stars’ in-game celebrations.
