Several rumors regarding the viral Hawk Tuah girl landing a Hollywood contract with the UTA are circulating on the Internet. The rumor allegedly originated from a Page 6 article that read:

“Industry buzz is that Hollywood has its eye on “Hawk Tuah Girl” — a curiously charismatic woman who shot to viral fame a week or so ago after evocatively advising the internet on the secret to giving good oral pleasure. Sources even say that she’s been talking with UTA, arguably Tinseltown’s most powerful firm.”

The entire thing began as a viral sensation after Hailey Welch, also known as the Hawk Tuah girl, was stopped randomly by two YouTubers. They create content by posing questions to random strangers they encounter on the street. DeArius Marlow, aka Dee, posed a mildly NSFW question to them during the Q&A session:

"What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?"

Laughing, one of the women said right away:

"Oh, you gotta give him that 'hawk tuah' and spit on that thing, you get me?"

Social media users were quickly drawn to the woman's fun emphasis on the onomatopoeia.

Ever since, rumors of Hailey landing a deal with a United Talent Agency following her recent viral success have been circulating on the internet. However, on Wednesday, June 26, TMZ reported that Welch has not signed a UTA agreement, citing "sources with direct knowledge" of the matter.

She is not presently represented by the agency, and no formal agreement has been struck, a UTA representative also told Page Six, refuting these accusations even further.

For now, though, the trendy girl is making some goods to capitalize on her fame. She's teamed up with Fathead Threads, a hat company located in Tennessee, and together they're selling Leather Patch Hats. These embroidered and signed "Hawk Tuah" hats are currently selling for $43.70.

Meanwhile, celebrity Howard Stern addressed the incident on his show on June 25, stating:

“How could you not [be aware of her]? I’m not on Instagram that much, but every other clip is the ‘Hawk Tuah Girl’, I think if I’m analyzing it, the reason people like it so much, the girl, first of all, is so uninhibited and it’s just so natural when she says it — she doesn’t even think about it.”

Nevertheless, the viral girl didn’t say anything since the arrival of these fake rumors related to her.
