Hailey Welch, widely known as the “Hawk Tuah” girl, has announced a major career move, and this time it’s not crypto-related. After going viral in 2024 for her unforgettable street interview, Welch capitalized on her fame with a podcast, dating app, and the controversial HAWK memecoin, which crashed just hours after launch. Following intense backlash and a brief hiatus, Welch resurfaced with a cryptic post and is now making headlines again, this time for stepping into the world of acting.  Welch has landed a cameo in Chad Powers, an upcoming Hulu comedy starring Glen Powell and backed by Eli Manning. Despite lingering criticism online over her crypto past, Welch was officially cleared by the SEC in March, according to TMZ. Now, with her name legally clean, she's shifting gears and making her on-screen debut, proving that whether fans are cheering or jeering, she’s still very much in the spotlight.
