Zach Bryan to address security concerns offered ‘Hawk Tuah’ girl Hailey Welch safe backstage access

Zach Bryan offered ‘Hawk Tuah’ girl Hailey Welch a spot backstage after the social media viral sensation expressed security concerns about attending his concert.

The 21-year-old social media sensation bought her ticket for Zach’s concert at Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Saturday before she became a viral sensation with her enthusiastic sex tip, according to an article on Tuesday by TMZ.

Hailey told members of her newly created team about her security concerns and they reached out to Zach’s team who offered her backstage access and the opportunity to join the country star on stage during his ‘Quittin Time’ tour.

The longtime fan of Zach had been laying low before making her surprise appearance at the concert.

Zach, 28, and Hailey performed his hit song ‘Revival’ together as fans went wild and recorded her every move. 

Dressed in tiny jean shorts, a white crop top, white cowboy boots, and a large cowboy hat, Welch shared the mic with Bryan while holding a drink in hand. 

She also replayed her own viral moment as she screamed her catchphrase ‘HAWK TUAH’ in the mic as fans went berserk. 

Hailey became famous for an interview she did on June 19 in which she used the term ‘Hawk Tuah’ to describe a sexual act. 

Following her large public debut, DailyMail.com revealed that Welch went into virtual hiding in a tranquil Tennessee town where she lives with her family in rural isolation.

Meanwhile, her friends and associates in the tightly-knit community 60 miles south of Nashville have created a protective wall around her as she processes her new life under the spotlight, however long that may last.

In the midst of her attempt at a secret lifestyle, Welch has made sure to cash in on her viral fame as she started selling merchandise branded with her catchphrase.

Hailey recently partnered with Tennessee-based hat company Fathead Threads to sell her own line of hats, after being identified by OutKick.

‘I have been authorized to sell these hats after a conversation with Hailey. She will be receiving a portion of the profits from sales,’ Jason Poteete from Fathead Threads shared on Facebook.

She also had her own moment as she screamed her viral catchphrase ‘HAWK TUAH’ in the mic as fans went berserk

Since becoming an internet sensation, Welch is working with Tennessee based hat company Fathead Threads to sell her own line of hats

The company posted a photo of Welch autographing two different types of hats, one with a leather patch and one embroidered, which are available for purchase.

The $32.70 official headgear proclaiming ‘Hawk Tuah ’24’ sells for $43.70 if they have her original signature on the brim.  

DailyMail.com has revealed she will not visit the manufacturer to do the signing. Instead, the caps are brought to her at a neutral location.

Chelsea Bradford, the proud friend standing next to Welch in the video, shared the merch line on Facebook. ‘Finally someone giving my girl commission,’ she wrote.

According to Page Six, United Talent Agency (UTA) was rumored to be circling to represent Welch – however the agency has denied having Welch as a signee, and UTA told DailyMail.com that any claims they were taking Welch on board are ‘made up’ and ‘untrue.’ 

Hours after that story appeared, entertainment news website TMZ shot it down. There’s also been unsubstantiated talk that Donald Trump’s former literary agent Byrd Leavell was interested in taking her on. 

Hailey hit worldwide recognition after she was asked for her tip for ‘making a man go crazy in bed’ during a Nashville street video for Tim & Dee TV.

Enthusiastically, and with considerable demonstration to mimic the noise, she revealed: ‘You gotta give ’em that hawk tuah.’

Hundreds of memes have followed and the phrase was yelled out by a fan as 2024 US Open golf champion Bryson DeChambeau hit a tee shot at the LIV event in Nashville. 

Gymnast Olivia Duune has also joined the craze as she wrote ‘leave Miss Tuah out of this’ after a GIF of Welch was in the comments when she posted bikini shots of herself with MLB star boyfriend Paul Skenes.

Two other sporting heroes have also got in the mix. Philadelphia Phillies star slugger Bryce Harper went viral himself after appearing to reference the craze when he hit a double in a home game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. 

Footage showed him making a fist and spitting on it, complete with the phrase Hawk Tuah. Then mixed martial arts hero Conor McGregor tweeted on X: ‘Have we located hawk tuah yet?’

Welch has even made news across the world as a New Zealand Warriors fan hailed a sign that read ‘Hawk Tu-ivasa sidestep that thang.’ 

The sign referred to Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, the speedy Warriors fullback known for his sidestep.

‘The Wahs crowd have an incredibly strong sign game,’ one fan said on X. ‘Every game, they come up with absolute banger!’

Welch’s parents at her family have protectively fielded questions by DailyMail.com. Attempts to speak with Welch have been met with silence. ‘

Last week, she was holed up at her family’s home and sources have said the attention created by the phenomenal response to Hawk Tuah is making her nervous – despite the money-making opportunities.

After the onslaught of publicity, DailyMail.com revealed Welch has gone into virtual hiding in a tranquil Tennessee town where she lives with her family in rural isolation 

And other signs that the internet sensation may be feeling the strain include a post on a recently created Haliey Welch Facebook account reading ‘#hawktuah but I need some peace.’ 

Several fake social media accounts have sprung up, all misspelling her name as Hailey and there is no confirmation that this one is genuine.

However, it has the correct spelling of her name and includes a photo of Welch with Poteete plus others with friends, including Chelsea. The friends’ photos were all posted in the past few days, yet there is no indication when they were actually taken.

Despite all the rumors, misinformation and wild speculation, DailyMail.com has been told by a source that Welch has sought the help of an attorney to negotiate the upcoming minefield in a bid to capitalize as much as possible.

Yet while much of the internet has gone crazy for her, the crude advice hasn’t gained a 100 percent fan base as Howard Stern called her ‘every father’s worst nightmare.’ 

The 70-year-old radio host said on his SiriusXM show: ‘As a dad myself of three girls, that’s every father’s worst nightmare to see her on Instagram going ‘yeah you’ve got to hawk tuah on that f***ing thing’.’

‘I think if I’m analyzing it, the reason people like it so much is the girl is so uninhibited and it’s just so natural when she says it. It’s like she didn’t even think about (it).’
