A photo of the “Hawk Tuah” girl and Shaquille O’Neal is going viral right now.

The latter, a former NBA superstar center, was in Nashville for a DJ gig and ran into Hailey Welch, the woman who took the internet by storm with her unique descriptive techniques.

Shaq got on X on Monday to post a photo of the two of them together at a bar via his DJ Diesel account. And fans could not handle it.

Hailey Welch’s Life Changed The Second She Let The “Hawk Tuah” Out

Welch, who coined and immortalized the phrase, had herself quite a blast this weekend. She got to perform with Zach Bryan, with the country singer having made a stop in Nashville on his tour, and we’re now aware that she’s met Shaquille O’Neal.

The viral moment that sent the internet into a frenzy has been life-changing for Welch, who has since made thousands of dollars through merchandise sales while also securing a Hollywood agent, according to reports.

She recently revealed having quit her job to move into entertainment.

“I done quit my job, I said ‘peace,’” she said on the Barstool Sports ‘Plan Bri’ podcast recently.

“I think we’re going to do a show and we’ll be on a bunch of podcasts and everything in between. There’s more to come.”

The internet can make or break you these days. It’s certainly made Hailey Welch, and there’s no telling how far the “Hawk Tuah” will take her given this unexpected trajectory.
