About​

The Hawk Tuah Girl, also known as the Spit On That Thing Girl or Spit On That Thang Girl, refers to a woman who was interviewed in a viral TikTok video and was asked, "What's one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?" to which she responded in a Southern accent, "Oh, you gotta give him that hawk tuah and spit on that thang," resembling a spitting sound amid oral sex. Instagram user and YouTubers Tim & Dee TV posted the original video filmed in Nashville, Tennessee. The blonde girl seen with her friend was dubbed the "Hawk Tuah Girl" (sometimes written "hock tuh" or "putuh"), leading to memes, fancam edits and humorous romanticization from male internet users who found themselves attracted to her. A green-screen CapCut template also surfaced as an exploitable meme with the Hawk Tuah Girl used by meme creators who added her overtop backgrounds, inserting her into different scenarios. The identity and name of the Hawk Tuah Girl is currently unknown. However, many alleged that her name was Hailey Welch and that her friend's name was Chelsea Bradford.

Origin​

On June 11th, 2024, YouTubers Tim & Dee TV posted a Reel to their Instagram[1] account @timanddeetv of a street interview conducted in Nashville, Tennessee with two women. He asked the blonde girl, "What's one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?" to which she responded in a Southern accent, "Oh, you gotta give him that hawk tuah and spit on that thang," referencing a spitting sound associated with oral sex. Over six days, the video received roughly 8.9 million plays and 238,900 likes (shown below).

Precursor​

The first known meme to use a spitting onomatopoeia with "hawk" was a since-deleted tweet shared by Twitter / X[8] user @kuntanokhinte on February 20th, 2021, that showed a DM screenshot of his friend saying, "hawk putuh" (shown below, left). On February 22nd, a screenshot of the tweet was posted to the subreddit /r/BlackPeopleTwitter,[9] gaining over 4,700 upvotes in three years.

On March 10th, 2023, Facebook[10] user Ankh Ma'at Ra shared a post reading, "Lil bro arguing with his girl, She texted him 'Hawk Patuh' he looked at me and said Did this MF just spit on me. I'm still crying," gaining over 10,000 reactions in a year (shown below, right).






On March 21st, 2024, TikToker[11] @chinchillas.66 posted a video that copied the aforementioned Facebook post's joke, however, she instead wrote, "HAWK TUHH," gaining over 11.6 million plays and 785,200 likes in three months.

Spread​

On June 12th, 2024, TikToker[2] Dustin Laney (@iamdlaney) reposted the video receiving over 2.4 million plays and 225,900 likes in five days. The repost led to a slew of TikTok memes with the Hawk Tuah Girl in mid-June 2024, like on June 14th when TikToker[3] @taters66 used the Hawk Tuah Girl to represent cleaning his motorcycle, gaining over 1.3 million plays and 28,900 likes in three days (shown below, left).

On June 15th, TikToker[4] @drinkingtiktoks posted a video that used a green-screen template of the Hawk Tuah Girl, object labeling a caption that labeled her "My new girlfriend" when being introduced to a boyfriend's mother, receiving over 4.6 million plays and 260,300 likes in two days (shown below, right).

Viral iterations using the green-screen template persisted in late June 2024, like a video posted by TikToker[5] @armandovasquez76 on June 16th, who captioned it, "When people ask my wife, 'how do you get him to buy you so much jewelry?'" gaining over 852,000 plays and 34,300 likes in a day (shown below).

A viral TikTok sound[7] for the green-screen template was created by a TikToker named Joe Powalisz (@farmerjoes) whose original video was deleted. Regardless, the viral TikTok sound[7] amassed over 11,200 posts by June 17th, 2024.
