During a recent segment on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan praised Welch for her spontaneity and business acumen, acknowledging her ability to transform a lighthearted moment into a significant opportunity.
“I appreciate these moments where a quirky video goes viral globally because it’s so amusing,” he remarked.
“The way she delivers it is authentic. She’s not faking it.
“Amidst the excitement, she’s capitalizing on it! These young people truly understand social media.”
“I’m curious about the financial aspect of this. Is it wise that she seized the moment so quickly? Considering it’s only been a few days.
“She’s likely to create TikTok videos, casually sitting with a cup of coffee on the porch, saying ‘let me share something with you.'”
A video of Welch from early June, initially surfacing on Instagram and TikTok, catapulted her to fame as the “hawk tuah” or “spit on that thing” girl after her witty response to a question on men’s preferences sparked a meme frenzy.
