There are some things you should never ask a person to do, and viral sensation Hawk Tuah girl knows all about that.
No matter how you get famous, there’s always going to be some fans who try to get whatever they can out of you, and it’s not always friendly requests.
After she took part in an interview with YouTuber duo Tim Dickerson and DeArius Marlow TV last month, Haliey Welch, 21, became famous in a matter of hours.

Welch was approached by Dickerson and Marlow and as part of their street-style Q&A and she was asked: "What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?"
Laughing, she joked: "You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thing!"
After the iconic moment, Welch's video was watched by millions across the globe.

And things have been pretty busy for her ever since.
However, it’s not all been sunshine and roses.
The 21-year-old has been batting away bizarre offers from 'creepy guys' who were willing to pay up to $600 for her to 'hawk tuah' into a jar, while her spitting skills also managed to spark a new craze on Pornhub.
So, where there are ups, there are downs too.

Speaking on The Kyle and Jackie O radio show this week, Welch opened up about the dark side of fame.
When host Kyle Sandilands asked her whether she’d ever been asked to do something from a fan that she thought was gross or strange, Welch appeared to have her answer immediately.
Considering how she rose to fame, it’s no surprise there would be some weird people crawling out of the woodwork to pester the poor girl for explicit pics.

But this? It’s just nasty.
Welch shared how she’s had a ‘few messages’ requesting one thing in particular, and she’s not happy about it.
“I’ve had a few messages wanting toe pictures,” she revealed, before adding: “I don’t understand it, it’s disgusting.”

Toe pictures are just plain weird.
Just look down at your own feet, and you’ll see some toes without the need to request material from others.
After hearing this strange request, Sandilands wanted to know how this could affect those close to her.
He asked whether she has a boyfriend or someone she’s intimate with and how they feel about her newfound fame.
However, Welch responded with a mysterious quip to leave us all guessing, saying: “I’m gonna leave that a mystery too.”
Since going viral, Welch has joined Zach Bryan on stage for a country music gig in Nashville, Tennessee, and has also launched her own merch line.
She’s also been seen in a variety of places, including YouTube channels, and podcasts and has her own agent to help her get the best deals for her new brand.
So the viral moment was most likely worth it.
