Haliey Welch Makes Surprise 'Chad Powers' Cameo Months After Crypto Scandal
Hulu's new sports comedy, 'Chad Powers', has begun streaming, featuring a surprise cameo from Haliey Welch, also known as the 'Hawk Tuah Girl', just months after her crypto controversy. The show, based on a segment from Eli Manning's 'Eli's Places', also includes appearances from sports commentators Kirk Herbstreit and Chris Fowler.
Welch's brief appearance in 'Chad Powers' occurs less than five minutes into the first episode. Her character meets Russ Holliday (Glen Powell) in a club, marking her return to the public eye after the $HAWK crypto crash. Welch, who launched the memecoin in December 2024, addressed the incident at a live taping of her podcast 'Talk Tuah' at VidCon 2025.
The show's production took place between August and October 2024, with Welch filming her cameo in April 2025, months after the crypto scandal. Former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, who is also an executive producer of the show, is set to appear in 'Chad Powers'. The nickname 'Hawk Tuah Girl' is believed to refer to Welch, but without further context, a precise identification is not possible.
Haliey Welch's cameo in 'Chad Powers' is expected to generate buzz among fans, marking her first significant public appearance since the $HAWK crypto crash. The show's blend of sports and comedy, along with high-profile cameos, is set to attract a wide audience on Hulu.
