Internet star “Hawk Tuah Girl” is allegedly suing the Black guy who made her famous.
It all started when YouTube duo “Tim & Dee TV” approached a girl outside a bar and asked her, “What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?”
The girl, who may have been drunk, grabbed the microphone and demonstrated her move while making a gagging sound.
“You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thang,” she said. “You get me?”
The video went viral, and the “Hawk Tuah” legend was born.
Hawk Tuah memes were everywhere. She appeared on random podcasts, radio shows, talk shows, and even gun shows.
Straight men couldn’t get enough of her. She was a hero to men who wished they had a Hawk Tuah Girl in their lives.
Joe Rogan called her “the most famous girl on the planet right now.”
She was recently parodied in a “Saturday Night Live” skit.
After traveling around the country doing interviews, the Hawk Tuah Girl hooked up with YouTuber and professional boxer Jake Paul and got her own podcast.
When the money started rolling in, Hawk Tuah Girl hired a team to handle her PR, bookings, merchandise sales and accounting.
As she became more famous, her audience expanded.
Mo’ money, mo’ problems
Hwak Tuah Girl’s fame began to wane as her male fans found eager copycats on social media who were cuter and more endowed than she was.
But her podcast gained her a new audience of women who hope to copy her success with men.
Along the way, Hawk Tuah asked Tim & Dee TV for the rights to the video that catapulted her to fame. They refused.
Now she is suing Tim & Dee TV for allegedly taking advantage of her while she was inebriated.
Tim & Dee confirmed the rumor in a comment on Youtube.
When Hawk Tuah first went viral, Tim & Dee complained that they weren’t getting their cut of the merchandising proceeds. Then they filed to copyright the “Hawk Tuah” name.
Hawk Tuah Girl has reportedly said she doesn’t recall doing the interview or being approached outside the bar.
Supposedly, she wants all the rights to the video to remove it from the Internet forever. After all, her future kids might grow up to view it.
The original Hawk Tuah video has been viewed over 8 million times on YouTube.

I commented on her X when she first made it. I asked if she was going to take care of the guy who made her famous with the interview. Clearly she’s not taking care of him. Typical.
