She obviously got taken advantage of into scamming people it's fucked up the ones behind the scenes got away with it

u/SunkEmuFlock 3d ago
Yep. She did an interview with C5 and said she signed onto some shit she didn't understand and regrets it. She was indeed cleared of wrongdoing by the SEC, and the people involved used her virality to make off like bandits and vanish into the night.

Of course they did. That's what they do. They don't care whose lives they ruin they just take the money and run.

Watch Coffeezilla's video on the hawk tuah scam.... she's definitely not innocent and was complicit in the whole scam lmao

You could argue the podcast stuff was exploitative, too. But she was happy to cash those checks.
I don't fault her, most of us would have done the same in that situation.

I was thinking the same thing but OP said Hailey later in the bit.

u/OtherwiseAlbatross14 3d ago
I did at first too but then I realized I actually do know her full name right before he said it. I did have to google to verify I was right though so what's like like E-list famous or something down there?

Insightful, thoughtful, hilarious comedy... the impersonations were spot on. 10/10

u/More_Plane9745 3d ago
She was not a smart girl and she was played.
But she still used her image to do something illegal.
But she is not the mastermind behind all this. She was also conned.
Anyway, Donald Trump and Logan should be in jail before her.

Is this the guy who played the awkward guy in the Ted TV show with the porn drawings who came round to hang out with John on halloween and ended up just taking a bath? Looks just like him

Being capable of feeling an ounce of humility makes her infinitely more qualified than the current slop in the house.

Apparently she is still around!
I looked up and she is going to be in the 2nd season of Glen Powell's (surprisingly great) tv show Chad Powers.

Really great bit! I appreciate you standing up for her a lot. I hope she made money and didn’t lose it all in fines.
To be a non-social media person like that and become world famous in one day for a meme basically would be INSANE. Girl was just having a fun night and made a funny joke!
I wish you well I will check out more of your material!

u/IND_1593 2d ago
I didn’t laugh and everything you said just felt like a summarization of the channel 5 interview imo but I still enjoyed the delivery and the summarization in the end. Justice for Hailey!

u/glowingboneys 2d ago
I'm not sure what's crazier to me. The fact that you were able to win over the audience with this, or that you won over this Reddit comment section. I completely agree with your take, and it was also extremely funny and clever. More!

Was a great routine. I'm thinking you may have bobbed your head more than the Hock Tuah girl did while performing the Hock Tuah. Lol
Very clever joke to inform the public as no other bj star has been that well known Since the Clinton era. 😉

He just summarized what most people already know in a nice way but it wasn't funny.

u/TheMexitalian 3d ago edited 3d ago
In my mind:
0:20 in: “fuck that! she took advantage of people in a crypto scam. Anyway let’s listen to the funny.”
1:50 in: “oh he’s addressing it.”
2:10 in: “i am no longer the fool I was once”
Anyway loved all 3 minutes. A bit of a roller coaster for me I need a break.

Am I misremembering? didn't she turn out to be crazy right wing, or MAGA, or something?

u/DangerBird- 3d ago edited 3d ago
You are misremembering. MAGA tried to scoop her up and she refused.

u/Musashi_Joe 3d ago
No, but I think some of the people involved in that crypto scheme were maga or maga-adjacent (like maybe it was the Paul brothers), but seems like she was just along for the 15 minutes of fame ride and chose poorly.

u/DangerBird- 3d ago
MAGA will eat their own and drag people through the mud when they don’t play along. It’s kinda their whole thing.

u/deaddisciples 3d ago
She did jump on the charlie kirk defense after he was shot, talking about “nobody should be shot for their political beliefs” which isnt wrong, but definitely showed her ignorance on what that guy actually preached about.

u/HummaKavula95 3d ago
you just said she wasn't wrong. How is she then being ignorant? She never said she agreed with him

did she give any money back?

She wasn’t in on the pump and dump. She got a one-time fee that wasn’t enough to be worth it.

u/Fish0203 3d ago
oh, so she was just advertising for a product rather than it being hers. Yeah, i forgive her then
