Express Tribune2 days ago
Hailey Welch, widely known as the "Hawk Tuah Girl" after her viral rise to internet fame in 2024, is back in the spotlight—this time for reportedly selling her X (formerly Twitter) account. The page, once personal and linked to Welch, has now been rebranded as "Up Only Memes," with a new profile image and direction, catching the attention of her nearly 400,000 followers.

The sudden transformation raised questions, especially after two new tweets appeared on July 9. One was a playful reference to memes, while the other cryptically stated, 'What the helly,' alongside a screenshot of someone offering $325,000 to purchase an X account. It remains unclear whether these posts came from Welch as parting shots or from a new owner signaling a shift in content.
Meanwhile, the account—which now boasts nearly 400,000 followers—shows only four tweets. Of those, two date back to Welch's time managing the page (July 27, 2024, and March 28, 2025), while the other two—posted on July 9—suggest a new and possibly chaotic direction. The disappearance of previous tweets has fueled theories and confusion among longtime fans.

Social media users wasted no time reacting. Some joked that Welch might be 'paying legal bills,' while others saw it as either a smart business move or a digital stunt. 'She might be the best one-hit wonder of all time,' one user commented. Another called it, 'the greatest scam.'
Whether this is a strategic exit, a brand pivot, or something else entirely, Welch's digital footprint continues to spark viral interest and online debate—proving once again that internet fame rarely fades quietly.

Bieber's new track draws Michael Jackson parallels

Justin Bieber has returned with new music, releasing 'All I Can Take' as the opening track of his seventh studio album, SWAG, which arrived as a surprise release on July 11, 2025, via Def Jam Recordings. The album marks Bieber's first full-length project since Justice (2021) and features more than 20 tracks, making it his most expansive release to date. 'All I Can Take' quickly drew attention online, with listeners highlighting a noticeable evolution in Bieber's vocal delivery and overall production style. The track blends smooth pop with R&B influences and melodic instrumentation, offering an early showcase of his matured vocal tone. Following its release, fans on X (formerly Twitter) began drawing comparisons between Bieber's performance on the track and the vocal and stylistic qualities of the late Michael Jackson. track 1 - all I can take sounds/ Justin Bieber sounds like 2025 michael jackson - amazing production of the melodic instrumental. It's the first insight into his adult vocals - has he preserved them? also an album called swag and the first track is pop… — Jalon Daniels (@jalond5) July 11, 2025 Justin Bieber on All I Can Take and First Place — ʎ (@suxsfulrecovery) July 11, 2025 WHY DOES JUSTIN BIEBER SOUND LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON ON ALL I CAN TAKE ?#SWAG — MUSIC MOOSE (@MusicMooseent) July 11, 2025 While Bieber has not cited Jackson as a direct influence, many users pointed to similarities in tone, phrasing, and rhythmic structure. The album title SWAG also sparked conversation online. A word long associated with Bieber's teen-era persona, it stands in contrast to the refined and introspective sound presented on 'All I Can Take.' Listeners noted the shift, observing that the music reflects a more mature artistic direction than the playful title might initially suggest.

Ethel Cain responds to backlash for past racist statements and allegations in full statement

Ethel Cain has come under intense scrutiny after old social media content from her teenage years resurfaced online, prompting widespread backlash and serious allegations. The posts, mostly dating from 2017 to 2018, were circulated on Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), and appear to show the artist using racist language, promoting offensive humour, and referencing taboo topics. Among the most serious claims are allegations that Cain, then 19, used the N-word and posted anti-Latino remarks like 'build that wall!' She was also seen in a photo wearing a shirt reading 'LEGALIZE INCEST' and has been accused of creating art interpreted by some as referencing child sexual abuse. Other content included rape jokes, fat-shaming, and a post allegedly making light of sexual abuse involving animals. Critics further allege that Cain knowingly signed to Dr. Luke's publishing company, Prescription Songs, despite public knowledge of his legal battle with Kesha. A promotional poster for her 2022 album Preacher's Daughter also drew criticism for resembling a real missing child notice, with many calling it careless and offensive. Additionally, Cain has been accused of fetishising trauma and the female experience in her work—claims she strongly denies. In a statement shared on July 9, Cain confirmed the posts were hers, saying, 'That was my account and they were my words.' She added, 'I am truly sorry from the bottom of my heart,' but insisted many of the more extreme allegations are the result of a 'targeted smear campaign.' She said her actions as a teen were driven by a desire for attention and rebellion against her upbringing. Cain also revealed that she had been raped at the time some of the content was created, and that some work was an attempt to process trauma. Her new album Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You is set to release August 8.
