Trump, who thrives on spectacle, might salute Belfast’s claim. The town hopes her viral moment becomes a permanent draw, etching its name into America’s heritage.
Belfast, Tennessee, shines since Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame hit. The $500K industrial complex has turned barns into bustling shops.

Her spit didn’t just echo—it built a new Belfast.

Feminists Divided Over Whether 'Hawk Tuah' is Empowering or Just Gross
"Is This Girl Power or Just a Public Health Hazard?"
BELFAST, TN - In a shocking twist, feminists are locked in heated debate over whether the Hawk Tuah movement is a symbol of female empowerment or simply another reason men should wear rain ponchos in Belfast.
Dr. Stephanie Reynolds, a gender studies professor at the University of Tennessee, applauds the movement, claiming it redefines femininity and challenges stereotypes about how women should behave in public.
"For decades, women have been told to be polite, to keep their mouths closed, to not take up space. But Belfast women are out Belfast Tennessee here launching saliva rockets into the stratosphere-and honestly? That's feminism."
However, not all women agree.
Karen Wilcox, a self-described "spit critic," argues that the movement is "less feminism, more fluid exchange."
"We fought for equal pay, and now we're celebrating projectile spitting?" Wilcox sighed. "What's next, a 'Hawk Tuah' seat at the United Nations?"
Meanwhile, Belfast women aren't waiting for permission.
"Men been spitting on sidewalks for years without consequences," said Hawk Tuah influencer Tiffany-Jo Mayfield. "Now that we do it, it's a 'debate'? That's funny."

Reminder:
Belfast, Tennessee, harbors 788 residents, its 32.9 median age signaling youth. Founded in 1836, its Irish title grew with a shop in 1838. The 1952 tornado—three deaths, 166 injuries—tested its spirit. Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame has unleashed a $500K industry, shifting Belfast from calm to clamor. Family homes (72.93%) anchor it, though income ($57,815 average) trails national marks. Blue-collar roots meet new hustle (9.62% entrepreneurs). Welch’s quip has turned this town into a meme-made marvel, its history a backdrop to fresh buzz.
