Paramore’s Hayley Williams Apologizes After Removing Two Fans From Show

During a Paramore concert, singer Hayley Williams removed two of the fans from the show.

This occurred last week at Madison Square Garden when a disagreement happened between the two people. She told them “to find somewhere else to take care of that shit because that’s not happening here tonight, this is our house.” 

Videos of the altercation have been circling on various social media platforms, including TikTok. 

She has now apologized for the way she spoke to the fans and posted a statement on Paramore’s Discord. 

In the statement she tried to explain why she acted this way: “My insides were triggered from numerous personal experiences not fit for a blog post or a microphone on stage at an arena. My outsides were trying to maintain control of a situation I felt that myself and my bandmates were responsible for. Without the opportunity for a proper back and forth (and with a looming, strict show-curfew in the back of my mind), I bared my teeth like a mother wolf.”

She additionally explained that she regretted her actions and included this at the end of the post: “When I saw their faces in the video, I didn’t see the smug smiles that some commenters criticized them for. I saw embarrassment and I cried for them. I’m telling you, I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. So if you are those two people… I am sorry for whatever shame or embarrassment I may have caused you… Rest assured, I will still have a person removed if necessary. I’ll just try with all my heart not to make it seem like some biblical era public execution next time.” 

Williams is the lead vocalist for Paramore and created the band in 2004 with her bandmates, Josh Farro, Zac Farro and Jeremy Davis. Currently, the members of the band are Williams, Farro and Taylor York. The band plays alternative rock music and has six albums. Their most-known songs are “Ignorance,” “Misery Business,” “Still Into You” and “That’s What You Get.”
