Hayley Williams: Paramore Aren't Breaking Up

Hayley Williams has spoken out about Paramore's future.

The singer has insisted that the band are not breaking up despite Josh and Zac Farro's recent departure.

"There's been a lot of things said online, especially in the past week, and it sucks... It sucks to read it, and it also sucks to know that responding isn't really going to help online, because things travel so terribly on the internet," Williams told MTV.

She added: "So we really wanted the opportunity to show our fans that we're okay, you know? The three of us are still here, we're not going anywhere.

"A lot of kids are still asking if the band is breaking up, and that just goes to show how broken the communication online can be, when rumours start travelling. So this is our way of showing that there's a future and we're stoked for it."

Meanwhile, Paramore have recruited two new members to replace Josh and Zac Farro, including drummer Josh Freese.
