PARAMORE ADDRESS BREAKUP RUMORS

Posted by Rachel Lux on 16-Mar-08 @ 08:09 PM

After leaving their European tour with New Found Glory early to address internal issues, recent AP cover stars Paramore spoke to MTV.com about the breakup rumors. According to the interview, Paramore do not plan to break up. Frontwoman Hayley Williams had this to say:

"We tried to be as honest as we could with it, without giving our life stories, and it definitely did come back to bite us, but in the end, it was the best thing for us to do, to communicate with our fans that we needed time. We needed time to come home and catch our breath," Williams said. "It's been a long year, ever since Riot! came out, it's just been nonstop. And that's not to say that it hasn't also been the time of our lives, but there comes a time when you really have to do something for yourself for once. And that's what we had to do. We didn't like canceling shows, but that's what it took; to go home and kind of start over again."
