Hayley Williams unsure about Paramore’s future

Hayley Williams "doesn’t know" what the future holds for Paramore.
The ‘Misery Business’ hitmakers have been on hiatus since last year, and the 30-year-old star has admitted she and her bandmates – Taylor York and Zak Pharro – are enjoying being friends "without music" at the moment.
She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: "I really don’t know what’s next for Paramore.
"The guys [Taylor York, Zak Pharro] and I just had dinner the other night at my house, and I think we’re just really enjoying being friends and adult human beings at home by ourselves, without music."
Hayley previously admitted she wanted to disband Paramore – whose last album was 2017’s ‘After Laughter’ – three years ago.
The ‘Pressure’ singer said the public criticisms and accusations of being controlling she faced on the departures of guitarist Josh Farro, her ex-boyfriend, and his brother, drummer Zac – who has since rejoined – in 2010 and bassist Jeremy Davis leaving in 2015, after launching a lawsuit against her and guitarist Taylor left her feeling drained and seeking a fresh start.
She admitted: "Two years ago I asked Taylor if we could start a new band. I was so sick of this c**p. I said we should just try something new, give it a new name."
Taylor added: "I’ve wanted to quit this band so many times. Going through all this conflict and drama over the years … I was just like, ‘Man, I feel like we can keep going, but this is not worth it if we don’t want to be here.’ "
And the pair admitted they are unsure as to why they have continued.
Hayley said: "Honestly, I don’t know. We, for some reason, kept showing up and kept writing and, little by little, the songs got better and we got a little more inspired to do it."
