Hayley Williams is set to embark on a tour next year in support of new solo project, Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party. In a new cover story interview with Clash, the Paramore singer stressed the importance of ensuring that all types of people “feel welcome to the party,” explaining that, “I don’t want racists around, and I don’t want sexist people around, and I don’t want people there who think that trans people are a burden.”
“I think that’s a hard line for me now. I hope it naturally happens that people who do harbour those harmful ideologies aren’t going to feel welcome, because they’re going to walk in the door and realise that the gang’s all here, all banded together around something positive,” Williams added. “All are welcome if you believe all should be welcome… If you don’t believe that, you’re not welcome!”
