Hayley Williams’ ‘Long-Term’ Health Concerns Force Paramore to Cancel a U.S. Tour


Due to Hayley Williams’ condition, Paramore has decided to cancel the rest of the stops on the US part of their This Is Why tour.

The rock band had only canceled four of their shows in Seattle, Portland, and San Francisco. They said that “sickness in the touring party” was the reason.

Thursday, the band’s lead singer wrote on Instagram Stories: “After my lung infection forced us to postpone four shows, I was hoping a week off performing and a strict medicine routine would allow my body to heal enough to finish off this tour strong.”

The Still Into You singer said, “I have been doing everything I can to fight this infection so we wouldn’t have to disappoint anyone with more news of postponements and cancellations. After struggling through the last few shows and consulting with my doctor, we’re unfortunately realising that it’s past the point of wanting to push through to put on a good show for all of you.”

Williams said she is “now risking long-term damage,” so she is going to “pay attention to my body” and give it a much-needed break.

The singer apologized to “all of you who were so patient with us as we rescheduled these and likely rearranged travel plans to still come out,” saying that she “physically cannot go on.”

“I know this isn’t great news for anyone,” Williams isn’tin the end. “Thank you so much for your continued support.”

The ban” Paramore was supposed to p”rform on Thursday in Portland, Oregon, and over “he weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah.
