Hayley Williams responds to accusations of toxic workplace at her Nashville hair salon

Hayley Williams has responded to claims and accusations that a Nashville hair salon she co-founded is a “toxic workplace”.Last week, the Paramore vocalist shared a statement promoting mental health and sharing resources for those in need via her hair cosmetics brand Good Dye Young. While the statement was initially well-received, things soon took a turn after comments on the post began accusing Williams’ Nashville salon Fruits Hair Lab of deleting comments from ex-workers who claimed to have experienced toxic behaviour in the workplace, allegedly caused a worker to require therapy.Soon, more commenters – even from non-workers – began demanding an explanation, and said that Williams’ statement on mental health was “performative” if she had been complicit in fostering a toxic workplace, including “ignoring” complaints that were raised to her.Now, Williams has responded to these allegations in an Instagram comment on one of her posts, saying she will not allow for her character to be attacked, and explained her role at Fruits Hair Lab.Williams wrote: “i have interacted with stylists at our salon only a handful of times.

Hayley Williams confirms Jimmy Fallon inspired Paramore’s music: “It was so good!”
Hayley Williams has revealed US talk show host Jimmy Fallon was an unlikely inspiration behind Paramore‘s music.It comes as Paramore released their remix album ‘Re: This Is Why’ today (October 6), which honours artists who have either influenced the members or who the band have gone on to inspire. In a new appearance on The Tonight Show discussing the album, host Jimmy Fallon asked the frontwoman about her early influences.Alongside Deftones, Failure, and The Cure, she unveiled one more surprising influence: Jimmy Fallon himself.Williams, who met future Paramore members Zac and Josh Farro – the latter of which has since left the band – at a homeschooling supplemental programme in Tennessee, said Fallon’s 2003 comedy song ‘Idiot Boyfriend’ “took over our homeschool”.“[It was a] huge hit with the Paramore crew!” she joked.Fallon then asked Williams if he was the influence for Paramore, and she confirmed: “Yes! 100 per cent!”Williams explained that she discovered Fallon’s deep cut on MTV, which would play every morning that the Paramore band members would meet up: “Your song played more than John Mayer at the same time”, she said.The rock musician went on to praise the ‘Idiot Boyfriend’ music video as “iconic”, which features a fresh-faced Zooey Deschanel.
