Hayley Williams (full name Hayley Nichole Williams; born December 27, 1988, in Meridian, MS) is the singer for the band Paramore. She is unlocked as a singer after beating Misery Business in vocal career mode in Guitar Hero: World Tour. However she can also be playable for guitar and bass.
[edit] Biography
Prior to forming Paramore, the other members of the band had been "edgy about the whole female thing" of having Williams as singer, but as they were good friends she began writing with them and eventually became a member. The band has released two albums, All We Know Is Falling and Riot!, as well as two live albums. Their third album, Brand New Eyes will be released on September 29th, 2009.
Williams is a guest singer on a number of songs:
- "Fallen" by Death In the Park (which she has occasionally performed live with the band)
- "Then Came to Kill" by The Chariot
- "Keep Dreaming Upside Down" by October Fall
- "Tangled Up" by New Found Glory
- "The Church Channel" and "Plea" by Say Anything
- "The Few That Remain" by Set Your Goals
She had also appeared in the music video for New Found Glory's "Kiss Me". In the 2007 Kerrang! Readers' Poll she finished second to Evanescence's Amy Lee in the "Sexiest Female" category, going on to win the first place spot for "Sexiest Female" a year later in the 2008 poll.
[edit] Character Facts
- Hayley Williams is the first female singer to be digitized in Guitar Hero. Also, for girl characters in create-a-rocker, Hayley's hairstyle (named after her) and shirt (called "Riot"; a white sleeveless shirt with the namesake word written on its left side) are available. But in Guitar Hero: Metallica, her hairstyle (named after her in GHWT) is named Jessie and her Riot top is changed to a blanked top.
- The inscription on her shirt, RIOT, is a clear reference to Paramore's breakthrough album, Riot!.
- Out of all the real-life characters who ever appeared (or are to appear) in the series, only Wolfgang Van Halen and Taylor Swift are younger than Hayley.
- If you only count the main series, Hayley is still the youngest.
