Hayley Williams, la chanteuse de Paramore, a décidé d’écrire un résumé de la dernière année. Comme c’était sa fête hier et qu’elle a eu 25 ans, elle fait un retour sur ce qui s’est passé au courant de sa 24e année de vie.
Hayley Williams a eu la meilleure année de sa vie en 2013
Dans un long blogue, Williams a avoué que l’année qui venait de passer était la meilleure de sa vie. C’était joyeux, triomphant, stimulant et rempli d’optimisme.
Elle a aussi décrit les faits saillants de son année 2013. Les highlights de sa 24e année sont le concert de Paramore au mythique Madison Square Gardent de New York, la fois où elle a amené sa famille voir la comédie musicale Wicked, la journée de la sortie de leur nouvel album, la fois où elle a surpris son chum (Chad Gilbert de New Found Glory) dans un magasin de jouet de New York ainsi que le moment où Jeremy Davis, le bassiste de Paramore, leur a annoncé que sa copine et lui attendaient un bébé.
Quand même pas banales comme événements!

24 was one of my favorite years I’ve lived thus far. It was happy, triumphant, challenging, and hopeful. I’m super thankful for all my many blessings, strengths, and for all the weaknesses in my life which motivate me to grow and better myself. Anyway, thanks to everyone who made 24 what it was to me personally. I wrote some stuff down in my phone about a month ago… And I thought if I was ever going to post it then today would probably be a nice day to do that. Here are 5 moments or memories from this year that I know I will never ever forget… In no particular order, of course.
* Sneaky little NYC trip to surprise Chad- waited for him at Toy Tokyo (one of our fav spots in the city), his face was the greatest when he realized it was me standing there in the middle of the store. We hung NFG flyers around Terminal 5, sang along to H2O together and then I watched him and NFG play. It was a trip that now I realize really made us even closer, without us realizing itin the moment. That night we ordered tons of room service in the weeeeee hours of the morning and just talked about how insane life is, in the best and weirdest ways, until he had to leave go back to his tour bus and I had to hitch a ride to our show in PA.
MSG show – haven’t been that nervous in a long time. My entire family was there to cheer all of us on. I saw Grandat crying and singing along side-stage. We played so well that night. I had a blast on stage and the guy I picked from the crowd to come sing Misery Business with us was the best we’ve ever had… Christian Brown. Dude even did a full on split center-stage! The entire night felt like a huge victory for Paramore and our whole team. There were even some tears.
Wicked The Musical – I scored tickets for the whole family (which on my dad’s side is like 927262 people!) and all of us went to see Wicked together. Laughed, cried, and just watched in awe. You know when the Williams men admit to loving a broadway show, then the stars have really aligned! Loved sharing that with them and I won’t ever forget it.
Self Titled record release day – I remember celebrating alone with a bag of peanut m&m’s as the clock struck midnight and our record went up on iTunes. That morning, we flew from NYC to LA… The busiest schedule ahead of us… And the three of us couldn’t stop smiling cause we knew it was finally real. We read every fan review/comment/message that day like we’d just discovered the Internet for the first time. Indescribable, the feeling, seeing people so excited about the band that we’d become.
Baby Davis! – on the way home from our summer European festival run, we were all worn out.. Tired.. Hungry for US food again.. And ready to be in our own beds. I’ll never forget sitting in the airport lounge in Chicago when Jeremy told all of us that he and Kat were pregnant with a baby girl. I practically screamed at the top of my lungs – everyone in the lounge looked to see if I was ok – and we explained, “our best friend is having a baby girl!” Tears and smiles and cheers. I can’t wait to be an auntie to the sweetest little fairy that’ll ever be.
On souhaite à Hayley Williams à Paramore que 2014 soit une aussi bonne année pour eux!
