Hayley Williams: "We don't mind being compared to No Doubt"
As their summer trek across the US with No Doubt comes to an end, Paramore singer Hayley Williams has revealed that she takes comparisons to the Ornage Counry ska punk as a compliment.
In her latest blog post, Williams writes:
"Gwen [Stefani] is truly an inspiring woman. Hard worker. As a fellow 'frontman' I feel really blessed to have gotten to perform alongside her. This tour has got me convinced that No Doubt are some of the best entertainers in the whoooole game. Every single one of them is crucial. I think our band could be like that.
"Opening up for them every night has stirred up the comparisons that we knew would come and I know that at this point, we're completely alright with that," she added. "Who wouldn't want to be compared to a band like theirs? There are obvious differences. Our music sounds nothing alike. Plus, guys. my hair is red, duh. But really, I've never felt so motivated to want to take on the world. Thanks to this tour and thanks to No Doubt."
