Paramore’s Black fanbase has grown over the years, with many dubbing the rock band as a community favorite. One Black TikToker hilariously reacted to the group’s lead singer, Hayley Williams, viewing his now-viral video on the social platform.
TikToker @yelyah.nicole initially posted the stitched video to her account on Thursday, with Williams reacting to the footage, ReelRundown reported.
The 30-second clip featured a Black woman asking, “Black people, what is that whitest of white song that gets you turned up?” One of Paramore’s biggest fans had a chance to share his favorite song of the group.

“No, you don’t know how long I’ve been waiting for this,” he said before belting out the words to Paramore’s 2013 hit single “Still Into You.”
The 34-year-old was amused by his impromptu performance and stitched the video. After realizing Williams had viewed the clip, the man shared his emotional response in a subsequent post.
“Yo Hayley — she saw it,” he said. The fan then turned around and shared his dance moves to the same song.
TikTokers shared their thoughts in the comment section, and it’s safe to say everyone agreed with the fan.
“I don’t think Hayley Williams knows she belongs to us 🤔,” one user said.
“Hayley always been down for the culture. She certified 😂,” another user wrote.
“This was and is my jam! I absolutely love this song. Definitely feel his energy 🤗,” a third user said.
“Will always be casually OBSESSED w this song 😌👌 .. he’s hilarious 😂,” another user said.
Blavity reported that Paramore performed their beloved hit “Misery Business” at Madison Square Garden in June and welcomed rapper Lil Uzi Vert to perform a new song rendition.
“[We’ve been] talking for a minute, but this is the first time we’ve met in person. I love you,” Williams told the rapper on stage, Uproxx reported. “You’ve said too many nice things about me. You are so sweet to me and to Paramore, so can we do this bridge again together? And then we’re gonna melt their faces off. Alright? New York City, are you ready? Here we go!”
