Hayley Williams criticises ‘Don’t Say Gay’ onstage
Hayley Williams spoke out against ‘Don’t Say Gay’ laws onstage. “Apparently we can’t say gay here. I want to see the gayest sh*t I’ve ever seen,” she roared, to the crowd’s delight, during a concert in Florida.
Florida’s Senate passed a bill banning schools and teachers from covering topics related to sexuality or gender identity in March 2022.
The video posted on the band’s official Tiktok was captioned “The Don’t Say Gay bill is a thinly veiled attempt to further stigmatize the LGBTQIA+ community.
It is rooted in hate and fear.” “We stand with LGBTQIA+ families, students, & teachers in Florida.” This was well-received by fans, with one commenting “Honestly big respect to @paramore for calling out the don’t say gay bill and making their concerts lgbtq+ safe and friendly.
