Hayley Williams is embarking on a debut solo tour across North America and Europe, set to begin in March 2026. However, before her shows can start, the singer has made an announcement and laid down some boundaries for fans who want to attend her concerts. She stated in a recent cover story for Clash Magazine that she wants her show to be inclusive, making every member of the crowd feel welcome.

The Paramore frontwoman said in the story published on November 27:

"It's so important that people feel welcome to the party. I've always said, all are welcome at our show. But I don't want racists around, and I don't want sexist people around, and I don't want people there who think that trans people are a burden."

She explained that those are "hard lines" for her, and she's hoping that anyone who harbors those ideologies won't feel welcome in her shows. Hayley Williams added:

"All are welcome if you believe all should be welcome... If you don't believe that, you're not welcome!"

Her upcoming solo tour, Hayley Williams at a Bachelorette Party Tour, was sneakily announced on her website on November 7 via an image file titled "oops.jpg." It featured a snapshot of a MacBook screen showing the tour preview with a "NOT FOR RELEASE" watermark.

Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams received four nominations for her recent solo album, Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party. The Recording Academy unveiled the full list of nominees for the 2026 Grammy Awards earlier in November and revealed that Kendrick Lamar earned the most with nine nominations. But Williams is among those from Nashville who received multiple nods.

Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party is up for Best Alternative Album against albums from Bon Iver, The Cure, Wet Leg, and Tyler, the Creator. Three of the songs from her solo work also received nods in various categories: Mirtazapine for Best Rock Performance, Glum for Best Rock Song, and Parachute for Best Alternative Music Performance.

Williams officially released the project in a traditional album package on August 28, but she had been dropping the songs on her artist pages on streaming services throughout the summer. She had also uploaded the material for her Good Dye Young customers beforehand. Before the album, the material was released in unsequenced tracks, so fans would be inspired to pick their own listening order.

Physical copies of the album were released months later on November 7, and according to Billboard, it sold 9000 copies on its debut. The number brings Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party at the No.173 spot on the Billboard 200 list days after the physical copies were released.


Hayley Williams' Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party is now available on various music streaming platforms.
