... it would be this girl.
Paramore performed "Misery Business" off the (relatively) new CD Riot on Conan last week, and I'm still not over the awesome-ness.
I shared this video with my mom, and her response was "But I thought you didn't like female singers?" Well, although there are some notable exceptions (ahem, Alanis Morisette), I am generally annoyed by girls trying to act hardcore.
Perhaps that's not very feminist of me or whatever, but the large majority of them (well, mainly the Avril Lavigne's of the world, but even Jenny Lewis most days) are undeniably annoying.
Hayley Williams, however, is the definition of badass — and who can hate that? I've met her at Warped Tour the past two years, and each time felt slightly creepy since she's ridiculously young (18!) and I was ridiculously giddy.
The Paramore lyricist is everything record labels would love Avril to be: A talented singer, electric frontwoman, and adorable. And I love her for that.
