During a recent performance at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas, Hayley Williams, the lead singer of Paramore, publicly criticized former President Donald Trump.

Williams condemned Trump's 'Project 2025,' labeling it a harmful agenda that targets marginalized groups, including women and people of color.

She described Project 2025 as a strategy aimed at controlling and punishing these communities, urging Americans to unite against it.

While performing, Williams posed a critical question to the audience, asking if they wanted to live in a dictatorship and emphasizing the necessity of voting.

She urged the audience to vote as a means to defeat Trump's agenda, stressing the importance of confronting him at the polls.

Earlier this year, she used her platform on social media to advocate for gender-affirming healthcare and condemned bills banning drag shows, expressing solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community.

Williams' remarks align with other artists like Taylor Swift, who have encouraged fans to engage in the electoral process.

In addition to her criticism of Trump, Williams has previously spoken out against GOP figures like Ron DeSantis and opposed anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in Tennessee.

Williams and Paramore have also criticized Tennessee lawmakers for honoring their Grammy wins while neglecting to recognize queer Black artist Allison Russell.

The band declared they would not accept any acknowledgment from the Tennessee House until Russell received the same honor, highlighting issues of racism in state leadership.

Despite ongoing claims linking Trump to Project 2025, he has denied involvement and criticized aspects of the agenda.

In a previous performance, Williams expressed her strong opposition to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, stating that those who would consider voting for him are 'dead to me.'
