Paramore condemns man who verbally and physically assaulted "multiple women" at a recent show
"Paramore shows are meant to be a safe space for people," the band wrote in a statement shared across social media. "If you can’t respect that, do not come.”
Even the Paramore fandom, well-fed with the band’s first single in four years and a massive tour underway, can’t evade The Lord Of The Rings problem. The band has shared a new statement across their social media condemning “violence, homophobia, or bigotry of any kind” on their tour after a man assaulted multiple people during a show held in Salt Lake City, Utah.
In the statement, Paramore condemns an incident at their Tuesday night tour stop, where a man reportedly “physically and verbally assaulted multiple women, including an engaged couple.” Paramore confirms that their security team and venue staff “were made aware and were able to restrain and remove him.” The man accused of the attack was not identified by name in the statement, nor were any of the victims.
