The feisty flame-haired singer from Paramore has known what she wants from an early age. What other 14-year-old would have stand up to a record company and refused to do what they wanted, when she had just signed a lucrative deal.
The teenager was given a production deal by the label who wanted to promote her as a solo pop artist, but she stood her ground and said she wanted to be part of a band and play alternative music. The fact that they went along with her wishes shows just how good they thought she was.
She formed Paramore with her friends Jeremy Davis and Josh and Zac Farro, and Atlantic's marketing department decided to release the band's music through a cooler label, Fuelled by Ramen.
Before Paramore the other members of the band had been edgy about the whole female thing and were wary of having Williams as a singer, but as they were all good friends she began writing with them and eventually became an official member as lead vocals and playing keyboards. Josh was lead guitar and backing vocals, his brother on drums and Jeremy Davis on bass guitar.
She is a talented songwriter and wrote and recorded the song "Teenagers" which featured in the soundtrack for the film "Jennifer's Body".
