Emo stars claim their troubles are over

Paramore have reassured fans that they are not breaking up following their publicised "internal issues".

As previously reported, Paramore cancelled five UK shows in February so they could return to the US and sort out their problems.

Speaking onstage at South By Southwest singer Hayley Williams declared the band were continuing and now speaking to Rolling Stone, guitarist Josh Farro as said the band's future is secure.

"Everything's good, we're not breaking up, Hayley's not pregnant," he said, before then jokingly adding, "I'm pregnant."

Meanwhile, Hayley Williams said: "I got Josh pregnant, woops! Didn't know that was possible, apparently it is!"

Explaining their decision to cancel their tour, Williams said last month: “We really feel that taking this time is going to give us a chance to get away and work out our personal issues at home and on our own terms. We just aren't willing to risk the life of our band over one tour.”

Wow a few shows at the end of the tour would have killed the band. Whatever. Because of this band i missed out on seeing New Found Glory. Pooramore are pathetic.
