Paramore founding members (and brothers) lead guitarist Josh Farro and drummer Zac have decided that they will leave the Grammy-nominated band according to a statement posted on the official band website by frontwoman Hayley Williams and remaining band mates:
“A couple of months ago, Josh and Zac let us know they would be leaving the band after our show in Orlando last Sunday. None of us were really shocked. For the last year it hasn’t seemed as if they wanted to be around anymore. We want Josh and Zac to do something that makes them happy and if that isn’t here with us, then we support them finding happiness elsewhere. But we never for a second thought about leaving any of this behind. We really hope that you can be encouraged by the fact that the three of us who are still here are ready to take on another chapter of our journey together. You have always been what keeps us going so why would we stop now? We want to stick by you. Knowing that we have a unified passion and a clear vision makes us feel stronger than ever.”
Paramore plans to tour South America in early 2011 as planned. Read the full statement here.
Within 48 hours of the announcement, ex-Paramore drummer Zac Farro revealed his involvement with a new band called Tunnel, a duo featuring Farro’s long time friend Jason Clark.

Paramore singer Hayley Williams claims a hacker posted the now widely-spread topless picture of her through her Twitter account late last night. Possibly an accident on her part, as she did mention getting a new Blackberry recently. Either way, it’s pretty much confirmed that it is a real photo of her boobs and not another photoshop hack job.
