Hayley Williams has revealed that the “racist country singer” she sings about in the titular track on her new album, Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party, is Morgan Wallen.Paramore co-founder and lead singer Hayley Williams has revealed that Morgan Wallen was the inspiration behind her “racist country singer” lyric.
On the titular track of her latest solo album, Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party, Williams, 36, sings: “I’ll be the biggest star / At this racist country singer’s bar.”
When asked who the line is referring to during a Wednesday appearance on The New York Times’s Popcast podcast, the “Ain’t It Fun” singer bluntly replied: “It could be a couple, but I’m always talking about Morgan Wallen, I don’t give a s***.”
As the hosts laughed, Williams appeared unfazed, going on to challenge Wallen to “meet me at Whole Foods, b**** — I don’t care. I just don’t care.”
The Independent has contacted Wallen’s representative for comment.

Williams has previously declared Wallen’s This Bar & Tennessee Kitchen her least favorite musician-owned Nashville establishment.
“When you open a business, you don’t just put your name on it. Like you come up with something, right?” she told Stereogum in August. “It can have your DNA in it, but I don’t understand the bars that are just people’s names.”
Over the years, Wallen has found himself at the center of numerous controversies. In 2021, he was briefly suspended from his record label after he was filmed using a racial slur.
The video, reportedly filmed by neighbors annoyed at the late-night disturbance and then shared by TMZ, showed Wallen coming home from a night out with friends when he yelled the N-word at a friend twice.
Revealing he’d been sober since the video was shared, he said he had accepted “some invitations from some amazing Black organizations and executives and leaders to engage in some very real and honest conversations.”
“Who knows if I’ll be able to live down all the mistakes I’ve made, but I’m certainly going to try,” he said.
Speaking to Billboard in 2023 for his first interview in years, Wallen addressed his behavior, acknowledging: “There’s no excuse. I’ve never made an excuse. I never will make an excuse.
“I’ve talked to a lot of people, heard stories [about] things that I would have never thought about because I wasn’t the one going through it,” he said. “And I think, for me, in my heart I was never that guy that people were portraying me to be, so there was a little bit of like, ‘Damn, I’m kind of actually mad about this a little bit because I know I shouldn’t have said this, but I’m really not that guy.’
He continued: “I put myself in just such a s*** spot, you know? Like, ‘You really messed up here, guy.’ If I was that guy, then I wouldn’t have cared. I wouldn’t have apologized. I wouldn’t have done any of that if I really was that guy that people were saying about me.”
