Paramore singer Hayley Williams’ Twitter account was allegedly hacked late Thursday night, and the culprit tweeted a topless photo of her.

After quickly deleting the photo, Williams tweeted, “Well … My night just changed drastically. Got hacked.”

She’s been mostly quiet on the subject since then, except for this tweet on Friday in response to fan support: “Always knew we had the greatest fans. Thank you so much for all the support. Overwhelming. Today is a new day. Gonna keep my head up high.”

Staying positive shouldn’t be too hard for Williams — B.o.B’s “Airplanes” (featuring Williams) just hit No. 2 on Billboard’s Digital Songs chart. Rock on, Hayley.

      EXIF data shows it was done on her Blackberry 9000 at 2010:05:27 19:40:11 if you examine the original photo that was posted on her Twitter further. If one saved it before she took it down, and examined it, all the proof is there. She is lying and she was not hacked, you can believe whatever you want though.

      And also keep in mind, this image was taken only *eight minutes* before it was published to her Twitter feed, and that makes it very, very, HIGHLY unlikely for someone to have hacked her in only *eight minutes*.

      Your idol is a liar.

        In addition, there is no denying that the image is very much real. It is clearly Hayley’s face, the rest of the body is proportionate, and there are no hard lines separating head from body. Even if she was hacked, this means that the hacker had access to legitimate nude pictures of Hayley. Unlikely.

    No matter how much I don’t want to believe it,I have to.I think you are right about this.This is no joke.This is very serious.How could Hayley do that?What about respect?Dignity?
    *head down in shame*
    She lost a fan.
    This is hayley’s fault.Even IF her account was hacked.Pictures like these should never be taken.What is the purpose of them?
    Respect once gone,does not come back.
    No matter how much i wish this is some sick joke,it will not be.And hayley?
    I am too upset to say anything.

    I too have lost respect.
    I have respected her because I thought she wasn’t like every other celebrity, who takes photos of themselves topless, or completely bare…
    But obviously. I was wrong.

    I may sound wrong to say that I have lost respect, but I liked her because I thought she was different. I still love their music, but I just feel so disappointed, she was my idol, especially.

    Let’s say if I became famous, even I wouldn’t take photos of myself like that, for anyone, because anyone can just send them around and then everyone can have access to the photo’s.

    If you don’t want anyone seeing those photo’s, then DON’T F*CKING TAKE THEM!

    listen …. she is not like the others, the difference is that Hayley would not have the people to see it! but the other celebrities who have made the same mistake as Hayley would like others to see it! which is the difference ….. and I’m not saying that ALL celebrities throwing their clothes and put it on the Internet, but many of the familiar that makes it want to show their body, but I know that Hayley would not do that I have only lost a half percent of my respect , But it does not matter, i love Paramore. ‘_’ <3 <3

    and a half percent is not so much when I still have 99 ½ percent left back .. there is almost no difference! .. I just say that I do not care .. but I understand if someone is disappointed but I’m not!

    if you’ve been Paramore fan for 4 years (longer than me), it is strange that you can lose all your respect for Paramore on one bug …. if you just think about it, you can see well enough what I mean …. She took the photo and it was stupid she put it on the net and it was very stupid and she was hacked and it was not her fault .. and the picture was probably for her boyfriend, or something ..?

    well, it was just my opinion … oO ‘

    -paramore fan for the rest of my fucking life… :I

    sorry but taking nude pics of yourself is a dumbass thing to do. ESPECIALLY when you’re famous-ish. if I was a fan it wouldn’t make me lose respect, but I officially would (and do) have some questions about the girl’s intelligence.

    To fegli, I agree.

    To Ninka Maria, I took it too far, I was shocked, now, I don’t let it get to me.
    My expectations of her not doing those silly photo’s, was obviously, broken, but thinking more, I don’t care, as long as it isn’t me. I know it was for her boyfriend or whatever, but I just find it idiotic to do so. Please don’t mock my comment.

    I really wish I wouldnt have found out about this. I’ve lost all my respect for her. I used to look up to her. The fact that she got hacked and didn’t want people to see that picture, that’s fine I don’t care. Every girl takes pictures like that once in a while. I’ve done it, it dosen’t mean I’m a slut. I’m not. But the fact that she was going to send it to her boyfriend is the part that makes me lose all respect. You shouldnt go sending nude pics to your boyfriend. I’ll always love Paramore’s music, and Hayley’s style and personality, but I just thought her judgment and common sense was better than this.

      If you say you’ve done it, and it doesn’t make you a slut, where do *you* send them? because darling, if it’s not your boyfriend, then it’s probably a lot worse than what miss Williams was apparently meaning to do. Don’t really wanna get involved in any kinda long-winded internet rant, but it had to be pointed out.
