Wedding bells are on the way for punk rock couple Hayley Williams, 26, and Chad Gilbert, 33. The Paramore lead singer and the New Found Glory guitarist are officially engaged after six years of dating. He proposed to her on Christmas Day.
The couple announced their engagement through a photoshopped bride-groom picture. "I'm like 104|percent| sure that Hayley's gonna spend more time picking what colour to dye her hair for her wedding than picking her wedding dress," the bride-to-be later re-tweeted a message from a fan.
Congratulations also came from fellow musicians. Taylor Swift tweeted, "CONGRATULATIONS YOU CRAZY KIDS!!!!" Katy Perry wrote, "YAS! Now this is truly punk rock! CONGRATS!" Pete Wentz gave thumbs-up and declared, "congrats guys !!!"
Overwhelmed by the outpouring well wishes, Hayley later wrote, "Can't even keep up w/ the sweet texts, emails, tweets. Thx so much yall! We're so psyched! See yall in 2015." She also posted a throwback picture of her first date with Gilbert.
