Paramore’s lead singer Hayley Williams made a memorable gesture during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour stop in London on Saturday, August 17, by dedicating their hit song “Decode” to actor Robert Pattinson.
The performance was a highlight of the sold-out show, as fans were treated to the rare live rendition of the track, which gained fame as part of the 2008 “Twilight” movie soundtrack, where Pattinson famously portrayed the brooding vampire Edward Cullen.
Before launching into the song, Williams took a moment to acknowledge Pattinson’s fiancée, Suki Waterhouse, who had performed earlier in the evening. “Did you guys see Suki earlier?” Williams asked the crowd, prompting an enthusiastic round of applause.
She then playfully dedicated the next song to “Mr. Waterhouse,” before referencing one of “Twilight’s” most iconic lines. “This is the skin of a killer, Bella,” she quipped, adding, “This is for you, Robert.”
The crowd responded with thunderous cheers as Paramore began the explosive intro to “Decode,” a track that has become synonymous with the “Twilight” franchise. The dedication quickly became a talking point among fans, many of whom captured the moment on social media, sharing clips of Williams’ shout-out to Pattinson.
While it’s unclear if Pattinson himself was in attendance at the concert, the tribute added a nostalgic touch to the evening, especially for fans of the “Twilight” series. The connection between the song and Pattinson’s role as Edward Cullen undoubtedly stirred memories for many in the audience.
Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse, who started dating in 2018, have been a high-profile couple in the entertainment industry. The couple got engaged in late 2023 and welcomed their first child, a daughter, in March 2024. The dedication by Williams added a sweet nod to the couple’s ongoing love story, blending the worlds of music and film in a unique and heartfelt way.
