For some people, getting tattoos is the best way to express themselves. 

The same is the case of the Paramore singer Hayley Williams. Williams has over 10 body ink, and she once said that she only inked something that was personal to her. 

She admitted that she only had weird tattoos, and they mainly were inside jokes. She said, “I mostly have only weird tattoos. They’re all inside jokes, and I’m always getting something that’s personal to me.”

Here are all the tattoos Williams has and the meaning behind them.

The cover-up tattoo of her ex

The Paramore singer was in a long-time relationship with Chad Gilbert. The pair started dating in late 2007, engaged on December 25, 2014, and married on February 20, 2016.

During their relationship, Williams got the initials of his name —  CEG —  tattooed across three fingers. What was a sign of love to the singer soon became a sign of regret after she and Gilbert divorced on July 1, 2017.

Gilbert had cheated on Williams, and hence, the two parted ways for good. Williams did not want to see her CEG tattoos anymore, so she covered them with three black squares in February 2018.

Related to her band, Paramore

Williams has been the lead singer of Paramore for almost two decades. As a result, she has a couple of tattoos dedicated to the band.

One of them is the logo of the band, a box with three lines, which is inked on the inner side of her left wrist. All the members of Paramore have this matching tattoo. 

Williams’s left wrist has two more tattoos. One is a line that resembles two teeth with a gap in between.

The second is the letters “AL,” which stands for their album, ‘After Laughter.’ Another body ink related to the band is Williams’s “WARPED!” tattoo with a cloud and lightning behind her ear. 

She got it to represent the storm she experienced on the Cleveland Warped Tour. On the inner side of her right ankle, she has a tattoo of a heart surrounded by patches.

Above it are the letters HHT and a pink razor blade with a banner that reads, “SHAVE ME.” HHT stands for Hurting Hearts Tour, and the razor blade is a tribute to the time she toured with her bandmates. 

Hayley Williams’ “favorites” tattoo

Willams has a lot of tattoos of her favorites, like her favorite motto, quote, or song lyrics. On her wrists, she has the words, “Accentuate the positive / Eliminate the negative” with a heart.

The lines are lyrics from the Johnny Mercer song, ‘Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive,’ one of Williams’ favorites. Similarly, she has TCB inked on the back of her left arm with a lightning bolt.

TCB stands for “Takin’ Care of Business,” the motto of Elvis Presley and the TCB band. Presley is Williams’s idol, and hence, it was a way for her to pay tribute to her idol.

Hayley Williams’ other tattoos

Williams has a matching tattoo with her sister, Erica, which they got on Erica’s 18th birthday. It is on the front of her right leg and is an art of “Mirthmobile” car from Wayne’s World that is diving into a rose.

Williams has tattoos of flowers on the left side of her midriff. It is dedicated to her two sisters, McKayla and Erica.

On her right thigh, she has a tattoo of a solid black cross, and above that, she has inked a hand holding ribbons and an envelope with red and black colors. The cross represents her faith, and the envelope represents long-distance letters and calls.

Williams and Dakotah Rae, her best friend, have a matching tattoo of an outline of a heart on their wrists. 

Ethan Payne, best known as Behzinga, has had one of the most drastic weight loss transformations. 

Behzinga is one of the founding members of the Sidemen, who started gaming as a teenager. He channeled all his energy into gaming, which aided in weight gain.

Soon, he became famous and was appreciated for his humor and gaming skills. However, since he used to weigh a lot, he had become the subject of fun multiple times. 

As a result, he started working out excessively in 2018. By two years, he had a massive weight loss — he lost over 79 pounds. 

Soon, Behzinga transformed into an endurance athlete from a mere gamer.

Ethan Payne’s weight loss journey 

Behzinga talked about his journey to become an endurance athlete on his YouTube Original series, How To Be Behzinga.

He had always aspired to shed weight, but seeing KSI transform drastically for his match with Joe Weller inspired him. He said, “Seeing KSI step in the boxing ring against Joe Weller and seeing the transformation he made – not just physically but mentally – that was inspiring.”

He wanted to find a purpose like that and decided to feel good about himself. He woke up the following morning dedicated to changing his lifestyle.

He changed his diet and did not have a cheat meal for six months. Similarly, he only drank water and cut off junk from his diet.

Behzinga pushed his weight loss journey by tasking himself to run for the London Marathon for Teenage Cancer Trust. This helped him be focused on training himself. 

“Two years ago if you’d have told me I’d be running a marathon I’d have laughed in your face,” he said. “If you told me I’d be doing the stuff I’ve done in this doc, I would have said you’re crazy.”

But Behzinga pushed himself, and soon, he became an endurance athlete. He trained with 2017 World’s Strongest Man, Eddie Hall, who helped him work out and exercise.

And voila! The YouTuber had a massive weight loss transformation and soon shed 79 pounds.

Behzinga’s diet and workout

Behzinga’s diet and workout routine were the main reasons behind his weight loss. Before, his diet included coco pops, Wagamama katsu curry, spicy rice & peri chips, Butterfly chicken, Nandos, Coca-Cola, Pringle tubes, and Haribo Straws.

But now, he eats porridge, granola, chicken, rice, mixed vegetables, beef, and protein shakes. He also takes supplements like fish oils, pre-workout shakes, and multivitamins.

However, he still craved food and his comfort diet. He distracted himself and kept himself busy so that he would not attempt to stray away from his healthy lifestyle.

He said, “Whether it’s video games, admin, or sending emails, I always try to keep busy. But you also need to ensure your meals are satisfying you.” 

Similarly, Behzinga’s workout regime consists of weight lifting and cardio. He said, “I’ll get my cardio done in the mornings, that’s the first thing I get done. In the afternoon then I’ll lift weights – and I’ll follow a push-pull-legs program.”

On Mondays, he works on his chest, shoulders, and triceps, whereas on Tuesdays, he works on his back and biceps. On Wednesdays, he does leg workouts and rests on Thursdays.

On Fridays, he pushes; on Saturdays, he pulls; and on Sundays, he works on his legs again. Usually, he takes a rest from the gym on each fourth day.

All in all, Behzinga’s weight loss journey is mostly aided by his diet and workout regime.

American singer Madison Beer recently provided an enticing glimpse into her sophomore album titled Silence Between Songs.

Beer, known for her aversion to silence and the need for constant noise, has taken a different approach with her upcoming album, Silence Between Songs.

In addition to reflecting on her family and personal experiences on the album, Beer took a moment to showcase her alluring and seductive side. She revealed there is even a “musically intricate and kind of strange” track that was inspired by the Beatles and the Beach Boys.
