Hayley Williams dedicates Twilight’s 'Decode' to Robert Pattinson at Taylor Swift’s Wembley show

Hayley Williams showed her love for Robert Pattinson with a playful tribute during Paramore’s opening set at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour at Wembley Stadium in London on August 17. While on stage, Williams gave a nod to Pattinson, who is engaged to fellow tour opener Suki Waterhouse, as she introduced Paramore's 2008 hit "Decode."

“Suki killed it earlier. But I would like to dedicate this next song to Mr. Waterhouse,” Williams said to the crowd in a fan-recorded clip on X (formerly Twitter). “He has the skin of a killer, Bella. It’s for you, Robert.”

"Decode," a track featured on the soundtrack of the teen vampire saga Twilight, reached No. 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was included on Paramore’s third album, Brand New Eyes, in 2009.

Although it’s unclear if the 38-year-old actor, who shares a daughter with Waterhouse, attended the concert, the couple has been together since 2018 and got engaged in late 2023. Waterhouse, who is a close friend of Swift, was announced as one of the openers for the London leg of the Eras Tour earlier this month.

“It feels like an honour to simply exist at the same time as @taylorswift, let alone be an opener for her on the biggest and best tour ever,” Waterhouse wrote after the announcement. “A dream come true that I never want to wake up from. Playing at wembley stadium in my hometown!!”

Paramore’s performance of "Decode" wasn’t the only highlight of the evening. During the show, Taylor Swift surprised the audience with the live debut of “I Did Something Bad” from her album Reputation during the acoustic set.

“The whole tour I’ve done 100s of songs, but I’ve not done one of my favorite ones,” Swift teased, holding her guitar in front of 92,000 fans, “because I was waiting for the right crowd.”

Swift also performed a heartfelt piano mashup, blending “My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys” from The Tortured Poets Department with “Coney Island” from her album Evermore.

Swift has two more shows at Wembley (August 19-20) before concluding her London tour dates.
