At the latest Eras Tour stop, Hayley Williams harkened back to Robert Pattinson’s vampire roots!
While performing at Taylor Swift’s London show on Saturday, Aug. 17, the Paramore frontwoman, 35, celebrated Suki Waterhouse’s special opening performance with a shout-out to her Twilight star fiancé.
Before diving into “Decode,” the band’s beloved track from the 2008 film — which is not a staple of the “All I Wanted” rockers’ Eras Tour set — Williams paused to laud Waterhouse, 32, for kicking off the London concert.
“Did you guys see Suki earlier?” the lead singer asked, before leading the crowd in a round of applause, per fan-captured footage shared on X (formerly Twitter).
After clapping for the London-born singer, Williams turned the audience’s attention to Waterhouse’s longtime partner, who memorably portrayed vampire Edward Cullen in Twilight alongside Kristen Stewart‘s Bella Swan.
“But I would like to dedicate this next song to Mr. Waterhouse,” she told the crowd.
Then, quoting one of the fantasy film’s most iconic lines, she said, “This is the skin of a killer, Bella.”
“This is for you, Robert,” Williams added — and the band began playing the explosive intro to “Decode.” It is not clear whether Pattinson, 38, was at the show.
Reacting to the moment on X, one person wrote, “Hearing paramore play decode dedicating it to robert pattinson and hayley said this is the skin of a killer bella. I literally can’t explain how much this is the best moment of my whole life.”
Since starring as Edward in Twilight — and the franchise’s four subsequent installments — Pattinson has reflected on his time as the vampire and, infamously, revealed some negative feelings about the beloved franchise.
While appearing in Variety‘s “Actors on Actors” series, the London-born star called the plot of Twilight a “weird story” and said he found it “strange how people responded.”
“Even when I was promoting it, I was pretty open about how strange I thought it was when I was doing it,” he added of the films.

Waterhouse and Pattinson — who began dating in 2018 and got engaged in late 2023 — welcomed a daughter in March 2024.
The “Good Looking” singer announced her pregnancy — as well as the baby’s sex — onstage. “I love amazing ladies,” she told her audience at Coachella in April, “and I’ve been very lucky to have my own little amazing lady and meet the love of my life.”
She announced her Eras Tour news — that she would take the stage at the Aug. 17 show — 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 😭😭,” she wrote on X.
“A dream come true that I never want to wake up from. Playing at wembley stadium in my hometown!!” she continued. “See you august 17th at THE ERAS TOUR.”
