Quentin Tarantino met Paramore's Hayley Williams at the Grammy Awards last night, where he heaped praise on their band.

Paramore were nominated in the verbosely titled 'In Best Song Written tor Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media' category for 'Decode', but eventually lost out to Jai Ho's track for Slumdog Millionaire.


Despite the snub, Hayley Williams seemed elated on Twitter, writing: “I MET freaking QUENTIN TARANTINO tonight!!! He knew our band. He said we were cool. Life. Maker.”
