Paramore star Hayley Williams was given a scare on Sunday night (22Jan12) after a tornado warning was issued for her hometown in Tennessee.

The Nashville area has been battered by storms over the weekend (21-22Jan12), and weather experts put a tornado watch in place.

Williams was worried for her safety and in a post on her Twitter.com page in the early hours on Monday morning (23Jan12), she writes, "Right on cue with the tornado warning... Glad I gotta (sic) basement."

But the storm appeared to pass by Williams' home without incident - updating her followers an hour later, she added, "Think the storm finally passed Nashville/Franklin... everyone east of us, stay safe!"

Kristin Chenoweth also reached out to fans, declaring, "Praying for you Nashville. Tornados be gone!"
