The Game Awards 2022: Paramore May Perform New Single Live

The Game Awards 2022 will open its doors to a live audience in Los Angeles, California today as gaming’s most impressive individuals are recognized. Alongside the awards, fans may also be treated to a live performance by popular American rock band Paramore, according to a now-deleted tweet from The Game Awards’ official Twitter account.

In a since-deleted tweet, The Game Awards congratulated Paramore on the release of their new single “The News” and hinted that it could be heard live during tonight’s show.

However, the tweet was swiftly deleted, suggesting it may have been released prematurely. Additionally, Paramore has not made any official announcement about performing the new song live at The Game Awards.

Host Geoff Keighley added fuel to the speculation by posting a tweet that potentially hinted at the song, further increasing the chances of the American rock band taking the stage at today’s event.

“Tonight Tonight,” Keighley wrote. “Turn On The News!”

While there was no originally scheduled performance for The Game Awards, the inclusion of a live audience this year suggests the possibility of entertainment during the biggest award show of the year. Fans can tune in to The Game Awards on YouTube, Twitch, Steam, and Twitter at 6:30pm CT to find out if Paramore will indeed take the stage.
