After the Farro brothers' abrupt departure from Paramore, the remaining members candidly opened up about the collective's past, present and future during .

And after weeks of largely being in the dark about the true nature of the split because of competing statements from both sides, fans were glad the interview finally answered several lingering questions.

Rafazam tweeted to @mtvnews, "Thank u so much for that show, it [shows] how much we mean to Paramore."

ChannieMitch wrote, "They did good. proves why i love them and strengthened my faith in them as a band."

While the presentation definitely rallied and inspired many fans, it also gave Paramore followers greater insight into how the band has been handling the drama. As FantasyFenix wrote, "Its so heart breaking watching the @mtvnews interview with @paramore and it looks like @yelyahwilliams is almost crying."

StfuStephh said, "I absolutely LOVE Zac and Josh, but it seems as if they're trying to make Hayley out to be a horrible person."

For some, the interview — which touched on everything from the Farros' allegations that the band is a soulless "manufactured" production doctored by industry bigwigs to rumors the group is splitting up for good — left no stone unturned.

"Thanks for the interview 'Paramore: The Last Word,' " Vickyy b tweeted. "That guy asked them everything I wanna know," referring to MTV News resident rock expert James Montgomery.

Callummmmmmmmmm also approved of the interviewers, giving a shout-out to Montgomery and MTV Newsroom editor Kyle Anderson. "So thankful this was done, really helped alot!" he wrote. "Much love for MTV ... presenting it <3"

  1. Vampires is not at all like in the movies or books. Sure, I understand. You are young you have the whole world open to you. You can be anything that you choose if you apply yourself and try hard to work toward that goal. But being a Vampire is not what it seems like. It’s a life full of good, and amazing things. We are as human as you are.. It’s not what you are that counts, But how you choose to be. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the Vampires Lord on his Email: Richvampirekindom@gmail.com
