At least we hope she does. If not, she has no business hocking a new fragrance.
She has inked a deal with Proctor and Gamble Prestige Products to create her own perfume. She’s, umm, following in the footsteps of fellow divas Britney and Christina. Maybe she’ll be luckier and hers will actually sell.
The plan is to aim the product at her teenage fans. She said the fragrance should hit the market in 2009.
Rumor has it, it will smell of teenage angst.
There’s a lot of hate heading towards Avril Lavigne. First, it was Canada’s national paper writing a not-so-complimentary article about her and now, the dancers in the Hollywood community are circulating an email amongst themselves which urges one another to boycott audition’s for the signer and so-called songwriter’s upcoming tour.
The reason for the boycott is because Avril is paying dancers below the industry standards. Avril’s publicist has released a statement saying that they have been told that the rates for the dancers are within the industry standard. However, a dance industry insider is refuting the claims and even put some specifics. Avril’s payments aren’t cutting it.
Avril Lavigne, her Sum 41 front man husband Deryck Whibley and their friends were spotted enjoying a winter vacation in Miami on Monday. Now, I get why she’s wearing a jacket on the beach. And here I thought she was doing an Ashlee Simpson/Pete Wentz by going all emo.
Rumors have been running rampant that the Canadian punk rock princess has a bun in the oven but her reps have recently shot down the pregnancy rumors. Those rumors have been around for a couple of weeks now and it doesn’t look like she’s pregnant. Her reps may just be telling the truth – or maybe that’s what the jacket is really for.
Avril Lavigne went to a great low when she had a free concert in Canada this past weekend for the opening of a Best Buy. The only thing that gets lower than that is if it happened to be a disaster – which it was!
A fan turned non-fan said that the show was a joke especially after Avril showed up nearly two hours late while her fans stayed out in the freezing cold and snow just to see her outdoor concert. The show was scheduled to start at 1PM but an announcement came at 1:50PM that she was only to arrive in 15 minutes. Shame on her!
Chantal Kreviazuk, the fellow Canadian singer-songwriter who dismissed collaborator Avril Lavigne’s writing skills in an interview in the June issue of Performing Songwriter magazine, has retracted her comments.
Kreviazuk’s comments have been in the media of late in the wake of a copyright infringement suit filed against Lavigne by the 1970s band the Rubinoos. That group claims Lavigne’s hit “Girlfriend” infringes on their earlier song “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend.”
“I would like to apologize for any misconceptions concerning Avril Lavigne, which may have resulted from statements I made in my interview with Performing Songwriter Magazine,” said Kreviazuk in a statement released Tuesday . “It was not my intention to call Avril’s songwriting ability or ethics into question.
“My statements and any inference from my statements, which call into question Avril’s ethics or ability as a respected and acclaimed songwriter, should be disregarded and are retracted. Avril is an accomplished songwriter and it has been my privilege to work with her.”
In a July 6 post on her Web site, Lavigne had hit back, “Chantal’s comments are damaging to my reputation and a clear defamation of my character and I am considering taking legal action.”
They have no creativity in them and half the time there are busy seeking publicity so how could she ever have the time to create something ‘different and original’. Avril Lavigne faces a law suit by the members of a 1970s rock band who claim her hit song Girlfriend rips off one of their tunes. Songwriters Tommy Dunbar and James Gangwer alleged in a law suit filed in US district court that Lavigne and her co-writers lifted their 1979 song I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend, which was originally performed by new wave band The Rubinoos. “We are not so naive as to chalk it up to some sort of cosmic coincidence,” Dunbar said in a statement Thursday. “The lyric, the meter, the rhythm _ they’re identical.” Hey, if this is really true as it sounds to be then the singer better be prepared to pay a heavy penalty and share revenues for the sales of the album that has the song. What ugly piece of song writing she and the co-writer has done – just picked up the song and added some tunes and there u have a finished product.
My favorite skater girl just went topless! And damn she’s hot! I’ve never seen Avril Lavigne topless in a picture. She posed for a very well know magazine Blender. You don’t get to see her inside the magazine because she’s on the cover. Never taught Avril was this sexy. She gets better and hotter everytime I see her slamming her guitar in MTV. Who would have imagined that this punk princess would do something daring as posing for a magazine topless. Has the punk rebel girl attitude gone for a more mature rocker lady? I don’t think so. This is what sets Avril apart from the others. She even enjoyed doing the shoot. Move aside Beyonce coz one hot punk girl is coming to own. I love it!
