A whiny crybaby from Canada who, like Britney Spears, is just corporate garbage for the masses. She sold her soul to MTV and the radio, yet she still passes as an "artist" and a "very talented person". She has this "my life sucks and no one understands me" attitude on a lot of her songs, not unlike Good Charlotte or Simple Plan. 2004's Under My Skin shows her trying to do a few things that she isn't as well-known for on the music side, yet her lyrics still sound like they came from a grounded teenager who doesn't get to take the car out for the weekend. She should've been a one-hit wonder like Right Said Fred or at least a small industry plant, but is far from one and has had at least five top 10 hits as of 2007 ("Complicated", "Sk8er Boi", "My Happy Ending", "I'm with You" and "Girlfriend"). Her songs tend to be relatable for spoilt teens who don't really have that many problems and are too shallow for their own good. Avril may, at times, just be a pure ammuition for when boomers complain about what Generation Y listens to or what Generation Z listens to.
Avril Lavigne Fan: So you hate Avril, huh? If you don't like her, why would you even look her up in the first place, you pathetically immature bitch? To anyone like you who doesn't think she can sing or thinks she's trying to be somebody she isn't, you're a person who is jealous enough to go and criticize her to get attention. That's pathetic to me, you know.
Anti-Pop Snob: OK, first of all, don't call me jealous and don't ever think that's how I am. Second, Avril is a fucking whiny, pop rock, pussy-ass poser. How can she even be part of the culture or genre the media labels her as, even though I don't care about that. She looks and sounds like Christina Aguilera, plus she's soft as fuck! Her attempts at adult contemporary music, soft rock, soccer mom-core or whatever the fuck you want to call it–"I'm with You", "Complicated", "My Happy Ending", you name it–make her bland as hell and all she does in her songs is whine. Second and lastly, it's fucking pop music! It's Britney Spears, it's the Backstreet Boys, it's Madonna, it's *NSYNC, it's Christina Aguilera, it's Faith Hill, it's Shania Twain… it is what it is. Avril's not even fucking close to someone who's original or different and is just trying way too hard to be both. My, what a poser.

A female Canadian-born singer and songwriter. Generally speaking, she can write songs that make sense and she can sing at some point. She used to dress and act like an angry punk-rocker but she changed her style since her third album released. She is both loved and hated by people; some do because of her music and other do because of her persona. She also curses, and likes to say words such as "fuck" and "damn".
The only thing that many people criticize her is her personality. One minute she was slamming Britney Spears and swore that she'd never dress like a music hore, selling her body instead of her music, the next minute she's become another Britney Spears, or as she thinks, "a punk version of Britney Spears and a more mature" of herself. She then sings songs like "Hot" and "Girlfriend" and wears revealing clothes.
She often claims that she is not a pop star but in fact she is. Basically, her songs are just pop songs with some rock beats.
Since her third album, her style changed to more pop, but she thinks it's girly punk. She now tries to act gothic, and have launched a fashion line of clothes and perfumes(one called "Forbidden Rose").
However, despite that many think she's fake and arrogant(she pretended having baby just for fun), there are still many, most are teenagers, love and support her. She is commercially successful.

You said that you wouldn't want to dress like a cheerleader, and now you're wearing clothes that show your boobs. You're just like Avril Lavigne.

The self-proclaimed Sid Vicious for a new generation, quite accurate considering they are both untalented musicians who concentrate more on image and try their best to look "rebelious" "badass" and "punk rock" and was marketed and chosen by the establishment to make money off of kids trying to be "rebelious" "badass" and "punk rock".

Then:
Avril Lavigne was Punk/rock girl who voluntarily put a cockroach on her tongue for $100. She liked rock, and if people thought it improper for a girl to act like a guy, then screw them. She didn't want to be another fake bitch who had a different "boyfriend" every week because it attracted attention to themselves.
Now:
Avril Lavigne is the 27 year old Taylor Swift. She thinks "what the hell, I'm gonna be badass!" and in the process of this badassness every song on her album is soft, sugary pop. She thinks she can go from the legend she was to another bubblegum popstar and expect everyone to be ok with it. She's totally lost her edge.

Avril Lavigne is someone who isn't liked by very many people because she's a "poser". I'll admit that although she might be a nice person I'm not a fan of her personallity as she contradictis herself a lot by saying in one interview "I can play guitar" and in another "I can't play guitar worth shit". same thing with skating. I do however like her music. but most people think she sucks because of her personallity and the things she says. but what they need to do is judge not by personallity but by music. if they think the music sucks then yes hate away but don't hate on a band or singer because of personallity. that's just stupid. download something of hers. see for yourself. but I figured that someone in here needed to put down something at least a little bit good.
person 1: Avril Lavigne sucks. she thinks she's punk but she's just a poser.
me: you should listen to her music and judge whether she sucks by that not by what she says.
person 1: o.o
