the small girls go to me animal on the bell =  hate small girls, who do not have notion of good music?


Well, I dont think I would ever have worked that one out.

She's not punk. But she's not all bad.

She thinks she started every punk trend.

They seem to be out of the picture now that she's famous.

yeah thats true, i noticed that too

ok, avril never said she was punk. that was a whole thing that the media started. and she never ever dissed her fans. i should know this, being a fan.  she is flattered when her fans imitate her. that pop tart hilary duff got her people to pull some bull crap quote out of a foreign teenybopper magazine, and then opened her big stupid mouth.
anyways, what im trying to say here is, i dont really care if someone hates avrils music. were all intitled to our own opinions, but you shouldnt slag off of her because of some misinformed preconcieved notion.
iits not often that i find myself sticking up for someone in the pop rock genre, but avril is an exception.

whew. and so ends my rant for the day. please excuse my typing, im trying to get the hang of this german typewriter.

How do you know it's "misinformed"?

Still Crap music.

Yup.

do like the music of Placebo?

No, I'm not a fan.

She's not bad at all. I'm not a fan of hers, but I've heard some of her songs and they haven't made me sick. She does have a tendency to look angry all the time, though. But she also hangs around with Courtney Love. I'd be angry too.

CLEVELAND (Billboard) - With Ashlee Simpson (news) in the news this week following a disastrous lip-synching appearance on "Saturday Night Live," Canadian pop singer Avril Lavigne (news) says it's "pathetic" that some young artists don't sing on their own record or on stage.   

While she can relate to the pressures of learning how to play live and work an audience for the first time, Lavigne says she takes exception to the practice of lip-synching.


"You know what? There are a lot of people out there today, who have become stars or famous musicians -- I wouldn't really define them as a star -- with a record only because they have connections and only because they have money and for the wrong reasons," Lavigne, 20, told Billboard.com.


"And it sucks. Actually, I know for a fact there are some young female artists who don't even sing on their own records and who don't sing live. And that is pathetic."


Ashlee Simpson, the younger sister of fellow reality TV starlet, Jessica Simpson (news), was caught out during her "SNL" appearance when a pre-recorded vocal track started playing as she held her microphone to her side. She initially blamed her band, and then a sore throat that prevented her from singing live.


Lavigne, who is six days older than Simpson, added, "I got signed because of my voice. That's what (then-Arista head Antonio) 'L.A.' Reid signed me on. He said, 'Wow, you are only 15 and you can really sing. I'm going to sign you.' And I've never lip-synced once."


Lavigne is in the midst of a North American tour to promote her newly released second album "Under My Skin," which has sold 1.8 million copies to date in the United States. She drops in on Hampton, Va., Oct. 30.


She says she's more confident than ever. On stage, she's singing, playing piano and even showing off her drum chops on one song.


While she has been doing a little writing on tour, and live material is being gathered for an eventual DVD release, there is no timetable for her next project. Said Lavigne, "No, I'm going to be out here for a while."


Lavigne recorded the theme song for the upcoming "SpongeBob SquarePants" soundtrack, due Nov. 9 via Sire.


"I sang the theme song but did my own version for the movie," she said. "I had never done anything like that before so I said that would be kind of cool. You know, a good experience. I just did a rockier version -- a me version of it."

I saw that, it was hilarious.

priceless

Ahahahha, she sucks. Why is she dancing like that?
