Avril Ramona Lavigne Template:Post-nominals (Template:IPAc-en Template:Respell; Template:IPA; born September 27, 1984) is a Canadian singer and songwriter. She is a key musician in popularizing pop-punk music, as she paved the way for female-driven, punk-influenced pop music in the early 2000s. Her accolades include ten Juno Awards and eight Grammy Awards nominations.

At age 16, Lavigne signed a two-album recording contract with Arista Records. Her debut album, Let Go (2002), is the best-selling album of the 21st century by a Canadian artist. It yielded the successful singles "Complicated" and "Sk8er Boi", which emphasized a skate punk persona and earned her the titles of "Pop-Punk Queen", "Pop-Punk Princess" and "Teen-Pop Slayer" from music publications.[1] Her second album, Under My Skin (2004), became Lavigne's first to reach the top of the Billboard 200 chart in the United States, going on to sell 10 million copies worldwide.

Lavigne's third album, The Best Damn Thing (2007), reached number one in seven countries worldwide and saw the international success of its lead single "Girlfriend", which became her first single to reach the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. Her next two albums, Goodbye Lullaby (2011) and Avril Lavigne (2013), saw continued commercial success and were both certified gold in Canada, the United States, and other territories. After releasing her sixth album, Head Above Water (2019), she returned to her pop punk roots with her seventh album, Love Sux (2022).

Early life

Avril Ramona Lavigne was born on September 27, 1984, in Belleville, Ontario. She was named Avril (the French word for April) by her father.[2] Lavigne's paternal grandfather Maurice Yves Lavigne was born in Saint-Jérôme, Quebec.[3] A member of the Royal Canadian Air Force, he married Lucie Dzierzbicki, a French native of Morhange in 1953. Their son, Jean-Claude Lavigne, was born in 1954 at RCAF Station Grostenquin near Grostenquin, Lorraine.[4] When Jean-Claude was a child, the family moved to Ontario, and in 1975, he married Judith-Rosanne "Judy" Loshaw.Template:R[5]

Lavigne's father and mother recognized their child's vocal abilities when she was two years old and sang "Jesus Loves Me" on the way home from their Catholic church.Template:R[6] Lavigne has an older brother named Matthew and a younger sister named Michelle,Template:R both of whom teased her when she sang. "My brother used to knock on the wall because I used to sing myself to sleep and he thought it was really annoying."Template:R

When Lavigne was five, the family moved to Napanee (now incorporated as Greater Napanee),Template:R a town with a population of approximately 5,000 at the time.Template:R

To support her musical interests, her father bought her a microphone, a drum kit, a keyboard, and several guitars, and converted their basement into a studio. Her father often played bass at the church the family attended, the Third Day Worship Centre in Kingston. When Lavigne was 14 years old, her parents took her to karaoke sessions.Template:R

Lavigne performed at country fairs, singing songs by Garth Brooks, the Chicks, and Shania Twain, and began writing her own songs. Her first song was called "Can't Stop Thinking About You", about a teenage infatuation, which she described as "cheesy cute".Template:R

Lavigne also played ice hockey during high school and was named most valuable player (MVP) twice as a right winger in a boys' league.[7]

Career

1999–2001: Career beginnings

In 1999, Lavigne won a radio contest to perform with Canadian singer Shania Twain at the Corel Centre in Ottawa, before an audience of 20,000 people.Template:RTemplate:R Twain and Lavigne sang Twain's song, "What Made You Say That",Template:R and Lavigne told Twain that she aspired to be "a famous singer".Template:R During a performance with the Lennox Community Theatre, Lavigne was spotted by local folksinger Stephen Medd. He invited her to contribute vocals on his song, "Touch the Sky", for his 1999 album, Quinte Spirit. She later sang on "Temple of Life" and "Two Rivers" for his follow-up album, My Window to You, in 2000.

In December 1999, Lavigne was discovered by her first professional manager, Cliff Fabri, while singing country covers at a Chapters bookstore in Kingston.Template:R Fabri sent out VHS tapes of Lavigne's home performances to several industry prospects, and Lavigne was visited by several executives.Template:R Mark Jowett, co-founder of a Canadian management firm, Nettwerk, received a copy of Lavigne's karaoke performances recorded in her parents' basement.Template:R Jowett arranged for Lavigne to work with producer Peter Zizzo during the summer of 2000 in New York, where she wrote the song "Why". Lavigne was noticed by Arista Records during a trip to New York.Template:R

In November 2000,Template:R Ken Krongard, an A&R representative, invited Antonio "L.A." Reid, then head of Arista Records, to Zizzo's Manhattan studio to hear Lavigne sing. Her 15-minute audition "so impressed" Reid that he immediately signed her to Arista with a deal worth $1.25 million for two albums and an extra $900,000 for a publishing advance.Template:R By this time, Lavigne had found that she fit in naturally with her hometown high school's skater clique, an image that carried through to her first album, but although she enjoyed skateboarding, school left her feeling insecure. Having signed a record deal, and with support from her parents, she left school to focus on her music career.Template:RTemplate:R Lavigne's band, which were mostly the members of Closet Monster, was chosen by Nettwerk, as they wanted young performers who were up and coming from the Canadian punk rock scene who would fit with Lavigne's personality.[8]

2002–2003: Let Go

Reid gave A&R Joshua Sarubin the responsibility of overseeing Lavigne's development and the recording of her debut album. They spent several months in New York working with different co-writers, trying to forge an individual sound for her. Sarubin told HitQuarters that they initially struggled; although early collaborations with songwriter-producers including Sabelle Breer, Curt Frasca and Peter Zizzo resulted in some good songs, they did not match her or her voice. It was only when Lavigne went to Los Angeles in May 2001 and created two songs with the Matrix production team—including "Complicated", later released as her debut single—that the record company felt she had made a major breakthrough. Lavigne worked further with the Matrix and also with singer-songwriter Clif Magness. Recording of Lavigne's debut album, Let Go, finished in January 2002.Template:R

Lavigne released Let Go in June 2002 in the US, where it reached number two on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

Artistry

Musical style

Most critics have identified Lavigne as a pop,[70][71] pop-punk,[72][70][73] pop rock,[74][75] power pop,[76][77] alternative rock,[78][73] and teen pop musician.[73] Her first three albums were described as a mix of pop-punk, alternative rock and pop rock,[79]Template:R with elements of post-grunge.Template:R Teen pop was also a major influence on Lavigne's first three albums, as most of her lyrics were from an adolescent perspective. This led critics to describe her music as alternateen or teen punk.Template:R

Her debut album, Let Go, has a slight grunge influence, while Lavigne, herself, was compared to other female artists with a similar sound, mainly Alanis Morissette.[80][81][82] Her second album, Under My Skin, was noticeably darker, with heavier production, more ballads and a post-grunge sound that verged on nu metal,[83][84][85] while keeping pop-punk influenced power chords.[86] The album was seen as anticipating the "emotional intensity and theatrical aesthetics" of emo-pop before it came into the mainstream,[87] and has been compared to heavier bands like Linkin Park and Evanescence.[88][89][90] In contrast, The Best Damn Thing is more simplistic pop-punk that Blender wrote "sounded like Toni Basil cheerleading for Blink-182."[91] Lavigne was praised for her ability to combine bubblegum pop melodies with punk rock riffs on the album.[92]

Lavigne's sound went softer and poppier on her fourth and sixth albums, Goodbye Lullaby and Head Above Water respectively. They are characterized more by acoustic pop rock and less guitar-driven songs that were a signature of her earlier works.[93] Despite this, songs on both albums have been labeled as pop-punk, including "Dumb Blonde" on the latter, a collaboration with Trinidadian rapper Nicki Minaj, with elements of hip-hop.[94] Meanwhile, her fifth album, Avril Lavigne, is more diverse, with a mix of dance-pop and harsher rock tracks,[95] including "Hello Kitty", that experiments with J-pop, dubstep and EDM,[96] and "Bad Girl", a collaboration with American rock musician Marilyn Manson, considered one of her heaviest songs.[95] Lavigne returned to her pop-punk roots on her seventh album Love Sux, with the mainstream resurgence of the genre. She embraced emo-pop angst,[97] and skate punk influences from NOFX, Blink-182, Green Day and the Offspring.[98]

Lavigne possesses a soprano vocal range.[99][100][101][102] Pat Blashill of Rolling Stone, in a review of "Sk8er Boi", described her voice as "equal parts baby girl and husky siren".[103] Themes in her music include messages of self-empowerment from a female or an adolescent perspective.Template:R Lavigne believes her "songs are about being yourself no matter what and going after your dreams even if your dreams are crazy and even if people tell you they're never going to come true."Template:R Ian McKellen defined her as "a punk chanteuse, a post-grunge valkyrie, with the wounded soul of a poet and the explosive pugnacity of a Canadian" on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson in 2007.Template:R

Songwriting

Template:Quote boxOn her debut album, Let Go, Lavigne preferred the less mainstream songs, such as "Losing Grip", instead of her more radio-friendly singles, such as "Complicated", saying that "the songs I did with the Matrix ... were good for my first record, but I don't want to be that pop anymore."Template:R Lavigne's second album, Under My Skin, had deeper personal themes underlying each song, with Lavigne remarking that "I've gone through so much, so that's what I talk about ... Like boys, like dating or relationships."Template:R In contrast, her third album, The Best Damn Thing, was not personal to her. "Some of the songs I wrote didn't even mean that much to me. It's not like some personal thing I'm going through."Template:R Her objective in writing the album was simply to "make it fun".Template:R Goodbye Lullaby, her fourth album, was much more personal than her earlier records,Template:R with Lavigne describing the album as "more stripped down, deeper. All the songs are very emotional."[104]

While Lavigne said she was not angry, her interviews were still passionate about the media's lack of respect for her songwriting. She said, "I am a writer, and I won't accept people trying to take that away from me", adding that she had been writing "full-structured songs" since she was 14.Template:R Despite this, Lavigne's songwriting has been questioned throughout her career. The songwriting trio the Matrix, with whom Lavigne wrote songs for Let Go, claimed they were the main songwriters of her singles "Complicated", "Sk8er Boi" and "I'm with You". Lavigne said that she was the primary songwriter for every song on the album, stating that "[N]one of those songs aren't from me".Template:R

In 2007, Chantal Kreviazuk, who wrote with Lavigne on Under My Skin, accused her of plagiarism and criticized her songwriting, saying that "Avril doesn't really sit and write songs by herself or anything."[105]Template:R Lavigne also disclaimed this, and considered taking legal action against Kreviazuk for "clear defamation" against her character.Template:R Kreviazuk later apologized, saying that "Avril is an accomplished songwriter and it has been my privilege to work with her."Template:R Shortly after that, Tommy Dunbar, founder of the band the Rubinoos, sued Lavigne, her publishing company, and Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald for allegedly stealing parts of "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" for her song "Girlfriend".Template:R Gottwald defended Lavigne, stating, "me and Avril wrote the song together... It has the same chord progressions as ten different Blink-182 songs, the standard changes you'd find in a Sum 41 song. It's the Sex Pistols, not the Rubinoos."Template:R In January 2008, a confidential settlement was reached between the parties.Template:R

Influences

Lavigne's earlier influences came from country music acts such as Garth Brooks, the Chicks, and Shania Twain,Template:R and alternative singer-songwriters such as Alanis Morissette, Lisa Loeb, Natalie Imbruglia, and Janis Joplin.Template:R By the time she left school to focus on her music career, Lavigne was musically more influenced by skate punk, pop punk, and punk rock acts such as Blink-182, the Offspring, Sum 41, NOFX, Pennywise, Green Day, the Ramones, the Distillers, and Hole. She also enjoyed metal bands such as Marilyn Manson and System of a Down, as well as alternative bands such as Nirvana, No Doubt, the Goo Goo Dolls, Radiohead, the Cranberries, Coldplay, Oasis, Third Eye Blind, Matchbox Twenty, Incubus, Dashboard Confessional and the Used.Template:R[106][107] Lavigne described Third Eye Blind's self-titled debut studio album as one of the biggest influences in her music career.[108]

Because of these influences, musical genres, and Lavigne's personal style, the media often defined her as punk, something she said she was not. Lavigne's close friend and first guitarist, Evan Taubenfeld, said: "It's a very touchy subject to a lot of people, but the point is that Avril isn't punk, but she never really pretended to claim to come from that scene. She had pop punk music and the media ended up doing the rest."Template:R Lavigne commented on the matter: "I have been labelled like I'm this angry girl, [a] rebel ... punk, and I am so not any of them."Template:R However, she has also said that her music has punk influences: "I like to listen a lot to punk rock music, you can notice a certain influence of punk in my music. I like an aggressive music, but pretty enough heavy pop-rock, which is what I really do."Template:R[109] In other interviews, she similarly described her sound as drawing from multiple styles, explaining: "For me and my music, I've always had a connection to pop-rock, pop-punk, rock and roll, and emo music. I've always had that element in my albums, and it's always been with me — at all of my shows, all of my concerts."[110]

When Lavigne first gained publicity, she was known for her tomboyish style,Template:R in particular her necktie-and-tank-top combinations.Template:R She preferred baggy clothes, skater shoes or Converses,Template:R wristbands, and sometimes shoelaces wrapped around her fingers.Template:R During photo shoots, instead of wearing "glittery get-ups", she preferred wearing "old, crumpled T's".Template:R In response to her fashion and musical influences, the media called her the "pop punk princess"Template:R and the female answer to Blink-182.[111] Press and fans regarded her as the "anti-Britney", in part because of her "real" image, but also because she was noticeably headstrong. "I'm not made up and I'm not being told what to say and how to act, so they have to call me the anti-Britney, which I'm not."Template:R By November 2002, however, Lavigne stopped wearing ties, claiming she felt she was "wearing a costume".Template:R Lavigne made a conscious effort to keep her music, and not her image, at the forefront of her career.Template:R

Lavigne eventually took on a more gothic style as she began her second album, Under My Skin, trading her skating outfits for black tutusTemplate:R and developing an image marked by angst.Template:R During The Best Damn Thing years, Lavigne changed directions. She dyed her hair blonde with a pink streak, wore feminine outfits,Template:R including "tight jeans and heels",Template:R and modelled for magazines such as Harper's Bazaar.Template:R Lavigne defended her new style: "I don't really regret anything. You know, the ties and the wife-beaters and all ... It had its time and place. And now I'm all grown up, and I've moved on".Template:R

Lavigne has been the subject of a conspiracy theory that posits that she committed suicide in 2003 and was replaced by a body double who had previously been recruited to distract paparazzi. This originated as a joke on a Brazilian blog, but it has since been embraced by some conspiracy theorists in earnest.[112] In an interview with Australia's KIIS 106.5 in November 2018, Lavigne responded to the rumour, stating: "Yeah, some people think that I'm not the real me, which is so weird! Like, why would they even think that?"[113]

Legacy

Lavigne has been called the greatest female representative of pop-punk music and one of the female singers who best represent 2000s rock music.[114][115][116][117]

She has been compared to alternative female singer-songwriters of the 1990s such as Alanis Morissette, Liz Phair, and Courtney Love, Lavigne also was seen as a fashion icon for her skatepunk and rocker style.[118][119] In the Mail & Guardian, Kimberley Schoeman called Lavigne a "queer icon" and a "sweet spot for those realising, "I like boys and girls"".[120] "Sk8er Boi", "He Wasn't", and "Girlfriend" are frequently listed among the best pop-punk songs of all time by critics.[121][122][123][124]

She helped pave the way for female-driven punk-influenced pop artists such as Paramore, Skye Sweetnam, Fefe Dobson, Lillix, Kelly Osbourne, Krystal Meyers, Tonight Alive, Courage My Love, and Hey Monday.[125][126][127][128] She has influenced a wide array of musical artists, including acts such as Tramp Stamps,[129] Bebe Rexha,[130] Billie Eilish,[131] Courage My Love,[132] 5 Seconds of Summer,[133] Yungblud,[134] Maggie Lindemann,[135] Tonight Alive,[136][137] Willow Smith,[138] Amanda Palmer,[139] Misono,[140] Rina Sawayama,[141] Hey Monday,[142] Grey,[143] Ed Sheeran,[144] Kailee Morgue,[145] Charli XCX,[146][147] MercyMe,[148] Palberta,[149] Yeule,[150][151][152] Ashnikko,[153] Olivia Rodrigo,[154][155] and Kirstin Maldonado.[156] Amy Studt was hailed as "the U.K.'s answer" to Avril Lavigne.[157] Lavigne influenced indie rock singer-songwriters such as Pale Waves,[158][159][160] Graace,[161] Phoebe Bridgers,[162][163] Soccer Mommy,[164] Ethel Cain,[165] Snail Mail, and Liz Phair.[166]

Nylon magazine said she influenced musicians in the mid-to-late 2010s rise of emo hip hop and emo rap, including Lil Uzi Vert, Princess Nokia, Lloyd Banks, Vic Mensa, Nipsey Hussle, Noname, and Rico Nasty. American rapper Fat Tony said she influenced hip hop and rap music because "she delivered a great visual catchy package [punk music, pop music and skater culture] that describes all of them." Rico Nasty named one of her alter egos, Trap Lavigne, saying "She is a perfect representation of being hard and soft [...] she hated the term punk, but she was so punk rock".[167]

A persistent internet meme about a Lavigne-written song called "Dolphins" has been showing up on various lyric sites since 2007, but she did not write or record this song. The lyrics appear on dozens of lyric sites and various bands have recorded cover versions of the song that was never recorded by Lavigne.[168][169]

Lavigne’s early pop-punk image influenced portrayals of teenage rebellion in early-2000s popular culture. Lindsay Lohan stated that her portrayal of Anna Coleman in the 2003 film Freaky Friday was inspired by Lavigne’s style, attitude, and skate-punk aesthetic.[170][171] In mid-2007, Lavigne was featured in a two-volume graphic novel, Avril Lavigne's Make 5 Wishes. She collaborated with artist Camilla d'Errico and writer Joshua Dysart on the manga, which was about a shy girl named Hana who, upon meeting her hero, Lavigne, learned to overcome her fears. Lavigne said, "I know that many of my fans read manga, and I'm really excited to be involved in creating stories that I know they will enjoy." The first volume was released in April 2007, and the second followed in July 2007. The publication Young Adult Library Services nominated the series for "Great Graphic Novels for Teens".Template:R

Achievements

Template:Main In 2003, Lavigne won an International Achievement Award for the song "Complicated" at the SOCAN Awards in Toronto.[172] Lavigne received eight Grammy Awards nominations in two years, including Best New Artist. She has also received three American Music Awards nominations, one Brit Award nomination, and one MTV Video Music Award. Lavigne had sold more than 30 million singles and 40 million copies of her albums worldwide,[173][174] including over 12.4 million album copies in the US according to Billboard.[175] In 2009, Billboard named Lavigne the number 10 pop artist in the "Best of the 2000s" chart.Template:R She was listed as the 28th overall best act of the decade based on album and single chart performance in the US.Template:R[172] The magazine later ranked her at number 19 on its 2025 "Top Women Artists of the 21st Century" list.[176]

Lavigne achieved a Guinness World Record as being the youngest female solo artist to top the UK album chart, on January 11, 2003, at the age of 18 years and 106 days. The album Let Go reached number one in its 18th chart week.[177] She held the record until 2004, as the UK charts reported that Joss Stone's Mind Body & Soul took it the following year.[178] She also was the first to reach 100 million views on a YouTube video, with her 2007 single "Girlfriend".[179] Lavigne was the first western artist to do a full tour in China, with The Best Damn Tour in 2008, and is considered the biggest western artist in Asia, especially in Japan, where her first three albums have sold more than 1 million copies (being the only female Western Artist since the 2000s to achieve this).[180] Lavigne is the only artist to have performed at three different multi-sport events: two closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympic Games (Torino 2006[181] and Vancouver 2010[182]) and the opening ceremony of the 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games.[183] In June 2024, she was conferred with the Order of Canada.[184]

Other activities

Acting career

Lavigne became interested in appearing on television and in feature films. The decision, she said, was her own. Although her years of experience in making music videos was to her advantage, Lavigne admitted her experience in singing removed any fear of performing on camera. She specifically mentioned that the video "Nobody's Home" involved the most "acting".Template:R Her first television appearance was in a 2002 episode of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch,Template:R performing "Sk8er Boi"Template:R with her band in a nightclub.Template:R She later made a cameo appearance in the 2004 film Going the Distance. The main characters bump into her backstage at the MuchMusic Video AwardsTemplate:R after her performance of "Losing Grip".Template:R

She moved into feature film acting cautiously, deliberately choosing small roles to begin with. In November 2005, after going through an audition to land the role, Lavigne travelled to New MexicoTemplate:R to film a single scene in the 2007 film, The Flock.Template:R She played Beatrice Bell, the girlfriend of a crime suspect, appearing alongside Claire Danes and Richard Gere. Gere gave Lavigne acting tips between takes.Template:R On her role in The Flock, Lavigne said, "I did that just to see how it was and to not jump into [mainstream acting] too fast."Template:R The Flock was not released in American theatres, and because it was not released in foreign markets until late 2007, it is not considered Lavigne's debut. The film made $7 million in the foreign box office.Template:R

Lavigne at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival

Lavigne's feature film debut was voicing an animated character in the 2006 film Over the Hedge, based on the comic strip of the same name. She voiced the character Heather, a Virginia opossum. Lavigne found the recording process to be "easy" and "natural", but she kept hitting the microphone as she gestured while acting. "I'd use my hands constantly and, like, hit the microphone stand and make noises, so [director] Tim and [screenwriter] Karey had to tell me to hold still.... It's hard to be running or falling down the stairs and have to make those sounds come out of your mouth but keep your body still." Lavigne believed she was hired to perform Heather because of her rock-star status. "[The director] thought I'd give my character... a bit of attitude".Template:R The film opened on May 19, 2006, making $38 million over its opening weekend. It went on to gross $336 million worldwide.Template:R

In December 2005, Lavigne signed to appear in Fast Food Nation, based on the book Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal.Template:R The fictionalized adaptation, directed by Richard Linklater, traces fast-food hamburgers contaminated with cow feces back to the slaughterhouses.Template:R Lavigne played Alice, a high school student intent on freeing the cows.Template:RTemplate:R The film opened on November 17, 2006, and remained in theatres for 11 weeks, grossing $2 million worldwide.Template:R

Both Over the Hedge and Fast Food Nation opened at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival, which Lavigne attended. When asked if she would pursue her film career, she stated that she wanted to take her time and wait for the "right parts and the right movies." Lavigne was deliberate in the roles she had chosen, saying "I wanted to start off small and to learn. I wouldn't just want to throw myself into a big part."Template:R In August 2006, Canadian Business magazine ranked her as the seventh top Canadian actor in Hollywood in their second annual Celebrity Power List ranking. The results were determined by comparing salary, Internet hits, TV mentions, and press hits.Template:R In September 2011, Lavigne appeared on the Hub Network's televised singing competition Majors & Minors as a guest mentor alongside other singers, including Adam Lambert and Leona Lewis.Template:R
