Avril Lavigne

OCTOBER 22 - NEWS FLASH ! :)

I just met Avril Lavigne this week IN PERSON and even got to talk to her for a couple of minutes!

It was at a Canon Canada press event where they invited 10 "Super Fans" to have a meet-and-greet with Avril after they announced this new partnership between her and Canon Canada.

Details can be found at www.shootlikeastar.ca and I will be writing a new and full post about this event and what it was like to meet Avril in person when I get my copy of the photo they took of me and Avril together. Sweet!

So check back within the week for that post I'll make here, or Subscribe with your email (on the right side of this page) so you'll know as soon as I publish that article!

Avril Lavigne & Deryck Whibley just bought a new mansion in Bel-Air in the Los Angeles area!

I saw somewhere that Avril originally wanted to build her own dream house, but she must have found one close enough because they paid $9.5 million dollars for a 3 story "Tuscan-style" 12,000 square-foot home on one half hectare of land.

(Picture on the right is of her new house)

Avril must like Tuscan-Style houses because she already has one in Beverly Hills that she is apparently selling for $6.2 million!

June 2008 Update - Avril has sold her old home for $5.2 Million !

But their NEW house has 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, plus an elevator, an office, a steam shower, a sauna, a pool, and a garage big enough for 10 cars!

I also read that house use to be owned by Travis Barker (former drummer of Blink-182) and his wife (at the time) Shanna Moakler and its where they filmed their MTV reality show Meet the Barkers - and MTV reported back in August they were putting the house up for sale for $8.5 million, and from everything I've read it has bounced between $8.0 and $9.5 million ever since.
UPDATE: I just read that Travis Barker bought this house in September 2004 for $6.2 million!

Avril on Television

OH - and also, I saw in one of the news reports that Avril will be the musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" this Saturday at 11:30 pm on NBC!

She's also going to be on "Good Morning America'' and "Late Night With David Letterman'' on April 17, "Live With Regis and Kelly'' on April 18 and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show'' on April 20.


THIS JUST IN !!! :-)

Avril Lavigne denies saying anything bad about Britney Spears !

Earlier this week "The Sun" newspaper had an interview with Avril and claimed Avril said:

"What's happened to Britney is all down to who she is as a person." and more

But Avril never said it!

Here's a recording of part of Avril's interview with Los Angeles radio DJs Valentine and Lisa Foxx on Star 98.7 where Av says:

"I haven't even been talking about her. People ask me about it all the time and I go, 'You know what? I don't know her.'"
