She's Pink-lite.

It still kills me that Avril thinks she's punk.

Disapprove.

Punk schmunk, I'd hit it.

When did she ever say she was punk?

Kyosuke: When did she ever say she was punk?

Apparently, never:

However, Avril Lavigne has consistently stated that her music is not punk rock and that she does not believe she is punk. Although it's constantly debated whether or not Avril Lavigne is punk, there have been several (and more recent) occasions where she has stated "I'm not punk, that's a whole other world. If anything I'm more rock or pop."

source (pops)

I came in here to blast her for being a poseur, but I guess I was wrong about her.

Um so that's your standard for 'punk'? Whatever it is, i'm glad i like Avril's music.

As for this article... hmmm didn't i read an article a couple of months ago where she was partying with Britney? Pretty sure i did.

 
SherKhan 2008-03-01 07:06:52 PM  
I just want to see her on RedTube.

 
Guntram Shatterhand 2008-03-01 07:15:27 PM  
I'd hit it, but no matter what she is, she's washed up. Sorry, to continue being a pop star you need to either:

1) make music in the US, or
2) fail like Britney.

Otherwise, you're just wasting our time.

Avril looks like Gaara from Naruto.

Prove me wrong here.

 
nick_papagiorgio [TotalFark] 2008-03-01 07:44:46 PM  
I wanted to point out....ahh, forget it. This pic explains her disdain for the media, yet her industry dictates that she maintain a relationship with the media in order to have a career. Sk8er grrrrllll.

I'm not an Avril Lavigne fan, but I think it's rather amusing how she gets all the "that's not punk!" purists all riled up. You are the old establishment now, if you haven't noticed.

Being old doesn't enter into it. If you're a musician and want to claim to be part of a certain genre, you should know your history. From Manic_Repressive's link above: Avril Lavigne once admitted to not ever having heard of the Sex Pistols. And although she now says otherwise, early in her career she did claim to be punk. If you're an artist, you should know your roots.

The Sex Pistols? You serious?

Does Johnny Rotten acknowledge anyone at all besides himself?

Mugato [TotalFark] 2008-03-01 10:09:37 PM  
Oh for fark's sake.

The Sex Pistols used the same five chords that every punk, hard rock, soft rock, classic rock, glam rock, country, bee bop, heavy metal, death metal, grunge and whatever pussy ass shiat that tries to pass as rock uses now. So everyone get the fark over yourselves and let this little hottie poser be.

stop trying to convince people that avril lavigne isnt punk. everyone either got the message a while ago or couldnt give a shiat one way or the other. being a chick that may or may not have tried to appeal to punk culture five years ago isnt any worse than taking every opportunity you can to decry how punk someone isn't. it gets you and punk culture nowhere, whatever your vision of punk culture is. at this point, if youre still biatching and complaining about how avril lavigne youre doing more to harm "punk" than any pop singer with a necktie ever could. stop biatching about what punk isn't and spend your time and energy doing something worthwhile. shut the f*ck up and try to change things that actually matter. i know youre the only one on your block to realize that avril ain't darby crash, but do more than that. please. otherwise youre just perpetuating the stereotype that punk ain't much more than loudmouth dipshiats with no worthwhile ideas.

I think you mean pop flavored music for 13 year old girls.

im sick of all these punk-poser emo fags running around on their boulevard of broken dreams crying about their fake problems. avril should just realize she has talent (well, some) and not try to create this fake image of herself, especially one she can't even follow up on [i.e. the sex pistols thing]

 
J. Frank Parnell 2008-03-02 02:35:41 AM  
It's not really her fault people call her music punk, Blink 182 and other "punk" bands convinced a generation that's what punk was.

In fairness to them, they're as crass and offensive to their teenaged fans' middle aged parents as the original punk rockers were before them and that was a large part of what the ethos was, so they're at least coming from the same angle.
