It’s Cool To Hate…
Avril Lavigne
Avril Lavigne was not ‘discovered’ she was ‘composed.’ In a time
when the music industry was flooded with teen idols, someone thought it would
be a good idea to create the “Anit-Britney.” It was good marketing strategy indeed
but at the expense of music fans’ ears. Avril’s image is that of a Hot Topic
catalog and her music, thought camouflaged behind guitars, is still,
regrettably teen pop.
What seems ever worse is the fact that Avril does not even write
her own music. Sure, she’s seen playing guitar in her “Complicated” video as
well as skateboarding but this is no doubt just an image being projected. After
viewed an aired Avril concert one may not be surprised to notice the absence of
a guitar in her hand during the set. She even admitted that the director of her
video wanted her to skateboard in it even though she admitted that she was not
good at it. Her backup band, The Matrix, write some of her tunes including
“Complicated.” One member has been quoted with admitting that “We write most of
the lyrics but Avril does help out sometimes. For example, one lyric in
‘Complicated’ was ‘take off all you stupid clothes” and Avril suggested that we
change it to ‘preppy clothes.’”
Born and raised in Canada, Avril got an early start at her career
from singing in church. She’s admitted that she does not even listen to music
and once even asked who David Bowie was.
She tries to come off as being a punk, yet probably can not name
more than three punk bands. She tries to be a rebel, but does not know what is cool to rebel against. You know the
music industry’s going down hill when not talent ass clowns like Avril are
winning the awards.
Avril is also know for owning only one outfit in her entire
wardrobe…that being long shorts that might as well be pants, a white
wife-beater, and a black tie. No doubt folks, this is the shape of punk to
come! We can only hope that one day Canada will open its belly and take
re-swallow that which it unfortunately spit out into America.
For those of you who agree with me that Avril is Cool To Hate, I would highly advise that you visit this website that has a more indepth and complex bashing of this walking contradiction. Click below to be taken there...do it, dammit!
