Avril Lavigne Performs And Chats On TRL
Avril Lavigne stopped by MTV’s Total Request Live on Thursday to chat with host Carson Daly and perform her TRL hit ‘Complicated’. Avril addressed her recent quote about Britney Spears, sort of anyways, denying it but not coming off as believable. She then sidestepped Carson’s question on whether she’d ever tour with Spears. Read on for a transcript.
Carson: Our guest is 17-year-old sorta punk skate chick plays, sings, writes the whole thing nice to have her, her first time here
on TRL, put your hands together jersey for Avril Lavigne. Avril, come on
down. A nice standing ovation from our audience here on MTV. Our friends
from the neighboring north.
[Cheering]
Carson: What’s happenin’? Come stand over here
[Inaudible]
Carson: I have to apologize first and foremost for butchering your name
for the past two months the last months.
Avril: Avril Lavigne.
Carson: Like Advil welcome to TRL.
Avril: Thank you very much.
Carson: We had Sum 41 on the show and they hit it big with their first
song and perform on TRL. They had no idea about show and MTV in the United
States and how big they had made it do. You have any idea where you are
ritd now and might be big thing for your career?
Avril: Yeah.
Carson: You’ve been told that or know that?
Avril: Yes, TRL’s pretty big.
Carson: You don’t care; right.
Avril: No, of course I care.
Carson: The punk rock one and say screw it. Are you going to break your
guitar today?
Avril: I wish, ha-ha.
Carson: So you are 17. When you did move from Canada to New York?
Avril: Uhm, when I was 16 I got signed when I just turned 16 and I moved
to manhattan ‘pretty cool.
Carson: Now with “complicated” this is gigantic D.You have idea? It
took off for you.
Avril: I didn’t really know what to expect but I’m happy with what’s
happenin’ with it.
Carson: And your album “Let’s go”.
Avril: “Let go”.
Carson: “Let go” sure
[Laughter]
Carson: Is the rest of the record like “complicated”.
Avril: I think that’s one of the more like pop tracks on it. There’s
more — other songs that are more rockin’ and some that are a bit more
punk then there’s more mellower ones, very diverse, shows different sides
of me.
Carson: How do you feel about losers like myself in the states that
love to lump you into the sort of I don’t know what they have said a new
Lilith set group with.
Avril: New Lilith set group?
Carson: With Vanessas and all girls writing, happy for that rather than
just tracks and stuff like that does it bother you.
Avril: Not really. I mean I understand we’ll get compared to each other
because we are all young and we write our own stuff. And play and instrument
but I mean, at the same time we are all different like I’m a 17-year-old
kid from [Inaudible] Ontario and write about my past experiences whereas
Vanessa is 19 and writes about her past experiences and so on, so ….
Carson: Are you angry about anything?
Avril: Angry about anything? What do you mean? Ha-ha.
Carson: Like Britney Spears, let’s say.
Avril: What — I don’t have anything to be at her for.
Carson: Okay we’ll talk about that later on. You know he what I’m gettin’
at we have to disspell rumors that came out more with Avril right.
Avril: Avril.
Carson: There you go everybody she’s here to perform “Complicated” and
the rest of your top 10. And a whole lot more. You are watchin’ mtv’s trl
live from the new jersey shore. We’ll be back right after this:

Fan: Wha’ssup.
Avril: Hello.
Fan: You in that you have become such a huge celebrity and your song’s
so popular has it had any negative effects on your life at all?
Carson: Good question.
Avril: I really don’t think I’m a huge celebrity but this whole fame

dream, I get to go all over the world and, uh, I’m really happy. I’m really
excited. I’m doin’ what I love.

Carson: This whole than on the internet you hate Britney Spears I’ll
read this quote. If you want you can comment on it or do whatever you want
with it but here’s what we found would you walk — you talking about britney
would you walk around the street in an [Bleep] Bra, she’s not being up
[Cheering]
Carson: End quote. Avril Lavigne on Britney Spears. What’s the deal?
Avril: I mean, I feel like the press kinda stick words on artists mouths
I mean like I said I’m different from her.
Carson: You did say she dances like a [Bleep].
Avril: No! I — ha-ha.
Carson: Just a little bit you said that? Look the most successful show
in the history of MTV is called the ‘Osbournes’ and they say [Bleep] Every
5 seconds.
Avril: I’m not dissin’ her or any artist I don’t need to do that. She’s
doin’ her thing and I’m doin’ my thing and that’s all I have to say
[Cheering]
Carson: Your boys over there the band’s got your back.
Avril: Aren’t they hot.
Carson: Would you ever go on tour with Britney.
Avril: Aren’t they hot?
Carson: I think that was a no
