As mentioned on MTV’s Total Request Live today, Avril Lavigne turned down on doing a track with Backstreet Boys star Nick Carter on his new solo album, because she doesn’t want to be pulled into the “teen pop scene.”
Note: This apparently is the full quote: “Nick Carter wanted me to sing on his album but, you know, it’s not really my thing,” she says, laughing. “I mean, he’s a cool guy, I met
him, he’s nice. But I’m sorry I had to turn it down. I’m not putting myself in the (teen pop) type of box.”
