Say What Avril Lavigne?
August 28, 2002 - Avril Lavigne was featured in a clip on MTV’s Total Request Live on Wednesday ahead of tomorrow’s Video Music Awards, where she’s up for best new artist for ‘Complicated.’ Lavigne talked about the honor but wasn’t making much sense. “Being nominated. Oh, my god, I’m being nominated. That’s so cool,” she said. “Now the rest of my life, I can tell you about nominated for something. You know. This might be the only time this ever happens. And I’m just gonna have fun with it. I mean, like — the winning part? Is not — no, it’s not something that I’m expecting. And I think that everyone is winners, even if you’re not being nominated.”
If that is true, at least Britney is still respectful, and doesn’t diss Avril back…unlike Avril who keeps dissin Britney, and every other artist she doesn’t like. Avril maybe can play the guitar, write music, and act cool because she’s punk, but at least Britney is the more mature one…(as in not dissing back)
That is not true. Avril Lavigne may diss Britney Spears, but she has a point. All Britney is doing is selling her body for records (sort of like a prostitute looking for sex for money) Now don’t get me wrong, I think that Britney is properly mannered for not dissing her back. And secondly, there’s is self-confidence and showing off, and trust me there’s a big difference. Self-confidence is feeling good about yourself and don’t care what people think about them, but showing off is being such a vain person and actually have the nerve to say that I look good, people love me because I have Breast and a Big butt and having everything at my feet.
Britney Spears is a show-off. And I am glad that Avril Lavigne has said something about it.
well there’s something called constructive criticism and there’s something called jealousy. We all have faults. Nobody’s perfect. When you look for all the faults in other people before you take a look at your own faults that’s called umm how you say jealousy.
Avril is immature and has so much to learn…like thinking before you speak. She dresses like a damn boy so she should shut her damn mouth. She is so frickin’ annoying.At least Britney has enough class not to engage is the junior high babble.
Izzy~ I 100% agree! Avril does more than diss Britney, she disses EVERYBODY. This girl (if you can even call her that) thinks she’s all that. Someone lied to her. She has only been know for a year, she doesn’t have any right to diss people who have been famous for many years. She says she’s so different from all the other female singers, but I see that she is still walking around with that blonde hair.
It’s called fake, not nice. She sugarcoats her words. Puts on a smile and pretends to like everyone. She’s so fake. Avril speaks her mind and suddenly she has an attitude? Celebrities have their opinions too and I think that’s awesome when they’re not afraid to voice them.
Britney, you are so kind to hypocrites :)
