Before hitting bigtime as a teen pop rocker, Avril Lavigne cut her chops as a country singer. “I wouldn’t go back to singing country,” Lavigne told MuchMusic. “I wanted to sing and my mom saw that in me and she tried to get me to sing wherever she could – so I started singing my first solo at church and then branched to fairs and you had to sing country songs. Then I was like, ‘Mom, I don’t like these songs!’ I didn’t really want to sing gospel music or country music anymore. It was getting to be embarrassing. I was growing older and into myself and realizing what I wanted to do, so I started writing songs. I was writing when I was 14. Then they started to be different and they turned out to what my songs are like now.”

Uh, no, you mean the marketing wizards that built your persona in a lab forced you to ditch country music and pretend to be a punk rock princess.
when is he going to stop lying about writing music and all the rest. All the people she has worked with have already confirmed this fact.The girl has neither the talent or the education to wqrite anything; nice voice though, this is why they hired her. I could go on about the phony gatar playng etc. but I have beter things to do.
Sorry, but no XD She did want to sing pop/rock and not country and she writes all her songs :) Sorry to mislead you all.
