Avril Lavigne: a true wild child, a dynamic spirit... Commentary on Avril Lavigne: WHY I LIKE HER: She's got a storng head on her shoulders, an attitude not to be messed with. From a small town in Ontario, Canada, she's come a long way, setting records and bringing a fresh new voice into the world of music. She pens all her own songs, and dresses how she wants to, does only what she wants to. I envy her freedom. :P Her debut song, 'Complicated' has set the record for the most airplay in the United States, playing over 9600 times in a week. Her music style, and her attitude, her views, everything about her is purely her own. She dislikes Britney Spears, the fakeness displayed in the media today, the focus on image. She is a refreshing change from the typical, the trend set by artists today, who have risen to fame without talent, with only the flaunting of skin. She is Avril Lavigne.
