Avril Settles
Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand
Avril Lavigne has been accused of stealing songs many times.
The Candian singer and "songwriter" just settled a plagiarism lawsuit brought against her by the band the Rubinoos, who claim Lavigne's song Girlfriend sounded TOO MUCH like their song I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend.
The terms of the out of court deal are confidential, but we're pretty sure Avril had to pony up some cash.
We hope she paid Peaches too!

Avril is HOT!!!
Although she ages, she'll forever be the immature little rebel that claims to be a rock icon…but is really just another pop tart. Urgh! Grow up & make some real music.
she's lame.

I think Britney Spears also needs to pay off Peaches for the beginning of "Freakshow".
I'd like to blow a load of cum up her nose.

Its about time, too.

27TH
27TH
Peaches is a million times better than avril will ever be…
aVRIL is just jealous that she is NOT TALENTED!!
I won a free prize.
What is it?
I thought the Rubinoos dropped the lawsuit a long time ago, because someone pointed out that they'd ripped off a Rolling Stones song? :-S
What a no-talent, unpleasant little rat-face!
Avril hates mexicans too! yay! good for nothing spic balls… hahaha… die
Avril's a song stealer. Luckily her record label has insurance for that shiz.
Avril didn't finish high school–and it shows. Her lyrics are so completely stupid, and she comes across as a total moron in all her interviews. This is why I listen to Sheryl Crow and Tori Amos instead.
Avril won't admit she plagiarized the song. She refuses to take accountability for her actions.
One of the most annoying and talentless bints on the planet. She has the personality of a plank of wood and thinks she is special. The number of times you hear that people are saying she has recorded stuff similar to lesser known material - you have to wonder where she gets her inspirations from in the first place (maybe it is due to listening/ borrowing from other people's material.
Avril's a puppet. She's suppose to be the anti-Britney. Avril's stupider than Britney.
She's a Slimmy Cunt.

she makes me ashamed to be canadian
goddamn shes a doushebag
"motherfuckin doushebag"
UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I HATE preppy chicks who want to be punk!!!
"look at me! i wear pink and black and heavy eyeliner! im sooooo hardcore!"
fuck right off
goddamn… i wish avril would take the Britney Spears route and just fucking go nuts and GO THE FUCK AWAY!!!!
i really think avril is annoying. i wish she would go away and never come out with another song again. she isnt talented, and i dont know why she was signed in the first place.
Box it up and send it to Katrina!
She is such a sourpuss bubblegum tit sucking twat. I'm embarrassed that's she's Canadian.
That cunt disgraces music
What song did she take from PEACHES???
is it weird to say i care more about britney spears than this idiot bitch??? i'm ashamed she's from the same country as me….worst thing to come out of canada…….please….you hick….you're not better than everyone so shut your trap
3rd
She looks like she has FAT hipps for such a skinny face. Check out the roll of transfat hanging over the pants. Size on upwards fugly.
shes so fucking gay
and i'm pretty sure if what she says above ^ on the pic is true then everyone is a loser,
cause everyone thinks shes a dumb talentless wannabe ay
Little Avril ( You Americans are all small to me. Think of the fun this Norwegian girl has when she goes to Tokyo and is at least 10 cm taller then most of the men. Did I wear high heels? Oh, allright. Guilty as charged. ) is actually right. If you hate her you ARE in fact the loser. If you 'don't like her' you just ignore her. You should spend your energy on what you love. Not what you hate. She is just a little girl who plays lame music. She is no war criminal. But..then again..maybe it's just a really fun word to throw around. It's also funny how people write angry COMMENTS about something they say doesn't deserve any attention.
Reply to 'Winner (NOT) If you had bothered to listen to both songs, then you'd know WITHOUT A DOUBT that it IS the same song but for the updated beat/tween voice that is Avril! She "settled" ADMISSION OF GUILT / SHE ADMITTED IT!!! Most of us knew she wasn't going to be able to talk her way out of this one! In as far as your spelling goes? Well I'll just let your post speak for itself (for you).
"Still, McBride admitted he would consider settling the matter out of court to avoid a costly legal battle."
"A settlement does not necessarily indicate an admission of copyright infringement."
She is guilty of nothing. I'm tired of the Avril bashing. Grow up!
She is the one who sucks baad. Her music is so fucking annoyingly screechy, and has no talent. She and her loser husband what the fucks his name rot in hell I mean no talent. Obvious they come from money

I HATE AVRIL SOOO MUCH!!
FIRST!!
omg okay avril lavigne is the best singer/song writer ever dont be dissing her!!
and she didnt steal that song she wrote the words, maybe she stole the tune who knows but its no doubt that avril wrote that song HERSELF
Re: helen –
She's Canadian, not American
Sweety YOU'RE THE LOSER!! Because she's a poser and everyone sees through her, its pathetic how highly she thinks of herself as an artist knowing well her source of "inspiration" is copying from other original artist.
Jeez, you guys are pathetic, instead of bashing someone who doesn't have "skills" why don't YOU become a singer or an actor? And show us how it's all done? Now go get a life.
No surprise really, she settled on a no-talent troll for a husband and settled on a pop-tarted career for herself.
shes soo miserable- what is there to hate?
"If you hate me, you're the loser, not me" ???
Geez, sorry Avril. I didn't realize that I'm not entitled to an opinion…..
Ya got to hand it to ol' Avril. Never in the history of mass culture has there been ANYONE whose looks & actions seem* so contrived, and so much a product of senseless hyperbole, as this densest of beeyotches. ("Seems, madam? Nay, it is. I know not seems." - Hamlet of course. Oh, wait, Avril will PROBABLY STEAL THAT LINE TOO! Everyone from Shakespeare on down should hide everything from their published texts to their journals to their shopping-at-Target lists with Avril on the prowl.)
is anyone surprised? It's been proved time after time that she steals her music. Quick hint to Avril, people who are innocent fight the charges til' the bitter end. She basically admitted to stealing…..LMAO!!!
what peaches song did she steal?
what peaches song did she steal?
["If you hate me, you're the loser, not me" ] Well, dammit, I am the biggest loser in the world then. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. The biggest. I admit it. (Kicks self.) "Ouch, take that, you loser, that THAT!" They don't make 'em any lower than this shrimpy, no-talent plagiarist who, when her 15 minutes are finally up, will never be thought of again.
Re: barbie – That would be “I’m The Kinda” (a.k.a. AL's “I Don’t Have to Try”).
Chick looks like a 12 year old girl who is trying to look like a combo of marilyn manson, britney spears (the blonde/thin version) and ashley simpson.
SHe's a f'n poser who tried to act all tough and punk. She's like a damn little chihuaua yapping and nipping at people's heels.
Go back to Canada! Cali has enough posers with fake blonde hair, too much damn make up and no talent. So when's the boob job and spray tan gonna happen lameass.
People don't like you because you don't give than anything TO like!
This bitch is a capital C-U-N-T!!! you think she would be greatful that anyone would want to buy her shit ass music. someone needs to give her a serious reality check- fucking shit on her chest and ass rape that hoooo
Okay my reason for hating avril is.. shes is completley up her own ass. She thinks shes a rock icon and all the girls wanna copy her style … well no, you see all the girls who used to copy her style have grew up and realised thats shes an immature pratt and has to grow fucking up! I'm fed up with listening to her squeal on about her wanting to piss off and wanting to be better than else's girlfriend……oki WE GET IT AND YOU'VE KILLED IT…. has she not noticed that the only people who sing her songs are FUCKING CHAVS!!!!!!! OH …………..SACK YOUR STYLIST YOU RUG MUNCHER!!!!
does anyone else notice that she has a muffintop??!
HAHAAH 76/76 bad comment for this ugly cunt.
GO fuck yourself Avril, talentless bitch.
NO BITCH! YOUR THE LOSER…. FREAKING CRACK HEAD WHITE WHORE.
WHO FUCKING CARES IF SHE DOESNT LIKE MEXICANS, BECAUSE MEXICANS DONT LIKE WHITE CRACK HEAD WHORES LIKE HER….. STUPID LITTLE BITCH NEEDS A COCK UP HER ASSHOLE….. SHE'S CALLING HER FANS LOSERS? SURE SOUNDS LIKE IT, BUT SHE HAD TO WRITE IT DOWN IN A DIFFERENT WAY.. WHATTA FREAKING BITCH.. BOOO HOOOOO WHORE.
compare her "skater boi" to Toby Keiths "how do you like me now". he should sue her. same story.
LMAO couldn't have happened to a nicer girl. Now who's the loser, THEIF!! HACK!! NO TALENT!! Can't write your own, you gotta buy it, BITCH!!
Re: Yumbles Yumbo – Well said, well stated!!! Hope the bitch doesn't read this, because you know she'll steal your shit.
I always thought that song was by the Ramones. Either way, when I first heard Avril's song, I was like…..hey that sounds like "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend". Either way, she sucks in my book.
Looks like Britney isn't the only one with serious mental issuses. This bitch is seriously unstable.
My great grandmother is more punk rock than this chick! She really should just do us all a favor and kill herself.
The Rubinoos were great fun, and she totally ripped off their song. She's more of a bimbo than Britney!
this chick's a retard
Avril is the shit the music industry has tried to sell to the people that came after their other pop stars like Britney went down. Playing on the fact they thought the youth of today was all emo and into being rebellious and rocker like without actually having rock or originality, just being another poopy pop star dressed in faux punk clothes. But unlike her pop predecessors, theres nothing really interesting about Avril to grab people and make them interested in the shit she does or says.
OK..let's make one thing clear…it's spelled Canada, or Canadian…
Candian would say she was
