Avril Cancels Auditions!
Avril Lavigne is doing the right thing!
After PerezHilton.com exposed the star's shoddy treatment of her employees, it seems like she's doing something about it.
The dance community was set to boycott the singer and "songwriter" for offering to pay backup dancers below industry rate on her upcoming tour.
Now, the Dancer's Alliance just posted this update Monday night, saying:
"As of February 4th, 10:30pm Avril's management has canceled the audition tomorrow and has opened up a new conversation with the agencies. Thanks for everyone's support on this issue."
Stand up for your rights, dancers!
Demand what you are worth.

Check out Barack's inspirational music video feat. Black Eyed Pea's, John Legand, Common, and many more!!! Go to Youtube and search YES WE CAN!
avril can suck it. i love perezzzzzz
She looks amazingly hot.
woohoo
Wow, she's pathetic. NO TALENT !!
I thought she was "punk rock"??? why would she have background dancers.
I am not a big fan of hers, but I wonder why people hate her so much. Was it one incidence that sparked the hatred, or did it happen over time?? Its not because of that song that people said she copied is it?
******** Hater Vs Hater ****************************
Media likes to DISS AVRIL cuz she keeps yelling and giving mid finger at the photogs
Go to you tube and type in YES WE CAN. Watch the first video that is there for some great inspiration.
Thought she was punk rick, what the fuck does she need fucking backup dancers for? Sounds like she is just in it for the money!!!! Bitch is a phoney!

HAVING DANCERS IS SO PUNK RAWK!
:P
They were already going to be paid what they were worth. Guess that's not good enough for the union though. They don't like the free market rates and want to inflate the wages.
she is such a loser.
Sam Lutfi Text Messages
After we posted a story about Sam Lutfi that contained disturbing info about his relationship with Britney, and threats he had made, we began getting emails about other people who have also received threatening texts from him (one of those people is Danni Brubaker, the photographer accused of 'stealing' Britney's family photos and selling them to OK Magazine. We will be doing a new post with those text messages soon. You can see the ones we already posted at bittenandbound.com
her eyes are all fucked up! I guess it's sexy to have lazy eyes nowdays
They say a dog and their owner always look alot alike. I bet you she has a pug
Where the fuck are her eyes?? Creepy!!
I met Avril once. It was before she got married and it was through a friend of mine who used to do personal assisting work for her. I extended my hand out to shake hers and she swatted mine away.
wish dancers in brazil were THAT comitted with each other =/
Re: Jayj – What was the name of your friend because Avril has only had 2 PA and I know their names , so speak up or shut up.

Avril would be better off without these dancers $ 1500 for 4 hours a day on 4 shows - 16 hours a week , they need to get real
Thank God for myspace bulletins and Perez cause she was going to have an empty audition tomorrow we were all ready to leave you hanging, Avril! So up those rates and we'll be ready.
And to the industry: Stop being shady to dancers cause models always get paid
Makeup Looks Nice.
Soul Doesn't.
I don't really like Avril, but I pretty sure she is not the one in charge of paying the dancers. It is probably her management or some kind of advisers. She is not incharge of handing out the paychecks. Shame on whoever is though. I'm not an expert, so if I am wrong, poo on Avril!
Celebrities are damn CHEAP! Avril has always been cheap. After she got her record deal ($1 mil) she got a crappy little apartment in Toronto and spent her money on Chuck Taylors and ties.
The dancers need to be paid… they work hard too.
THIS BRAINLESS HAS BEEN IS OVER !!!
Re: rod – yeah, well, how much does avril get for the same amount of time, doing what? a bad attitude while lip synching? yeah, that's what i thought. those dancers will be carrying her poser bratty ass & making what would be an otherwise worthless show. guy, you're the one that needs to get real.
The above poster is probably correct,, I'm sure Avril herself didn't know about this little"cheap out" episode,,,but I'm sure she found out and knows now, after the fact.It makes her look like a douche and she can do that herself. It just shows once again what a TOOL she is ( doesn't know whats going on) and apparantly what TOOLS work for her that they can make hundreds of thousands of dollars and pay shit wages, no perdiems
and any other shady thing they can drum up in their cheap ass minds.Not industry stadard and not legal. This is AMERICA godammit,,,start acting like it. Good for you dancers and others for galvanizing,,,and even though i hate you most of the time Perez sometimes (ever so often ) you do something that redeems a small bit of your other bull shit. So heres to you Fatty and Teddy.
Too bad her inside doesn't match her outside. She has a smoking hot body under there and I'd like to see her nekked.
Perez, Thank you so much!!!
Now if she'd only cancel her "career" and go away! You suck Avril.
Is she the spawn of Elvira???..Sure looks like it! Just needs the black wig and outfit to match!..(minus the boobs tho..she's flat)
whats with the red blotches on her neck and under her pit???? flea bites???
She looks like that bruisy banana on the left hand side.
RATFACE.
Im glad she is fixing the situation..I really hope she does not cancel her tour..I got tickets for my dd's b.day..Its a surprise..and i would hate to have her heart broken..
she is so gross..wtf is on her skin?? LoOve you peRez
she suck! she really suck! i hate her songs, i hate her attitude!. she got no talent. i don't know why the hell this bitch got famous. good thing people are coming into their senses that this slut is totally a waste of crap!
i'm so happy about this!! no one messes with dancer biotch!!
also, to highlight this point if shes so "punk rock" why the hell would she need backup dancers??
What a cheap bitch. With all her money she can't afford to pay the dancers what they deserve? Hopefully she has learned a lesson from this, you can't cheat people out of their money. Just like you have to give other writers songs credit for the songs on your albums, right Avril?
I MUST SAY THAT I HATE AVRIL,, BUT PEREZ LOOK AT HER EYE MAKE-UP IN THIS PICTURE….. IT FUCKING ROCKS!!!!!!! WHO EVER DID HER MAKE-UP FOR THIS KICKS ASSSSSSSSSSS
LOVE YOU PEREZ (sometimes)
Wow. She looks a tad bit classy! Surprise the hell outta me.
Re: rod – You need to shut up and get a life.
Re: Joe Blow – LOL
This thing will go on. I was paid 2000 pr MONTH AFTER TAXES as a freegin ON-AIR REPORTER!!! And if you don't take the gig, there are a zillion younger people just waiting to pounce on your job. Entertainment pay blows, unless you are freegin ELLEN!!!!
what a FUCKING CHEAP ASS!!!!!!WITH ALL THE MONEY SHE HAS,I CAN'T STAND THAT MIDGET
I thought she was supposed to be a "rocker." A Punk rocker with dancers? IDTS. She is such a child. She reminds me of the bratty kid that lived across the street from me when I was a teenager and my mom MADE me babysit her b/c my mom was friends with her mom. Then when I got there to watch the little shit for the evening, she had glitter and hot pink stripes in her hair, a tu-tu and black and white striped tights and was running around making the rock and roll sign and yelling "peace out" while sticking out her juvenile idiotic tongue and carrying one of those echo-mics and singing "Genie in a bottle"
Perez Hilton, agent for change.

Re: Bubu – Yeah right, lol…I suppose that is why Avril was the best selling female artist in the world in 2007, according to worldwidealbums.net
Once Avril found out her management had mishandled the dancer’s auditions she asked them to stop to auditions so she could make sure the situation satisfactory to all parties involved. Avril’s management screwed up not Avril. Have a little faith Avril always treats the people who work for her right, always!
You've got a lot of power, Perez. Use it wisely.
dude seriously take that pink shit off your head
I doubt Avril was involved in the initial wage setting; the team that was arranging the video filming would only have knowledge of this. Avril is a decent person, and those of you who join in this bad mouthing are far worse than she ever was.
NO, I think that people who talk shit about her more sucks the her… I love her, and I think that she knows what she's doing. And U guys should watch your own bussines. She doesn't talk shits about U so U should stop doing this… AVRIL ROCKS in purpose to all U haters.
she looks like a foot
Her musics so lame!
She needs to make up something new!
Punk girl,lol, ……..nothing more than a spoiled moneygrubbing brat and a
traitorous kindergarten princess!
For shame!
Is that a second head growing out of her armpit? Nasty pimply bitch…
Her eyes look beautiful!
she has pink rashey stuff on her!
have dinner at Koi!!! NOW!!!
Dear Avril:
PLease lose the shiteous pink manic panic.
You look like an idiot.
Oh and you should probably just kill yourself too.
That's all
wut she need dancers 4 anyway, u can't dance to none of her music
Re: Miss Directed – You really need to get a life. This isn't the first that I've read about Avril being a real douche. You need to stop defending her, because I'm sure the little bitch wouldn't spit on you if you were on fire.
Re: Schooby91 – You can quit the act. I don't think she's going to read your stupid little comment. Everyone knows Avril is a bratty bitch.
Forget about Avril. No one cares about her any longer. Why aren't you talking about me?
Eww Avril is a nasty lil' bitch
She looks like shes about 2 fart!
Hey, I hate you
JUST AS LONG AS SHE DOESN'T TRY TO DANCE ANYMORE! LEAVE IT TO THE SINGERS WHO ACTUALLY CAN DANCE PLEASE AVI!
whats with everyone in this world who cares really,who cares what this douch bag has to say like what the hell is wrong with perez like really dude get a life a real life this is a joke you cant do this shit for ever what when you grow older and die and people are at ur funeral what are they gunna say…oh perez you accomplished alot in life all those celebrities you dissed it really got you far and we are sooo proud of you????like wtf…it's a joke really.. and people are gunna proboly bad mouth this comment…I say go ahead… it's what perez wants…
why would anyone with a fiber of knowledge endorse either of those two phony wanna-be's
man i wish my pay was $1100 a week. grow up you cry babies, get real
she has like a rash. there are blotches all over her.
AVRIL YOU ROCK!!! we love you you are the best!
CAVED!!
WHY WOULD A 'PUNK' NEED DANCERS FOR A TOUR ANYWAY
?????????!!!!!!?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????
Re: Obama vs Clinton=??? – No, they got word that she was getting MORE bad press and had to try and sort it out quickly before more people found out.
There's not much they could have done except cancel them if all the dancers were going to refuse to go!!! lol
I hate this bitch. I hate her because she is the most annoying human ever. And hot. I would like to play with those little boobies all night long. And then donkey punch her. And as for dancers, screw them. If you decided to dance for a living, you should be amazed that anyone would pay you a dime.
the "dancers" should be glad they are getting paid at all and avoiding having to get a real job
Perez, you´re great..
She may be a turd but her eye makeup looks fierce.
I cannot even describe to you the disgust and repulsion I feel towards this useless fucking twat. I swear to god if I had even a second alone in a room with her I would grab her by her blonde stringy hair and smash her face into the nearest, hardest surface in the room. I would rather open wounds up all over my body and squeeze lemon juice right the fuck into them then have to ever see her mousy, pointy fucking face EVER THE FUCK AGAIN.
She had better not show her face in public in Calgary because it is liable to be spit on.
FUCK YOU AVRIL LAVIGNE
eu amoooo avril lavigne
perez, PLEASE!
stop with this..
it's ridiculous!
Re: madboy –
since when is dancing not a "real" job? sorry you're bitter because ur "real" job is at McDonalds!! I suppose acting and singing are not "real" jobs either!
It's sad you're hating because you're not doing what you love…
well she probly does not even know how to deal with finaces or her employees. for shame any way.
Avril Lavigne IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD she is like sooooooooooo my idol so alll you other ppl SHUT UP!
I really hate that she's canadian….it's embarassing.
They are worth NOTHING if they keep working for Avril LaFAKE!!!
