Avril's Apology

Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand > When Celebrities Blog

wenn5091766__opt.jpg

Our favorite Canadian, April Lavigne, wants to speak to her fans from the heart.

The singer and "songwriter" just posted the following on her official blog.

She says:

"Hey Guys,

I am at home right now taking it easy. I have been sick this whole tour, and now I have lost my voice. I have never canceled a show in my whole career and just had to for the first time ever. This sux!

I am so sorry! I have been on the road for 60 days straight. I have had the flu 3 times and I never get sick, it just keeps going around. I think I am just run down. I just played 4 shows in a row in Texas (which is a lot for the vocals) and woke up in Vegas Tuesday with no voice. I thought I was gonna have to cancel that show, but I made it through…..barely! I still went on stage in Vegas and gave it my all, but unfortunately its interfering with my throat now. I had to eliminate songs.

I woke up yesterday and knew I wouldn't be able to sing last night. My voice is so shot. We drove home yesterday and I went to my throat doctor. He stuck a camera down my throat….ewwww, I gagged!!! It was kinda funny though…..he said I have "Acute Laryngitis".

So, um, yeah, that sux. I was supposed to play a show in San Diego yesterday and was supposed to perform on Jay Leno tomorrow and go live with Ryan Seacrest in the today, but I had to cancel that too. I'm at home resting my voice for 2 days and hope to be back out soon. Thank you for understanding. And once again, I sincerely apologize.

Avril"

Uh huh!

Excuses. Excuses.

    When Perez was thinner and more twinky, and Avril was not blonde and not fixated on living the Los Angeles lifestyle, the two were actually friends. (Well, "friends" in the sho-bidness sense of the term, but there are photos on the Web showing them being all pal-ly together.) But for some reason they had a falling out. I wish Perez would finally explain to us in one of his future Hate-Avril posts what exactly went down between them. He explained why he despises Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba, but between he and Avril, it must be so personal and hurtful that he won't discuss it.

    wow… effing lame. the band my boyfriend tours with probably tours twice, if not three times as much as her. EVERYONE gets sick on tour honey, including lead singers (which you're not). thank god jay leno didn't let a no talent HACK like yourself on his show. get over yourself, avril. you are not the only person that has ever been on a tour and gotten sick. you are the pretend tough chick that drinks more than she can handle and then calls her hangover a disease. we all hate you.

  10. pfft says – reply to this

    I bet she's getting overwhelmed with thank you notes. Maybe she should gargle with some sum 41 goo.

    That's what I like about Avril. She's contrite, she apologizes, she explains…a class act. I don't know how anybody can play a different city almost every night for months at a time. Hope she gets better soon!

    How old is this bitch? Her blog and writing makes her sound like a stupid 15 year old.. no wait most 15 year olds sound more intelligent than that!!

    119

    Perez go fuck yourself. If she can't sing she can't sing. Go listen to one of the other bitches you can't stop talking about. I am sure the record labels are giving you kickbacks - if they are not then you need to re-jig your business model.

  26. ab says – reply to this


    126

    perez! her use of the word "sux" and the phrase "ewwww i gagged" is proof that she is an extraordinary songwriter. :)

    i knew when she first came out that her novelty pinkypunk image would fade fast, and that she would crash and burn in a humiliating manner. it's been worth the wait.. haha

  27. Skept says – reply to this


    127

    This is bullshit! She didn't gag when the doctor stuck the camera down her throat.

    voice or no voice, talent or no talent, she's making huge amounts of cash and can do whatever the hell she wants. You all sound like a bunch of jealous american fat ass redneck white trash losers.

    130

    She didnt look so sick when I saw her stumbling out of a nightclub a few weeks ago in Tampa. Sick my ass! She has been partying her ass off and her fans have to suffer for it. She had the bouncers of the club clear a way so she could get to her tour bus without anyone bothering her. Guess what! No one even cared that she was there!! We all just took 1/2 step aside and she stumbled on by, covering her face. No one ran after her, no one asked for an autograph cause she sucks!!!

  31. Skepteon says – reply to this


    131

    A little self absorbed? In those few paragraphs…Avril used the word "I" or "me" - 26 times !

    I saw Avril in Vegas on the 29th, and you could tell she was having voice problems, but she did great regardless. It is not an EXCUSE. it is definitly for real. And as for the ticket sales, The Pearl was just about sold out. Quit being such a dumbass. Not everyone is a liar like Perez Hilton.

    Re: ur starting to look like a dick
    Wow what you said makes so much sense. I mean the way you totally tell off Perez for putting down such moral people like Avril….I mean wow. I dont get how Perez can Expose these celebrities lifes like this……oh wait…I CAN! Its a celebrity Gossip site you douche, what do you thinks is going to be on here? If you are so high and mighty and above all of it why are you on the site? And to answer your question, Perez contributes entertainment to millions of people everyday….and you know what you contribute to Perez by reading his site…isint it Ironic…dont cha think?
    what the hell has avril ever contributed besides shitty music, bad teeth and spitting on people? If you dont like it stay off the site!

  37. APRIL SUCKS! says – reply to this


    137

    You know I could really care less if avril was sick or drunk, becuase she is a huge bitch. Everyone hates her. I listen to John jay and rich in arizona and everytime they have her on they talk so much crap about her afterwards and they mess with her during the interview because they have had so many bad experiences with her in the past. The whole interview all she talks about is how great she is and she calls herself a superstar. Okay even if you are a superstar….you dont call yourself one. SHE IS A HUGE SPITTING BITCH!

    Re: DALE
    you know evertime I see you post I laugh so hard. Because its like you think anyone on here gives a shit about what you have to say. Like you are some intellectual who is making strong points against perez. You talk shit about his postings and his readers yet *GASP* you read every single Avril post there is! keep reading douche, all your are doing is giving Perez more hits on his site. Keep supporting Perez buddy. Oh and Avril sucks, what kind of a douche sticks up for avril? HA!

    i'm glad drinking is a higher priority than her fans.
    sheee is a dirttyyy biiiitcccchhhhh who needs to stop with these excuses.
    and if she actually IS sick, which i doubt, then i hope she stays sick and never recovers

    isn't that excuse a joke from "walk the line" where june carter says, "I can't sing, I've got the Laryngitis".
    it's done, avril! that's just an excuse to bail on your shitty tour.

  55. k.d. says – reply to this


    155

    Wow! Some of you people have a lot of built up agression being released… OVER AVRIL LAVIGNE!!! Come on! As a Canadian, she offends me, but for the sake of the arguement and trying to stay neutral, let's look at her career: started as a teen with a catchy pop song and a tie; moved forward with the red and black skulls and stripes in the emo movement; disappeared for a bit; got married and is now touring again… to shows with 15 year olds.
    Avril isn't a vioce, she's a gimmick; a gimmick that only caters to pre-adolescent teenagers, for that matter! Granted, a 25 year old friend of mine went to the concert (here in Calgary) and said it was FANTASTIC! BUT she dressed up like a 13 year old and was embarrassed the entire time! If you want to defend Perez's "harsh" comments about this washed-up, immature, pop-princess than that's your perogative, but don't get pissy at him for calling her on what she is! He has never preteneded to be anything that he isn't: physically or otherwise. He's tOtAlLy just a gimmick too, the only difference is that he'll know when to either stop or move on to bigger and better things.
    Ps: If you're really getting so upset over Avril Lavigne being insulted, i suggest that you go to your local record/cd store and listen to some new music because regardless of her "talent" there are WAAAAAAAAAAAAY better musicians out there!!

  56. Eric Rittenbaugh says – reply to this


    156

    I AM NOT A FAN SO I DON'T CARE BUT SHE COULD OF EASILY SAID THIS:

    Hey guys,

    I am sorry for the cancellations. I love everyone and please understand that I needed to cancel, what I love doing the most, for a serious & personal reason.

    Again, I LOVE EVERYONE.

    ——– Too much information in her ad really hurt her…….

  57. Igirl says – reply to this


    157

    I still don't understand what Avril ever did that was so horrible. She's a better role model than Paris and Lindsay, and Miley, for that matter. I don't see why you need to contantly pick on her. Here and there, I know you pick on everyone, which is fine. But you seem to have a real issue with her for no apparent reason, and it comes off as very childish.

  58. Kate says – reply to this


    158

    Dude, if she can't sing, she can't sing. Seriously, there's nothing you can do about a medical condition like that except take medicine and wait it out. She's definitely not my favorite singer, but it's just petty and pathetic and desperate to take a cheap shot at her just because she got so sick she couldn't sing.

    I think she canceled the concerts because her tour sucks and nobody want to go to her concerts. avril why don't you just say the truth, say that nobody bought tickets, that voice thing is a stupid excuse

    Re: DALE – get over yourself.
    Do you really think that it's so hard to plan this a few days before.
    Just because she said it a few days before doesn't make it's true.
    I've pretended to not feel well, and make a point of saying it to people, when I knew that I would be phoning in sick for work on a certain day. Makes it more believable. DUH

    Re: Miss World – You're a complete idiot and don't know the first thing about making a decent argument. In fact you make no sense.
    Saying something positive is no more productive than saying something negative. Me replying to your comment is no better and no worse than you replying to whoever you were talking to.
    Just do yourself a favor and shut up already.

    166

    Re: Franklin – no there wasnt. there was ONE photo of them taken together and just because you get a photo taken with someone doesnt mean you were their friend! lmfao.
    perez will be like those weird autograph collectors who just try to get autographs (or photos) with as many celebrities as possible. just so that they can say they met them/got their autograph. they just want their list to be as big as possible. did you ever think that maybe his dislike stems from their meeting in that he just did not like her personality or found her to be rude? (or hated her before he met her but just got a photo taken anyway) you all seem to be suggesting that it was something along the lines of she wouldn't do something for perez, like WHAT, ffs. he got a photo with her an probably an autograph, what more could he possibly want

  67. anthony says – reply to this


    167

    perez get over ur obbsesion with avril avril is the best she could have gone on with her concert and lip sync'd but she didnt cause she's not like that,I have been to her concerts and she's amazing truly amazing,she's sick right now and cant tour right now,see thast where u dont get it u can be sick all u want cause all ur job is is too sit at your computer all day and bash celebrities…easiest job in the world….oh and the whole canada loves perez im from canada..and trust me there are more haters here of you than lovers…

  68. Curtis Matthews says – reply to this


    168

    K Listen!
    Firstly, i only come on here to see what bullshit you have come up with and possibly get a VERY washed down version of the truth.
    I dont get what your deal is with Avril Lavigne, but when the girl says she cant sing, and its the first time she has ever cancelled a show, can you not just like that go.
    She is sick , she feels bad and she needs to get better. If that was one of your favorite artists you would be on here writing a lame blog saying "GET BETTER".
    Your a fucking condescending, hypocritical moron.
    I can not believe the media SOURCES you.
    What Credentials do you have? Really!?!
    And Your knowledge of Fashion is just about as much as my dog would know.
    Your not famous, and you have no say in what others should be doing with their lives.
    The Sick part, is when people like Heidi Montag come on here and say they love you. After you have called her everyname in the book. That amazes me.
    Next time you think your at the top. may i remind you your at the bottom of the food chain! :)

  69. come on says – reply to this


    169

    admit it guys.

    Avril's era is over.

    And you mentally unstable people that seemingly hate Perez so much, why come and read his page?

    Maybe u should take photos of your ugly faces and post them up somewhere.

    We'll love to criticize ya!

    Why are you all sipping the Hatorade? She's either sick or burned out. Either way a indication that she just needs a break. If you've never called in sick to or because you just needed a mental health day, then post your negative comments, you jealous winches!

    THEY COULD HIT THE NOTES TOO. AND THEY PUT ON A AWESOME SHOW.. AND THIS LIP SYNCING CRAP THESE DAYS - SACRILEGE PURE SACRILEGE!!!

    THESE WANNABE POP STARS TODAY DON'T KNOW WHAT REAL WORK IS MUCH LESS WHAT REAL MUSIC IS!!! I CALL THEM GENERATION SUX! THEY COME UP WITH 1 OR 2 SONGS THAT THESE TEENYBOPPERS LIKE AND THEY ARE BIG STARS & WILL REMAIN SO…

    THERE ARE SO MANY BANDS THAT NOT ONLY HAD ONE HIT WONDERS BUT ACTUALLY MADE IT BUT THE SPENDING TRENDS AND LIFE STYLES THEN AND NOW IS THE BIGGEST DOWNFALL AND THEN THE WAKE UP ONE DAY AND WONDER WHAT HAPPENED… WHERE IT ALL WENT AND THAT IT WILL NEVER BE THERE AGAIN… SO SAD!!!

    HEY SHE HAS THE LOOK TO BE AN EXTRA IN A ROCK VIDEO AS LONG AS SHE DON'T OPEN HER MOUTH!

    I WILL DANCE ON YOUR FUCKIN GRAVE! Yeah!

  75. Heh. says – reply to this


    175

    Sorry but you people saying "Good, I hope she never sings again" or whatever should fuck off. Sure you may not like her, but wishing that on someone is pathetic. There are so many fans out there going to see her live in the next few months (Myself being one of them) and to want her to never sing again? Shut up. I've had my tickets for little over 6 months and I'd be bitterly disappointed if she cancelled the show I'm going to.

    What's funny is that this bitch is such a liar- I live in CT and when she first had a "career" Avril was due to come to Hartford in September 2002. Well…guess what? She canceled…I guess she just forgot…

    You guys need to see Avril Lavigne-The Copy Girl on Youtube. It shows her stealing Fergie's, Geen Day's, Amy Lee's, Britney's, and Gwen Stefani's stlyes. You need to watch it. She's such a hack. Boo Avril. You need to die out already.
