Must Be Hard to Live With Insecurity

Filed under: Avril Lavigne > Canadialand > Wacky, Tacky & True

avrilsad.jpg

One of Avril Lavigne's back up dancers has revealed that the popwreck is an insecure mess and a diva to work with!

Sara Von Gillern might be out of a job soon!

The So You Think You Can Dance alum was asked during a recent interview if Avril is difficult to work with as she's painted to be in the press?

After a loooooong pause Sara told me that Avril's "really rad and fun to work with." Ah, just one year in the biz and she's already spinning like a pro. But then again this breaker knows a thing or two about spinning. Since she was rocking a seriously spiky and streaked hairdo, I asked if the new look was for the tour. "Actually, it's a rule we all have to have dark hair, there can only be one blonde on the stage," she told me about blonde Avril. "One of the other dancers is bleach blonde but she has to wear a wig. She actually has like five different dark ones."

Yet another thing that proves Avril is a douche.

    Perez, just please go fuckign bury yourself under a pile of horseshit, because you are just a cunt. You think Avril is insecure? You are the most insecure person alive, you fat repulsive fuck. You make me physically sick with your disgusting, hypocrisy. And lets not even mention how you look which would make anyones eyes bleed. Fucking sick hypocrite, just crawl under a rock somewhere

    What's the big deal about the hair? It's a known rule that back up dancers need to be shorter and less dominant than the actual singer.

    That doesn't make her a bitch. That is part of the business. And Bleached Blonde hair is no LA and so horrible, that it's a good thing she is using a wig.

    Perez you need to stop being so damn hateful did u have a bad experience with Avril because its obvious u love to twist the stories. The same goes with Jessica Alba every time u have a blog on her its negative! Stop holding so much hatred for people,the jokes and funny drawings on the pictures are great but u continue to do this and its just stupid.

    I don't mind Avril, I've liked some of her songs the last couple of years..but I liked her best when she came out with her first album. By the second one she started to change a lot and I had lost a lot of interest in her as a performer.

    Kind of shocks me that she is performing with the Jonas Brothers, as someone said I thought she was "punk" or "rock" what is she doing performing with a Disney Channel pre teen/young teen pop band? Maybe it is to pull in ticket sales because she knows the young girlies will fill the audience on the tour besides her own fans. Have no clue. But, then again Avril has sounded more "pop" through the years.

    As far as the hair thing, yeah it's a little silly, but I can see the concept of it. She wants to stand out amongst her dancers.

    Just my own thoughts.

    114

    Ok, I think Avril is a talentless hack and she's probably a spoiled brat too. But for the one blond clause, I'm not at all suprised by it and I don't blame Avril's being a diva on this either. This is a concert - it's a show. Avril did not put this thing together, TRUST ME. Someone in charge of her, and her show made this rule. I've not seen many - if any - blond back up dancers for Madonna either. They want to make the lead pop! They do it in musical theather, they do it in Vegas. Don't blame this on Avril - there are plenty of other sound arguments against her.

    120

    I don't think she's totally wrong. Imagine if you go to her concerte and get bad place. Stay far away of the stage. If there was more than one blond person on this, how do you gonna recognize who Avril lavigne is? I thing it's pretty smart.

    hey perez vai dar o CU na esquina sua bixa adoidada!
    Só uma pessoas muito recalcada mesmo é capaz de viver as custas da vida dos outros.
    triste isso, não?

    Avril não precisa da sua opinião sobre a vida dela, e acho que ninguém precisa.
    Vá viver sua vida e deixe os outros em paz!!!
    bom, acho que ninguém entendeu o que eu disse, mas tudo bem :P

  33. Cale says – reply to this


    133

    This is the kind of thing the media loves to blow out of proportion. Stupid. If I was a director staging a tour for an artist, this would make plenty of sense to me. Hardly seems like something that Avril demanded because she's an insecure diva blah blah whatever. But of course with a few facts and a "long pause" it turns into a story… oh well…

    I think Avril has a lot of talent. I dont understand why you put pointless shit trashing talented artists on here, but then you have lame ass videos that you pride to shit like your dog getting a hair cut. I love most of the stuff on your site, but your material is starting to get lame, it makes sense that they have to have darker hair than her, that way she stands out, you may not like her, but you are acting like ten times more of a diva then she is by calling her down all the time, why not go find a good story instead of posting all this lame shit
    avril has talent, she makes good money, she has her own life, what the fuck is so bad about that?

    Avril Lavigne is not punk. Avril Lavigne is a disguise. She uses her image to exploit other people’s ignorance. “I won’t say I am punk but I will dress like I am punk.” All she is is an image. Everything else is just smoke and mirrors. Avril Lavigne is a hack. Don’t be fooled. And for all you people who worship this bitch Fuck You. The number 1 commandment; Do Not Worship Other People. And also Avrils 10 commandments that I read, Fuck That. Avril doesn’t need to be separating herself from the rest of us. She just needs to be a performer plain and simple.

    What a strange thing to rag on Avril for. Next, you'll be criticizing her for telling the dancers what costumes to wear, and what moves to do.

    Hey, what about Steven Spielberg making Cate Blanchett wear a dark wig in Indy 4? What a fucking dick!

    look at beyonce and other good artists …

    I met avril, seh's very nice and very shy. She really has a good voice (even Perez has to confess that!) and of course: money changes the poeple.
    but as long as Avril wears underwear …^^

    give her a chance fools.

    THERE'S MORE AVRIL LOVER COMMENTS THAN AVRIL HATER COMMENTS. fuuuuuuucck the haters, she's sellin out a bit now, but everyone goes through that. she writes her OWN songs, look at the talent on her first cds. she's smart, and talented. fuck baggin on her, i never will. and as for the blonde thing? that's what some people have to do to make them stand out from the other dances to notice them apart. she's naturally a blonde too byyyy the way. fuck the haters, i love her.

    Is she ever going to shut up and grow up? I'm just sick of her continuing to walk around and make the announcement of how punk rock she is - when she's not even pop-punk! Seriously, when is the last time anyone bought one of her CDs and DIDN'T use it as a coaster? Someone please slap the stupid outta this girl!

    AFTER cancelling a string of gigs earlier this month due to laryngitis, Avril Lavigne found her voice in Glasgow on the first date of her UK tour.

    AFTER cancelling a string of gigs earlier this month due to laryngitis, Avril Lavigne found her voice in Glasgow on the first date of her UK tour.

    The Canadian singer began the first of her two sell-out gigs at the Carling Academy with an energetic set.

    But, despite her best efforts, her performance fell short of expectations. It lasted only an hour and failed to include all 20 tracks performed at her home shows.

    The predominantly teenage crowd didn't seem to mind and screamed their appreciation.

    But such a short show could hardly live up to the tour name, the Best Damn Tour.

    Highlights included power ballads My Happy Ending, I'm With You and When You're Gone. But hit tracks such as Girlfriend and Sk8er Boi, performed to march-like dance routines, made Lavigne look uncomfortable

  52. haha@ the logic says – reply to this


    152

    You are all wrong. (the ones sticking up for Avril)
    They have screens to put up so you can see the performer clearly if it is a big venue and people feel it's that important.
    If not (no screens) maybe the artist ought to do something else to stand out, like actually BE the star of the show ???
    It's not hard to tell what the fuck is going on. She stands in the middle of the stage and is THE ONE WITH THE MIC !!
    If you're so far away that all you can see is either a blob of blonde hair or a blob of black/brown hair then why did you even bother going?
    If you can't make out their faces from where you're sitting/standing then her having a different hair colour isn't going to matter at all, because you won't actually be able to see Avril, only the colour of her hair.
    So you see a vague figure with a certain colour of hair. Why is it so important to tell the vague figures apart from one another? It won't matter.
    LOL retards.

    153

    Re: J_Brisby – just a thought, maybe a girl who claimed she was a Punk Rocker, and now a rocker, should not actually HAVE cheesy pop routines and back up dancers, hmmm?
    The fact is Hair Color of other people on stage shouldn't be an issue.
    She is supposed to just go out with her band and perform, and everyone keeps their own hair color and is true to themselves and not told what to do.
    Something she claimed, and still claims to be all about.
    This is NOT a broadway show. So don't try and use the same 'rules'.

    CARLING ACADEMY, GLASGOW

    ALTHOUGH she is all grown up now at 23, Avril Lavigne still looks and sounds like most of her teenage audience, with a dash of crazy colour in her hair, sparkly eyeshadow, tomboy T-shirt and skull-and-crossbones logo embroidered on the knee of her jeans just to show she's a teeny bit rebellious.

    However, this is rebellion Disney-style. Lavigne can let out a bratty punk scream when she wants to, but her set was full of carefully manicured, high-energy guitar pop. Neither an outsider icon nor charismatic star, she is more of an Everygirl performer, eager to show off her one-handed cartwheel, her limited drumming abilities and her collection of pink, sparkly guitars – for which, sweetly, she elicited enthusiastic squeals from the fans.

    This was the first date of her world tour, which may account for the perfunctory performance, only enlivened by a troupe of dancers. Lavigne's voice sounded thin and shrieky, but the audience came to sing along and there was plenty opportunity for that during the opening Girlfriend, Complicated, My Happy Ending and the belting ballad I'm With You.

    Energy levels picked up in the encore, which featured Toni Basil's Mickey and maximised the cheerleader potential of her own catchy catalogue. She rounded off her routine with the obligatory Sk8er Boi, the quintessential teen melodrama which may become her musical millstone as she tries to ease out of eternal adolescence.

    AMAZING REVIEW of yesterday's SOLD OUT concert in the UK!

    ***Avril Lavigne thrills from start to snappy ending***

    Pint-sized singer Avril Lavigne wowed a sold out audience with her biggest hits and songs from her latest album The Best Damn Thing, and to be honest, it wasn't that far off.

    As a 22-year-old male I wasn't expecting to be impressed with the pop-punk princess, but I soon found myself fully embracing her in-your-face rebellious rock 'n' roll attitude.

    It's easy to forget how many hits the 23-year-old has actually racked up since her debut album Let Go went platinum at the tender age of 17, but I was soon reminded.

    The Canadian rocker opened the set with an electric rendition of Girlfriend that had everyone singing along and waving their glowsticks frantically in the air.

    Avril then displayed her multitude of talents by performing the drums, piano and guitar at various times in the set, as well as bouncing around the stage with her backing dancers, to her slickly choreographed dance moves.

    The show was all about Avril, but the packed crowd were fully involved throughout, singing along to classics like Happy Ending, When You're Gone, Complicated and I'm With You.

    advertisementBetween songs the audience were treated to several displays of extraordinary street and break-dancing from her energetic backing dancers, that kept her rocking fans hyped up and ready for more.

    The night was wrapped up with her best-known single, Sk8ter Boi, that ensured everyone was on their feet, and that I was actually a little disappointed it all had to end.

    HER TOUR IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!
    she returns better than ever she's a queen in europe right now

    AVRIL ROCKS!!!!
