In the past few years, Canadian singer Avril Lavigne has been treated for a serious illness, which is why she practically did not work and did not appear on the carpet. But all the bad things are left behind, and the singer is going to release her new album.
Biography and musical career
The full name of the Canadian singer is Avril Ramona Lavigne. She was born in the small provincial town of Belleville in 1984. From early childhood, she dreamed of writing music, singing and becoming famous throughout the world thanks to her work. Parents fully supported their daughter and went to meet her, acquiring musical instruments and going to karaoke with her. She wrote her first full-fledged composition as a teenager.
At the age of 14, Lavigne won a local radio competition. Then she publicly announced that she was going to become a world famous performer. Such openness and unsurpassed talent of the girl won over many professionals in the music industry. She began to offer joint work and producer services. Already in 2000, she signed a contract for a million dollars. Avril dropped out of school and devoted herself entirely to music and her catchy image.
A couple of years later, Avril Lavigne opened her debut album to the world. It quickly became the top-selling music album of this year. The songs from it were for a long time on the first lines in the tops of Canada, England, USA, Australia and other countries. Everyone admired the young performer and awarded her victories in various prestigious awards, because rarely an artist manages to become so popular after the very first album.
In 2004, the singer embarked on a big two-year tour, in which she sang new tracks from the second album along with her guitarist. The new tracks again brought Lavigne multimillion-dollar royalties and awards. In 2007, the song "Girlfriend" was released from the third compilation, which was downloaded by the millions in the very first weeks. Avril Lavigne re-recorded the song in 7 more languages. It is noteworthy that the song contains profanity, but Avril Lavigne recorded this passage with different words especially for the radio version.
Already from 3 albums, the popularity of the Canadian singer began to fade away. The songs began to make their way to the tops much less often, the albums themselves began to sell worse. In 2011, the fourth collection was released, in 2013 - the fifth. In 2016, Avril announced that she was already working on the 6th album, but she was diagnosed with Lyme disease, so the release of the new collection was delayed. In 2018, the singer announced on social media that she was ready to go again.
Other activities
In addition to songwriting, Avril Lavigne tries himself in other fields of activity. In 2006, she took part in the voice acting of the animated film "Forest Brotherhood", starred in the films "Fast Food Nation" and "Flock". In 2018, the cartoon "Prince Charming" will be released, in which Snow White will speak with the voice of a Canadian singer. The performer is also engaged in her own business: in 2008 she developed a line of specially designed guitars, in the same year she launched her own clothing brand. A year later, she released her perfume.
The singer regularly participates in actions dedicated to the fight against AIDS, environmental problems and compensation for the consequences of destruction from natural disasters. In 2010, she opened her own fund to raise money for sick children and adolescents.
Personal life
In 2005, the singer got married for the first time. The chosen one was punk singer Deryck Whibley. Three years later, the couple broke up, but everything went without scandals. Lavigne has publicly stated that she is grateful to her ex-husband for all this time, and that they will remain friends.
In 2013, the performer decided to get married again: Chad Kruger, a musician, became a new couple for her. Unfortunately, just two years later, the couple announced their separation, but after the singer recovered, they began to be seen together again.
In 2014, the young performer was diagnosed with Lyme disease, which appears due to a tick bite. A couple of years later, Avril Lavigne announced that she was already on the mend, and in 2018 she again began to appear at stellar events. Currently, the singer devotes most of her free time to her health: she practices yoga, surfing, eats right and has been a vegetarian for many years.
