She’s Not MY Avril
You’ve likely heard the rumor by now that the Avril Lavigne we knew originally was replaced with a lookalike. The conspiracy theory stems from how Avril’s music and even look changed as she aged. This must have been due to being replaced with her occasional body double, Melissa Vandella, right? After all, Avril would never go from doing punk rock music to something like “Hello Kitty.” Let’s be obvious here for a second. Artists grow and change, which is why their music might reflect that. It is clear we knew Avril starting in her teen years, so once she reaches adulthood there is going to be a change. Not just in her music, but looks as well. Why is this such a problem? Believing stuff like this has caused some people to attack supposed “body doubles” of celebrities in the past. Some even aim to kill the “replacement.”
