[歌手介绍]

　　Avril Lavigne is anything but ordinary. She started singing at age 2 and was often in the local paper. She performed at churches, country fairs, Christmas concerts and talent shows. Three years ago, she won a radio competition to duet with Shania Twain on "What Made You Say That" at the star's Ottawa show.

　　She first appeared as a spunky teenager crafting surprisingly sharp alternative pop-rock that sounded great on the radio. Avril was one of many tender-aged smart-pop stars who came up in the early 2000s, a group that included Michelle Branch, Norah Jones and Vanessa Carlton.

　　She released her second album, Under My Skin, in 2004, expanding upon her catalogue of sharp, smart radio tunes and leaving the teenager thing behind. There was something about her even then. Cute with blue eyes, she wore no make-up, was dressed in a cool, dark green T-shirt with long orange sleeves, her dirty-blonde, shoulder- length hair in dozens of tiny braids.And she barely spoke a word. One couldn't help but be intrigued and wonder what kind of pipes this quiet 15-year-old possessed. But she is definitely more outgoing now. She is opinionated, smart and, one suspects, a little amused by all the pandering the "adult" world shows her now that she has a hit album, Let Go, and her face plastered all over magazines and television.

　　And she's also just a girl with a bell-clear voice and the ability to bottle youthful anguish and enthusiasm into tidy, infectious songs.

　　绝不平凡！这对Avril Lavigne 而言已经算是温和的形容词了。她是一个庞克女子、一个爆发力十足的灵魂，一个狂野不羁的女孩。她是那种大约两岁左右，就能够以声音引起人们激赏的怪胎。她是那种没办法乖乖坐在课堂上，但是却充满了自信和决心，并且一个人跑到纽约和洛杉矶去磨练创作技巧的小镇女孩。

　　Avril 生来就是为了这些疯狂的事。在家里排行老二，却老是想成为注意力“焦点”的小孩，她注定要离开加拿大安大略省那个人口只有五千人的小镇纳帕尼（Napanee）。从卧室开始，不论何时何地她都可以唱，像是在教堂里唱圣歌，或是参加音乐节，然后在展览会和歌唱比赛上表演乡村音乐，直到她被Arista唱片所发崛。

　　Avril生气蓬勃的鲜明个性和纯真的魅力，以及甜美但却狂放不羁嗓音让人耳目一新。难得的是，她还是一个创作型的歌手。十六岁时，她搬到曼哈顿着手进行她的首张专辑《Let Go》。

　　Avril的音乐足以同时感动女孩与男孩，以及一些富于冒险精神的成人，而她也正尽力地朝此方向努力。她的唱腔活力四射，她的嗓音一如水晶般清澈，而她的歌词更是流露出纯粹的女性风格。
