Badinagoodway reported that singer Avril Lavigne made her first appearance of TRL. I didn’t even know that cultural embarrassment of a show was still on. Nevertheless, I guess Avril is alright as far as those pop tart broads go. Here’s what she thinks of the dated britney:

“I mean, the way she dresses — would you walk around the street in a fuckin’ bra? I’m not trying to dis anyone, but with me, the clothes I wear onstage are the clothes I would wear to school or go shopping. I’m not gonna go up onstage and dress different. Britney Spears goes up onstage and dresses like a showgirl. She’s not being herself up there because she’s dancing like a ho. Is she ho? She says she’s a virgin. Y’know, it’s just not clicking. She’s doing one thing and saying another thing, y’know? It’s definitely not what I’m going to do.” – Avril on Britney.

Now if we could just get rid of the redneck hip hop bands and replace
them with something with a little bit of depth and respectability like Boston or Lynyrd Skynyrd. Speaking of which, the 30 year anniversary of watergate was a couple days ago. Remember the classic Skynyrd lyrics?

In Birmingham they love the Gov’nor Boo hoo hoo !
Now we all did what we could do.
Now Watergate does not bother me.
Does your conscience bother you? (tell the truth)

Anyway back to Avril, her music is not good. It’s like a throwback to 1995(a song about skaters for christ’s sake) which is only a mild improvement over the era that followed. At least she’s cute and French, and her name “AVRil” is reminiscent of the acronym for the South Vietnamese Armed Forces, “ARVN” (sort of).
