Avril Lavigne Died in 2003, Was Replaced By Look-Alike, Hilarious Conspiracy Theory Claims
You may know Avril Lavigne as the Canadian Hot Topic aficionado who married the Nickelback guy and did a lot of unintentionally comedic sneering in the early 2000s.
But if you’re prone to believing social media conspiracy theories started by people with names like @givenchyass, then you’ll soon think of the self-proclaimed punk princess in a very different light …
… as a corpse!
Yes, thanks to a remarkably detailed tweet thread outlining the case for #DeadAvrilTruthers, the buzz on Twitter this week is that Avril committed suicide in 2003, and her death was covered up by greedy record company execs.
So who’s been belting out all those jams about Sk8r bois and rocking those ironic neckties?
Well, according to @givenchyass, a body double named Melissa Vandella has been masquerading as Avril for the past 14 years.
Yes, Ms. Ass claims that Lavigne hired Vandella early in her career to do appearances on her behalf and generally help her cope with the pressures of fame.
“She was so used to being able to live a normal life and now that she was famous, she couldn’t handle the paparazzi,” the conspiracy tweeter writes.
So, the story goes, Avril did what any skittish overnight celeb would do, and hired a doppelganger:
@givenchyass goes on to claim that Avril and Melissa “quickly became best friends” and one day while hanging out in the studio, Lavigne decided to teach Vandella how to “sing and sound like her.”
Shortly thereafter, Avril’s career took off like a shot, but at the height of her fame, she was struck by tragedy when her beloved grandfather passed away.
Dead Avril theorists believe that Lavigne was distraught that she hung herself, but those who stood to make the most money from her fame found a way to keep the radio-friendly pop-punk train rolling:
“She was at the peak of her career, so it is said that instead of letting the news of her dying go into the media, they used her look alike,” @givenchyass claims.
Hilariously, this theory has actually been around for several years, originating on the appropriately-titled Brazilian blog Avril Esta Morta.
In the past, however, no one has gone into greater detail than @givenchyass, and yes, at this point, we’re just enjoying using that name as often as possible.
Social became so rapt with the notion that Avril was replaced by a punk double that Lavigne’s name trended on Twitter over the weekend, and hundreds have made contributions to the #DeadAvril evidence pile.
Naturally, there have been some doubters, because, well, the whole story is bonkers and ridiculous, but G-Ass has already responded to the haters:
“I’m not sitting here being like ‘this is 100% facts’ it’s literally just a theory so calm down and miss me w that headass sh-t,” she tweeted.
Yeah! Miss her with that headass sh-t!
Do those words actually mean something?
Avril Lavigne is dead, people named @givenchyass are making international news, and we no longer understand Twitter slang!
Why ya gotta go and make things so complicated, world?
We need a nap.

Avril Lavigne to Mark Zuckerberg: Stop Bullying Nickelback!
If you’ve been anywhere in the vicinity of an Internet-capable device in the past 12 months, you know that 2016 was an absolute sh-tshow of a year.
In fact, we’ve reached the point where jokes about how bad 2016 was have made the list of things that sucked about 2016.
Fortunately, like an angel who fell to Earth and crash-landed in a Hot Topic, Avril Lavigne is here to save the day with unintentional hilarity by kicking off the most ridiculous and one-sided celebrity feud in recent memory:
The songstress and poet laureate of sk8r boi’s everywhere is married to Nickelback frontman Chad Kroger, a coupling that somehow didn’t bring about the End Times.
Short of both members of the Insane Clown Posse entering into a polygamous union with Meghan Trainor, it’s impossible to imagine a marriage that would be more horrifying to music fans, and yet, the former Mrs. Lavigne-Kroger seems oblivious to the fact that folks aren’t particularly fond of her ex-husband’s strained howls and “embarrassing Facebook memory”-caliber lyrics.
One would think that at this point she would just shrug off jokes about the fact that Chad’s name is listed in thesauruses as the antonym of “music,” but apparently punk rawk badittude never takes a day off.
Earlier this week, Facebook founder and Jesse Eisenberg impressionist Mark Zuckerberg posted a video in which he shows off his Morgan Freeman-voiced A.I. home assistant, Jarvis.
At one point in the video, the Zuck shows that even billionaires can’t resist the occasional bite of low-hanging fruit when he takes a jab at the band everyone, well … not loves to hate. Just hates, really.
When he asks Jarvis/Freeman to “play some good Nickelback songs,” the computer responds:
“I’m afraid I can’t do that,” Jarvis said. “There are no good Nickelback songs.”
“Good. That was actually a test,” Zuckerberg responds.
“How about just play some songs that our whole family likes.”
Kind of a dated reference, but Mark is a purveyor of #FakeNews, not a comedian.
(That was a joke, Zuck. Please don’t publish our private messages in retaliation.)
Anyway, you’d think that sort of thing would roll right off Avril’s back these days, but apparently not:
Lavigne posted the above note to Zuckerberg on Twitter (ironic use of social media burn!), presumably while snarling.
Avril tagged “@facebook” in the post, just so no one would think that she’s addressing Ruffalo or one of the other famous Marks with whom she’s not actually on first-name terms.
The strange part of this isn’t that Avril attempted to shame Zuckerberg for making a joke at the expense of a bunch of middle-aged straight, white millionaires by also tagging anti-bullying organizations.
No, what’s really weird is that Lavigne and Kroeger broke up last year, and yet she’s still fighting his social media fights for him.
We can’t figure it out!
Why’d ya have to go and make things so complicated, Avril?
