Avril Lavigne Has To Be The Only Blond On Stage

Avril Lavigne only hires brown-haired backing dancers. The 'I'm With You' singer insists on being the sole blond on stage when she performs live, and so orders all her dancers to dye their hair. She said: "Everyone was brown, except one of my favorite girls was blond so we were like, 'You have to have brown hair.' It wouldn't look right. "I wanted my girls to look really punk rock with like black hair and that's pretty standard for everyone, like Madonna and Mariah Carey. If they're blond you're not going to see another blond on stage." Meanwhile, Avril - who recently celebrated her second wedding anniversary with Sum 41 rocker Deryck Whibley - insists she has no plans to start a family just yet. The 23-year-old singer said: "I don't want to have kids for like 10 years. I still have a lot to do. I don't even know if I could handle a dog right now. I'm so not ready. Someday I'll be a mom but not until I'm in my 30s."

Avril Wants Her Fangs Filed Down

Avril Lavigne is set to have significant dental work because she is so self-conscious about her “fangs”. The ‘Girlfriend’ singer – who is married to Sum 41 guitarist Deryck Whibley – is so worried about her pointy molars she is determined to have them corrected. A source close to the singer told America’s Star magazine: “Avril hates her fangs. She is planning on having them filed down by a cosmetic dentist. It's just something she has always been insecure about, especially since everyone is staring at her mouth when she sings. “As soon as Avril finds some time to take off so it won't interfere with her singing, she's getting it done.” It was recently reported the YouTube video for Avril’s single ‘Girlfriend’ has earned the 23-year-old singer a staggering $1 million. Every time the video is viewed – so far over 100 million times – an advert is played and Avril receives a set fee.

Avril Lavigne gets Drunk and Naked

Avril Lavigne runs around naked when she is drunk. The Canadian singer, who is married to Sum 41 rocker Deryck Whibley, admits she enjoys stripping off after a few drinks. She said: "I've been known to run around naked when I'm drunk. "One time I was drinking whiskey, and I was so loud, someone called the police. "I have a side to me that's a bit delinquent and I get myself in trouble. I like to drink and party and speak my mind. But when it comes down to it, I'm a good person and I wouldn't deliberately hurt anyone." Although she may flash her flesh when intoxicated, the 22-year-old rocker isn't prepared to use her sexuality to sell records. The 'Girlfriend' singer told Sunday magazine: "Image is a personal choice. I'd rather be seen as me than for not wearing anything. When I first started out in music I was 17. I didn't want to wear the clothes that everyone wanted me to wear. I wore my tank top and Doc Martens boots and I'm glad I did because I was so different from everyone else."
