Canadian pop star Avril Lavigne is set to put her music career on hold after landing her first lead role in a movie. The singer has toyed with acting in the past, taking on minor roles in last year’s ‘The Flock’ and 2006 film ‘Fast Food Nation’. She also provided the voice for a character in 2006 animated movie ‘Over The Hedge’.
Now Lavigne is stepping up her career as a serious thespian with her first starring role - and she insists it will be totally different to her previous work. She tells British publication The London Paper: “I’ve got a film role coming up - something you wouldn’t expect from me, something deep and dark.”
Do you think she means she’s “toyed with acting… like a mature human being”? Kind of like she’s “toyed” with being humble and gracious to her fans?
And actually, AvLav, this is exactly what I expect, given your current, ass-ward career trajectory. Albums not selling, accused of plagiarism, fan base aging (and realizing you secretly HATE them all), husband cowering from all your massive [alleged] coke rages, you release a line of slut uniforms cheap hoodies, cancel tour dates when they don’t sell enough, and now since you have nothing left to destroy, you are “stepping up your career as a SERIOUS THESPIAN”? Oh, this should be fun. Probability of FAIL? 100%.
Warm up the Schadenfreude machine - I think we’ll have lots more mocking to do in the coming months! (Via here)
