Avril Lavigne shoots in-depth documentary

AVRIL Lavigne is filming a tell-all documentary. The 38-year-old singer has joined forces with Disney+ to create a documentary exploring her journey in the music business.

A source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “Avril has been hard at work on this in-depth documentary for a while now and the makers have hundreds of hours of footage.

“She talks at length about her life, from how she got her break in music. Some of her showbiz pals will also be in the film talking about her. Avril was a teenager when she released her hit debut album so her career has been interesting. There’s a lot to talk about.”

Meanwhile, Lavigne previously admitted that she found teenage stardom to be “really awkward”.

The singer shot to fame during her teens, after releasing her debut album, Let Go, in 2002, but she admitted she wasn’t comfortable with the attention that came her way.

“I was so young and so shy. Being on camera for the first time and talking was really awkward for a teenager.

“I envied bands – because all five of the guys get to do interviews together and travel together and go on stage together. But it’s always just been me by myself for my whole career.”

Lavigne also acknowledged that her early hits, including Sk8er Boi and Complicated, will always define her career.

She said: “It’s quite an extraordinary thing that’s happened.

“I look back and f eel very humble. Honestly, all I really cared about as a little girl was just singing. I didn’t even know what Hollywood was, or a record deal, and it all came together.” |
