Being said to be an unapproachable person, Avril Lavigne frankly gives a difficult reason: I’m a complete b*tch.
Lavigne dropped her seventh studio album Love Sux last week

They’re always like, ‘Oh, my God, you’re totally not what I was expecting.’ People think I’m, like, whatever. I was weird, tough and strong.”
She continued, “You [had to] stand up for yourself. You might come across as a bitch, but I think being a bitch is a really good thing. I’m totally a f—ing bitch, and that’s a good thing. It means that you’re not a doormat. You’re not a pushover, and you speak your mind.”
Avril Lavigne. @ALEXISJADEGROSSThat strong will is something Lavigne has had to embody her entire career in order to get where she is today.”I’m stubborn and strong-willed and strong-minded, and if I feel a certain way, I stick to it. I’m constantly fighting. I’ve been fighting since day one to write my own songs. I had to fight my whole career to write the type of music I wanted to write,” the singer-songwriter said.”Sometimes labels would give me pushback and didn’t understand my vision. I had to always fight, and fight on each album to keep going in the musical direction I wanted to go, even if they’re trying to sway me another way,” she said.
Lavigne also revealed the one thing she wants to do in music that she hasn’t before: “make a Christmas record.”
“Country music is hard. I listen to that s— in my truck, and the f—ing lyrics are as real as it gets. It’d be cool to write a country song or something. Or do a duet with someone. Then [I’d like to do a] more old-school, classic type of rock album,” she said.
To back that up, one of her main inspirations, she said, is a country music legend.
Speaking about who inspires her, the “Here’s to Never Growing Up” singer recalled the time she met Shania Twain.
“I met Shania Twain when I was 14. This is before I had a record deal or anything. I won a f—ing contest at a local radio station to sing onstage with her,” she recalled.
She added, “I got to sing onstage with her at this sold-out arena in Ottawa, in Canada. She gave me an opportunity to get up onstage as a young kid, and that definitely helped me in my career. And she’s someone I’ve stayed in touch with.”
Last week, Lavigne told PEOPLE that after a bad breakup in 2020, she swore off relationships until she met her current boyfriend Mod Sun.
I was like, ‘I need a break from men,'” the “Bite Me” singer said, adding with a laugh: “Then two days later that all went out the window!”
The Grammy-nominated singer met rocker Mod (real name: Derek Smith) during a songwriting session, sparks flew, and they began dating “immediately,” she said. “I just followed my heart.”
