In a recent radio interview, Avril Lavigne has been criticizing bloggers and the British press for their obsession with celebrity and their willingness to publish incorrect stories and gossip.
In an eloquent rant, the star said: "Today, you know, we live in a world where like people are extremely negative. The Internet is very negative. There's a lot of websites and stuff, not naming any in particular. But, I don't know. People are like obsessed with celebrities and they're obsessed with them failing and doing bad.
"Everything you read is like false. Sometimes like people have quotes and say things that I didn't even say, and that's what they like to do in the UK. They make up artificial quotes and they put them in the magazines. Like Q magazine had all these false quotes that I didn't put. And the press over here made a big deal about it. A lot of it just ends up on the Internet. People are looking to attack. It's really unfortunate."
Wow. That girl should, like, totally be a politician or something, like, yeah... amazing!
