As I mentioned in the other thread, one of her most iconic moments is when she played a prank on the paparazzi/media and led them to believe she was pregnant simply because she walked around in a fake belly and was seen shopping for baby clothes. They wanted to show how the media can run with a headline even though Avril never said a word about being pregnant and it shows how fake most of what the media writes really is.
Similar to that, I remember she and Chad basically tricked the paparazzi when they got married by making them think the rehearsal dinner or whatever it was was the actual wedding photos. Avril was seen wearing a white dress and they assumed it was the wedding, but it wasn't. It was basically a decoy they set up to make the paparazzi get their photos and then leave them alone for the actual wedding.

Ok so, first of all thank you for this thread! We needed some positivity environment to kinda keep the balance.
I know this is too obvious but the time avril played sk8er boi with a bunch of drummers on the brits was fucking iconic!

Oh wow! There are so many iconic moments.. and I think I will post more in the following days. Right now I think of when Karl Lagerfeld called her for a Chanel Photoshoot and runway show. Karl died exactly today, 2 years ago.

But yeah, I posted it as I think it was anyways a huge icon that has passed away and someway made history. The photoshoot was very cool also!

That reminds me of how Abbey Dawn was featured as part of New York's Fashion Week in three different years I believe, which is a huge deal, especially for just a celebrity clothing line. And she even had Kylie Jenner as one of her models long before Kylie was as famous as she is now.
Another big deal for Avril is that she got to perform on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, which is a longstanding tradition in America that's been around for so many years and to get to perform on it is a big deal/honor.

Ooh another iconic moment, meeting Prince Charles at the Alice in Wonderland premiere! She has always been fascinated by the royal family I think, so that was probably a huge deal for her. I don't think she met the Queen though. I remember her saying she was surprised that Prince Charles sort of knew who she was (he referred to her as the "singer who did the song for the film") and she didn't expect him to know who she was. I've always loved her humility that she's never expected people to know who she is, even though she's been in the music industry for 20 years and one of the most known stars out there.

Maybe not iconic in the conventional sense, but this tweet is legendary to me:

Whenever she wears black extensions, we don't know why but she looks great.

Oh and what about that time GF became THE FIRST video to hit 100M views on Youtube (??). She was the gangnam style for the emo kids LOL. Iconic video; iconic song; iconic achievements; iconic era; iconic woman overall.

Iconic video; iconic song; iconic achievements; iconic era; iconic woman overall. Oh man, what a time. I remember putting the damn video on a loop to help it achieve the 100M mark.
