Avril Lavigne Makes Her TikTok Debut - With a Little Help from 'Sk8er Boi' Tony Hawk
Glenn Garner 31 mins ago

TIKTOK © Provided by People TIKTOKAvril Lavigne is bringing some early aughts nostalgia to our feeds with her TikTok debut. The 8-time Grammy Award nominee, 36, enlisted fellow millennial preteen icon Tony Hawk to help recreate her 2002 hit single "Sk8er Boi" for the short clip. "He was a…" Lavigne wrote in the caption, referencing the earworm's memorable lyrics. She lip-synced the song atop a halfpipe with the ocean in the background as she donned her signature look from the song's era: a sleeveless black t-shirt with matching shorts and a striped necktie. As the chorus played, the video then cut to Hawk, 53, wearing the same tie as he did a few quick tricks on his board.

"I just posted my first @tiktok with the legendary @tonyhawk… go check it out!" she captioned the images. https://www.instagram.com/p/CQZWi6cBaRx Lavigne landed a Grammy nomination for best female rock vocal performance with the single, which appeared on her debut album Let Go. It was also her second consecutive top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 after she dropped her debut single "Complicated" earlier that year. She recently showed off her own "sk8ing" skills on the same halfpipe in a video she posted last month to Instagram. Lavigne was slowly picking up momentum in the clip as her boyfriend Mod Sun could be heard in the background cheering her on and telling her to be careful, right before she falls off her board. "Hope this makes you laugh as hard as it's made my friends and I laugh all week," Lavigne wrote in the caption. "That's what I get for sk8ing in my slippers and dress." Lavigne was first romantically linked to Mod Sun, 34, in February after they collaborated on his song "Flames" in January. She told PEOPLE that they "had an immediate connection from the first day in the studio." "He's an incredible artist and producer," the Canadian singer added. "This is the first of many. Proud of what we made with 'Flames.'"

Avril Lavigne recruits the perfect 'Sk8r Boi' for her first-ever TikTok
By Jolie Lash Mon, June 21, 2021 Pop-punk princess Avril Lavigne has made her debut on TikTok. The Canadian music star posted her very first video on the social media platform Monday, sporting a very retro look - a black T-shirt and a striped tie, kind of like this - as she lip-syncs along to her 2002 classic "Sk8er Boi" while sitting on top of a ramp. When the song gets to the chorus, "He was a skater boy/She said, 'See ya later, boy,'" the camera zooms in on the tie, before zooming out and revealing the ultimate sk8er boi, Tony Hawk. The pro skater performs a a few tricks on the video on one of his own boards, which is perfectly pink on the underside. Lavigne's TikTok debut arrived on the perfect day: Monday is Go Skateboarding Day, and she put in a plug on her Instagram to watch Hawk on his ramp via The Skate Park Project's (formerly The Tony Hawk Foundation) TikTok page. Last month, the rocker shared a little video of her own boarding sesh. It ended in a little tumble, but she bravely shared the footage with fans on Instagram because, even in her 30s, she's still punk rock. "Hope this makes you laugh as hard as it's made my friends and I laugh all week," she wrote. "That's what I get for sk8ing in my slippers and dress." Here's to never growing up.

toofab Avril Lavigne Posts First TikTok Video with Ultimate Sk8er Boi
Celebrity By TooFab Staff | 6/21/2021 2:11 PM PT
GettyCould this cameo be any more obvious?Avril Lavigne has finally joined TikTok and is already off to a great start. Reviving her red and blue tie from the 2002 music video for "Sk8er Boi," the now 36-year-old pop-punk princess lip-syncs along to the classic track in what appears to be the backyard of her Malibu ocean-view home, which she purchased in 2020.
Most of the comments for the video were about how amazing Lavigne looks, with fans writing, "So ... we all just non-aging vampires now?!", "HOW DO YOU LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME" and "can we get the beauty secrets? You didn't age." Unfortunately, she didn't look quite as good when she tried to skateboard herself on the ramp in a video she posted earlier this year.

https://www.instagram.com/p/COdrnTghqLD Lavigne's first TikTok comes after she and Willow Smith were spotted filming an something together just last week. While we have to wait a little bit longer to hear their collaboration, Willow confirmed Lavigne will appear on her upcoming album, which has embraced the pop-punk sound that's really started to make a comeback this year. "I'm so excited that I'm going to be having a song on the album with Avril Lavigne. She is so iconic. From [ages] 13 to 16, she was my idol," Willow recently told V Magazine. "It's really nice to be able to have a quintessential pop-punk record with the pop-punk queen." Willow's album, featuring Lavigne, is due out this summer.

Avril Lavigne partners with real-life 'Sk8er boi' Tony Hawk in TikTok debut
By Lianne Kolirin, CNN 1 day ago | Avril Lavigne has joined forces with a true "Sk8er Boi" legend to mark her TikTok debut.
Tony Hawk, Avril Lavigne are posing for a picture: Sk8er Boi Tony Hawk appears in Avril Lavigne's first TikTok, featuring her 2002 hit © From Avril Lavigne/Instagram Sk8er Boi Tony Hawk appears in Avril Lavigne's first TikTok, featuring her 2002 hitIn a video posted to her social media account Monday, the Canadian songstress is lip-syncing her way through the 2002 hit. Set against a sunny beach backdrop, Lavigne is dressed in black shorts and a T-shirt, complete with a red and blue striped tie. As the song gets to the chorus, "He was a skater boy/She said, 'See ya later, boy,'" the camera shifts from Lavigne to professional skateboarder Tony Hawk -- now wearing the tie -- as he performs stunts on a beachfront ramp. Though now in his fifties, Hawk is the ultimate skater boy, having taken up the sport when he was 9 years old after his brother gave him his first board -- and turning professional just five years later. Hawk dominated skateboarding competitions in the 1980s and 90s. He was named top vert -- short for vertical -- skater every year from 1984 to 1996. He won 73 titles and has invented dozens of skateboarding moves. Lavigne's TikTok video was timed to coincide with Go Skateboarding Day, an annual celebration of the sport which first began in California in 2004. Hawk also released a short clip to his Instagram page of Lavigne having a go at skating. The accompanying caption read: "Breaking news: Sk8er Boi singer learns skating move from old Sk8ter Man." In the video, the talented singer tentatively leaps off the ramp only to come off the board and fall on her hands and knees. But that does not deter her from getting straight back on and having another, moderately more successful, attempt. Lavigne commented on the post: "Thanks for teaching me to drop in Sk8er Man... legend." This was not the musician's first public outing on a board. Last month, she posted a video on Instagram of herself falling off a skateboard -- showing the sport is not quite as easy as Hawk makes it look. "Hope this makes you laugh as hard as it's made my friends and I laugh all week," she wrote in the accompanying caption. "That's what I get for sk8ing in my slippers and dress."

Avril Lavigne’s TikTok Debut Is Straight Out Of 2002

Avril Lavigne’s first-ever TikTok is a video, yes, but it’s also a wormhole in the space-time continuum that’s already let millions of viewers (and counting) travel back to 2002. On Monday, Lavigne announced that she’d joined the unofficial choice app of Gen Z, and her first post — a nostalgic “Sk8er Boi” lip-synch, featuring some stunts and moves from famed, real-life sk8er boi Tony Hawk — proves several things. One, this collaboration should have happened sooner; two, Lavigne is the rare celebrity who really understands TikTok; and three, some people can evidently still pull off the loosely-fitted tie and black eyeliner look in 2021.
In the video, Lavigne dons one of her signature striped ties, an all-black outfit, and makeup straight out of her “Complicated” music video. She dances along to the first verse of “Sk8er Boi” before the camera pans to Hawk, now wearing the same tie. (And, sadly, no eyeliner.) As the chorus plays, Hawk shows off several tricks on a skateboarding ramp, and millions of geriatric millennials are screaming. To date, the TikTok has racked up 14.3 million views and over 3 million likes. The video also prompted Lavigne’s name to trend across social media platforms. Lavigne’s old and new fans were very, very into the crossover. “This is absolutely iconic. I can feel my childhood self freaking out and searching for her eyeliner,” one person wrote on TikTok. Another called the video “the collab we all wanted in middle school.” As TikTok’s official account wrote, “name a more iconic duo…. I’ll skate.”

As a skater and philanthropist who’s helped build skate parks in underserved communities, Hawk has been one of the event’s most public-facing figures for years. Lavigne, meanwhile, isn’t much of a skater, contrary to popular belief: In a behind-the-scenes video on Hawk’s Instagram, she’s seen wiping out while Hawk attempts to teach her some moves.
Lavigne confirmed that her seventh studio album will come out this summer, and will reportedly include collaborations with Machine Gun Kelly and Willow Smith. It might be too much to ask for a new version of “Sk8er Boi” with a full-length, Hawk-studded music video, but hey, TikTok got Aly & AJ to do it, right?

Avril Lavigne rewears her iconic 'Sk8er Boi' aesthetic for TikTok debut
Natasha Harding Tue., June 22, 2021, 6:52 a.m.·2 min read To announce her TikTok debut, Avril Lavinge just served a seriously epic throwback and it's some solid Tuesday pick me up content. Rather than doing a standard 'hey, I'm on TikTok' type of message, Avril went out with a 2021 rendition of her hit bop 'Sk8er Boi' joining forces with none other than Tony Hawk (AKA the ultimate skater boy). In the clip, captioned "He was a… @tonyhawk #GoSkateboarding #sk8rboi", Avril wears her signature noughties look: a tank top with baggy, 3/4 trousers, matching trainers and, of course, the iconic loose tie draped around her neck. The best part? Midway through the vid, it cuts to Tony on the halfpipe wearing the EXACT SAME TIE. And, like that, I'm instantly transported to 2002 - what a time to be alive. While there's only one post on Avril's TikTok account at the moment, this is an incredibly strong start. Watch the clip here:
Avril then shared the good news on Instagram with snaps of her and Tony having a blast on the skate ramp with the caption: "I just posted my first @tiktok with the legendary @tonyhawk… go check it out!" https://www.instagram.com/p/CQZWi6cBaRx Aaaand, to refresh your memory, here's Avril in 2002 wearing the outfit you may or may not have had in your locker back in the day (y'know, next to Justin Timberlake's 'Justified' pics):
Photo credit: Getty ImagesNoughties fashion trends are making a very real comeback this season (crop tops, wide-leg jeans, baguette bags - you name it) so, who knows, maybe the 'tie as a necklace' look could also return? I mean, stranger things have happened. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go and replay Avril's best bops on repeat all afternoon: Complicated, When You're Gone, My Happy Ending and, of course, Sk8er Boi.

I just get pissed off with Avril constantly refering to her mini ramp as a mini pipe. As a skateboarder I know a mini ramp is a small half pipe and a vert ramp is called a half pipe. Shortened to mini or vert with midi in-between and it is also called a midi ramp not a midi pipe.

Don't you think it's kind of strange Avril lives in LA California yet she doesn't have a suntan at all? I spent maybe 10 days in LA when I was younger and spent most of them indoors recovering from sun burn from one day spent on the beach on Sunset Blvd.

She probably uses sunscreen and stays out of the sun for the most part.
