I think the reason Avril used to tweet more is because she was sick in bed and couldn't do anything else. She's never been great a social media, but when she has nothing better to do she tweets a lot.

I feel like this is incorrect. I know you got it from wikipedia, but I think that's an error. I thought it was just filmed on a New York City soundstage, and most likely in LA. Kinda like How I Met Your Mother. No I'm pretty sure she was actually in New York to film this. I think she or the director mentions being in New York in one of the BTS videos. They filmed at a studio in LA. I think it was the Warner Brothers lot which has a bunch of different set ups including a New York set. In one of the behind the scenes videos Gabe says we have a shot in New York City? and the camera guy jokingly says yeah were flying out today, but they were already on set and Avril was just picking out her outfit.

Still, a person who isn't afraid to stick up to someone else is not less likely to get raped. For once you can't know how your body or brain reacts during rape until it happens, and it was always play and funny in the studio for avril. You never know how she would react to a serious situation. Just like when she was attacked and hit by thoose men outside the bar. By saying you let someone rape you or you say that someone is too strong or confident to accept rape you're at the same time making a comment saying that the victim could've prevented the rape by being more confident or more strong in the behavior. I don't like that way of thinking. we are getting off topic here (I assume since we aren't talking about Avrils non-existing tweet) but I just wanted to say that anyone can get raped or in that situation. Believe me. No matter how tough you are on the outside or whatever, you never know how you'll react until it happens to you I never said or implied anyone could prevent rape because frankly you can't. If someone is hell bent on taking advantage of a person then they will. I was just saying that Avril and Kesha are two different people who perhaps would react differently to this kind of situation. Anyway I believe Kesha and I think it's horrible what she has gone through. As for Avril not posting... she's never been very vocal on twitter so I doubt she'd saying anything on there. If an interviewer asks her about it maybe she'll reply.

If she pepper sprayed him and kicked him in the jewels just for fun, just imagine what she would have done to him if he tried to pull any crap with her. There is absolutely nothing about Avril that makes me think she would ever let anyone get away with any kind of unwanted sexual advance. I'm sure you didn't mean to but I think it's a bit cold to imply that sexual victims let's themself get raped or whatever. Just because a girl is having fun peppers praying a friend you never know how that person would act in a real actual rape. Not implying at all that avril was raped or whatever, but this comment doesn't prove or disprove anything to me I think what was meant by the comment was that Avril wouldn't likely be intimidated by Luke if he had drugged and raped her or tried to do anything, not that victims let themselves be raped. Avril would probably have done something about it right away. Not saying that Kesha was weak or anything like that by not coming forward sooner, Avril just seems like the type of person to stand up for herself and not think or care about the consequences, where as Kesha was afraid of what Luke could do to her career, life, and family. He is a person in a powerful position so I can understand why Kesha felt that way. It took some time for her to feel safe enough within herself to come forward. That takes a lot of guts.

Feeling depressed today. I'm desperate to go to graduate school at a good university but I've already received 2 rejections and I'm not hopeful about the other 2. I feel like my dreams are just slipping away from me and I can't do anything about it. Feeling sympathetic. Failing my university degree was singularly the most depressing event of my life to date. Horrible time in my life. All that work to get there too for nothing... I wish I'd left school at 16, it would have saved a lot of heartache struggling with higher education but hindsight is a wonderful thing. I'm sorry that happened to you. I can understand the feeling of wasting time for nothing.

I don't think it's really that messy, but more of a "beachy" style that she's going for with loose waves. Ha I was just going to say that. When I first saw her hair I thought it looked beachy lol.

She's probably just chilling at home with her family. Maybe she hasn't been feeling well or something. There could be a ton of other reasons why Avril's not tweeting than she just doesn't care. I wish she would post something too but oh well. It is what it is.

I was 13 when Complicated came out. I remember I was going through a style change at the time. I was really into Blink 182 and I wanted to dress like them but in girls clothes. Then I saw the Complicated video on MTV and I told my dad that's what I want to look like lol. I became a fan right then and got her album. I remember being a part of some Avril forum that was in competition with bandaids. We used to talk trash about each other all the time lol. I wish I could remember the name of that site. I had made some good friends there. I remember when UMS came out it was my last day of school before Summer vacation and I begged my family to take me to buy the album and the Return of the King dvd that came out on the same day. It was such a lovely day. UMS was when I started looking more into her performances and interviews and I started looking up her videos online. I still have a bunch of old interviews and things on my computer.
I didn't get to see her in concert until The Best Damn Tour. I went with the man who is now my husband. He bought me some merch from the mech stands which I clung onto throughout the show. Man when she came onstage I almost cried. It was such a surreal feeling this person I had followed for so many years was real and right in front of me! I hope I get to see her live again someday.

That guys tweets look like the definition of a troll. He's enjoying the attention fans give him when he criticizes Avril. He obviously thinks it's funny and that he's sooo above them. People should just ignore his dumb ass.

I thought Avril invested more of her own money into this... She might give directly to organizations instead of putting money into her charity. It might sound weird but I always thought her foundation, as well as other celebrity charities, was more about using her name to give awareness towards charities she's interested in. She could have done all that without a foundation, but I guess grouping it together under her name, when she was popular at least, would give these places more attention. I dunno.... If she has a charity or not I'm sure she'll still push causes and give to charities she's passionate about just like she did before her foundation came into being.

Hmmm this is interesting... I don't really know what to think about it. I'm sure there is a good reason behind it, something she can't disclose to us, but it just really.... sucks. As someone who's family works for a nonprofit I can say that it takes a lot of work to keep it going. If the grants dry up it's almost impossible to keep employees paid and dole out whatever services your offering. Yes Avril has millions of dollars, but that would only keep it afloat so long. I think some of you might be underestimating how much money it takes to run a nonprofit.I'd be interested to see if it comes back once she's in the spotlight again and more likely to get funds for it. Yes, let's spare a thought for the 1%. Heaven forbid they downsize their lifestyles before they let their beloved charities go. How do we even know how much money she has? Everyone is just assuming she's still loaded, but maybe not. It happens all the time millionaires over spend and then wham they go bankrupt. We don't really know why they paused the foundation. To just assume she'd rather be rich than help people is a little over the top.

Is it just me or is does her body look strange ? Specially in the 2nd picture. If that's so, could it be the medicaiton? I know that some of it can be really tough and can produce body deformation. It's not just this picture, I remember when I saw the "nipple" pics before Halloween there was something strange about her body, and I also noticed it at the SO opening ceremony. I can't really tell what it is..maybe medicaiton makes it look swollen? Not sure how rough her treatment is, or what the side effects of her medication are, though. But maybe it's just my impression. I kinda see what you mean. She looks like she has lost muscle mass, which would make sense because she was bed ridden for months.
