There is a reddit discussion about Avril having done a Got Milk? ad during LG era and some people say it's the Mandela effect, a collective erroneous memory, while others insist that they had this as a poster on their wall. Can anyone confirm?! This really started to bother me because it's definitely not online anywhere and I know not every image (especially ads) end up online. |

I remember a pic of her with a milk bottle and a straw in it, standing in front of a chainlink fence I believe. Don't recall if it was for Got Milk

To my knowledge Avril has never done a Got Milk ad. There is the poster orange sky mentioned where Avril’s leaning against a fence drinking out of a bottle with a straw, but I always thought maybe it was just water. That was just a random photo shoot, nothing affiliated with Got Milk.
I don’t see Avril doing anything like that during LG era honestly. She wasn’t big into doing campaigns or anything outside of just music, and a milk campaign of all things? I doubt she even drank milk. Especially years later she became vegan. And Got Milk was meant to be a kid-friendly campaign, I just don’t see Avril being some shiny smiling celeb encouraging kids to drink their milk when her image was all about crashing the mall on your skateboard. She would have never done a campaign like that. Surely it would exist online somewhere, some archived site or anyone who had this poster would have a picture. These days, if it doesn’t exist online, it most likely never existed at all. You can find literally the most obscure shit online.

I think maybe I recall someone photoshopping got milk onto that picture at some point. It rings a bell.

I'm familiar with that photo but the people are clearly not thinking of that one but one where Avril was supposed to have dickies on, hands in pockets, a tie, wifebeater shirt... could be a mix-up of memories with some photoshopped version of this photo and another celebrity wearing somewhat similar clothes.

It's still one of my all time favorites! The pink shimmery lipstick is a great look.  And her hair looks so dark, sigh... |

After seeing a TikTok about celebrities and Got Milk? ads, I searched to see if Avril had one and I was surprised to see all of the Reddit/forum posts about the topic. So many people are swearing up and down that they remember an Avril ad. I'm surprised that she doesn't have one (or at least that it's not readily accessible) since it seems like every big celebrity had an ad back in the day.

It doesn’t surprise me she never did one actually. She didn’t do a lot of endorsements early on in her career and she was against dairy products back then anyway.

How could she be against dairy.. Cheese Curd is very much dairy and is one of the main ingredient on Poutine which has been like her favorite food ever.

As far back as UMS era she said she was against meat products. I don’t remember if she was also anti-dairy or if she didn’t become vegan until later. She would still eat pizza as like her “treat” so maybe she wasn’t totally anti-dairy but I can’t see her drinking milk back then. Singers especially don’t/shouldn’t drink milk, it creates phlegm.
