Ah! So This Is Why Fans Think Avril Lavigne Died 14 Years Ago
"Like I'm not saying Avril is dead but... Avril is dead."
Fans of Avril Lavigne are convinced that the Sk8er Boy singer passed away in 2003, and that she’s been impersonated by a look-alike singer called Melissa since then.
Of course, it’s just a conspiracy theory so none of their ‘evidence’ is supported by fact. But, here’s what they’ve suggested took place 14 years ago…
When Avril was thrust into the spotlight at the age of 18, she found the paparazzi difficult to deal with as she’d lived a predominantly quiet life in Ontario, Canada. Because of the stress, she hired a look-alike called Melissa, taught her to sing, and paid her to attend events in her place.
However, when Avril’s grandad passed away the following year, the singer couldn’t cope with her grief and allegedly took her own life. Conspiracy theorists on Twitter believe that her record label didn’t want to disappoint fans (or miss out on all the money Avril was making for them) and so asked Melissa to impersonate Avril full-time.
Differences in music style, birth marks, and handwriting have ‘proven’ that Avril is gone and Melissa is here to stay.
See the conspiracy thread from Twitter below…
up until this point she was so used to being able to live a normal life and now that she was famous, she couldn't handle the paparazzi

tragically, avril's grandfather passed away and it hurt her so much. he was her bestfriend and her biggest supporter

and the next part of this theory is that she actually succeeded. it is said avril hung herself in late 2003

then all of a sudden in 2007, "avril" (melissa) released the best damn thing and she had a new look and a new style (avril 2004, avril 2007) pic.twitter.com/CuWn8YcNke
