This summer, Lavigne appeared on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast and the two spoke about the long-running idea that Avril Lavigne is not, in fact, Avril Lavigne, but is merely a double for the singer, named Melissa Vandella, having been swapped in for Lavigne in 2011.
“It’s just funny to me,” the singer said. “On one end, everyone’s like, ‘You look the exact same, you haven’t aged a day’. But then other people are like, ‘There’s a conspiracy theory that I’m not me’.”
Sounding pretty confident that she was in fact her, Lavigne said that out of all the conspiracy theories to be landed with, she was okay with the one assigned to her.
“Honestly, it’s not that bad, it could be worse,” she joked. I feel like I got a good one.”
