Avril Lavigne is the cover girl for the Canadian issue of Elle magazine.  I know that she’s from Canada but really I don’t see her as Canadian anymore. She’s made quite a name for herself and probably lives in the States with her husband. In this issue she talks about her clothing line, her changing style and her new album. Here are the highlights:

On her fans following her style: “I knew my style really resonated with my fans when they dressed like me at my shows-that was pretty insane. And it was so cool to see them change with me. For the second record, I wore bondage pants and started putting black in my hair, and they started showing up looking like that too.”

On her clothing line Abbey Dawn: “I wanted this clothing line for so long, I wanted to do it right. I didn;t just want a Licensing deal; I wanted this to be my line, and I wanted to put everything I have into it. I’ve been planning it for years. It’s my own personal style-everything I love.”

On settling down: “I see the fast pace continuing for awhile. I don’t want to settle down. If I’m going to have kids, it’s not going to be until later. I have a lot I want to do, and I just want to have fun.”

On her new album reflecting her increasing maturity, but not leaving out her youthful pop-punk side: “I’m a young spirit-I like to jump around and have a lot of fun. I have a side that’s really feisty and a side that’s sensitive and mellow. I’ve always loved playing ballads, but I also enjoy rocking out, so I like to mix it up.”

I know, I am Team Vampire when it comes to the Twilight Saga but just stick with me here. Alex Meraz gets to be a really cool wolf and for that we have to give him a chance for.

In the new interview from Access Hollywood he talks about how cold Vancouver is. (Really, he is in the warm place of Canada right now, he should try being in the province over like me! COLD!) But he also says how lovable Canadians are…which he is 100% right on that one. It’s kinda neat to hear about how excited he is about the movie. It gets me even more excited to see the movie. November can’t come fast enough.

See the clip after the jump…

I really should start watching So You Think You Can Dance more often. A blogging friend of mine Cheaty Monkey talks about her cousin, Miles Faber, all the time. So I thought the great person I am…would just give Miles a shout out to tell him that Alberta loves him. Keep on rocking Miles, you are truly the best and deserve to win. I like his style…just look in this video.

One of my latest obsessions is the show…Big Love…since there really isn’t anything good to watch on tv I thought I might as well watch it. It just came to Canada about a month ago and I have watched every show. It being on Showcase means there can be nudity and swearing….something I’m not really used to watching. But it’s all good.

Big Love, is about a guy who has three wives…but they live in a normal high class neighborhood. I am quite surprised that I am not totally grossed out at this whole premise like I thought I would be. I know I have probably judged this way of life to harshly. Because we all know polygamy does happen.

I am also surprised by Bill Paxton and Chloe Sevigny’s performances. I am in total awe at how they make it seem so real. And Ginnifer Goodwin…reminds me so much of me. It’s also a great lesson in family. I have watched three hours of this show just this week. It is for sure my obsession right now.
