Latest Conspiracy Theory Claims Avril Lavigne Died A Decade Ago & Was Replaced By A Lookalike
The ‘Avril is dead’ conspiracy theory is back again, and this time it’s making serious waves on Social media.
Twitter user @givenchyass shared her almost-convincing theory (if you’re gullible enough) – which claims that Canadian Rock singer, Avril Lavigne died more than a decade ago and what we have now is a doppelganger. The tweets have since gone viral.
According to her, Avril committed suicide in 2003, after a long battle with depression which resulted from her grandfather’s death and her inability to continue dealing with fame. She was then replaced by lookalike, Melissa Vandella, who the singer had originally employed to play her on occasions where she just didn’t feel like dealing with the attention.

Either Twitter users actually believe this theory or they just find the story so amusing, they can’t resist sharing, as the tweets have been retweeted more than a 100k times and still counting.

now before some of you come at me with a "this isn't true" "how can y'all believe this" ITS A CONSPIRACY THEORY.

Pointing out changes in voice, style of music, looks, hair, stance, birthmarks, facial features and thousands other attributes, the determined conspiracy theorist did her best to convince other users that the Avril we see today is not the same one that thrilled us back in the early 2000s.

okay yes obviously you can change your genre of music but like .. just saying
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
so let me begin this by telling you a little about avril
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
she was born in ontario, canada in 1984 and her first album "let go" was released in 2002 when she was 18
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
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
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
so she decided to hire a look alike to walk around LA for her and pose for the paparazzi (avril on the left, look alike on the right) pic.twitter.com/wNSrDVh09i

her name is melissa vandella and they quickly became bestfriends
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
an unknown source says that melissa and avril were in the studio one day hanging out and they thought it would be funny to teach melissa
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
how to sing and sound like avril (this wasn't proven but it was tipped to an unknown source)
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
so moving on to 2003, melissa was still working for avril and avril was about to start working on her next album
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
tragically, avril's grandfather passed away and it hurt her so much. he was her bestfriend and her biggest supporter
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
she basically lost it. she was so distraught, crying on stage and in interviews. she would lock herself in her apartment and write for weeks
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
on end. finally she finished the songs for the next album and if you've heard that album.. you know what I mean when I say it's depressing
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
other sources even said she threatened to kill herself and tried to attempt several times because she felt she couldn't go on without him
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
and the next part of this theory is that she actually succeeded. it is said avril hung herself in late 2003
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
So instead of letting news of her death break, her record label instead continued to use her lookalike as they already had recordings of her second album, which according to the conspiracy theorists, successfully fooled the entire world.
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

here's a video I made comparing a song from the "real avril's" last album to girlfriend from her 2007 album pic.twitter.com/u7ymrtHuJl
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
okay I know girlfriends a bop but like .. it's a completely different style and use of vocals that she would do before
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
and a lot of avril's birthmarks she had before are gone. and she also has a same tattoo that melissa has ..
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
and once this theory was brought to her attention in an interview and she was very shaky and nervous in her interview, she was trying to
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
play it off as a joke and saying things like "well I'm here so that's not true" and all of that and then she performed after the interview
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
and she was stumbling on and off stage and messing up words.
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
like I'm not saying that avril is dead but
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
avril is dead
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
and melissa is weird
— la divinité féminine (@givenchyass) May 13, 2017
to properly end this thread, here's a song compilation I made of avril's best bops throughout the years pic.twitter.com/Bn9CyuaF1E

And she went on and on and on with more ‘convincing’ updates – provided by other believers of the outrageous theory – that were bound to undoubtedly convince the most jaded mind.

Yes Melissa, maybe it’s time to finally confess and let us ‘mourn’ our dear Avril once and for all.
