Lavigne has a star tattooed on the inside of her left wrist that matches the style of the one used for her first album artwork. It was created at the same time as friend and musical associate Ben Moody's identical tattoo. In late 2004, she had a small pink heart-shaped tattoo featuring the letter 'D' applied to her right wrist—thought to be a reference to husband Deryck Whibley, with whom she has bought a house in Bel-Air, previously owned by another famous couple: Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler for $9.5 Million. The house has 8 bedrooms, 10.5 bathrooms, an office, elevator, a high-tech kitchen and a 10-car garage.[48]

Lavigne in the 2007 MuchMusic Video Awards. Lavigne has been doing a small tour to promote The Best Damn Thing, with tickets available only to members of her fan club.[38] She began the tour in Calgary, Alberta, and played for a crowd of around two hundred. This show was aired on television on April 2, 2007, on the CBC Network. The album had sold a total of 4.1 million copies worldwide in by December 2007.
The Best Damn Thing is het derde studioalbum van de Canadese zangeres Avril Lavigne. Het album kwam op 13 april 2007 uit in delen van Europa, en op 17 april in de Verenigde Staten en Canada. Er wordt van het album gezegd dat het wat minder zoet dan voorgaande albums is, en een wat stevigere beat heeft. Het is bovendien explicieter en bevat voor het eerst grof taalgebruik. Het bevat de platina status in de Verenigde Staten en is dubbelplatina wereldwijd volgens de United World Chart. Dit mede door het feit dat het ruim 4.1 miljoen keer over de toonbank is gegaan[1].
[A]ll of the spiky, buoyant energy that drives the album will come to life in the live show that Avril is planning for her tour later this year. She has assembled a new band, and is even bringing along two dancers ("I'm doing choreographed dancing for the first time ever," she grins. "It's going to be such a blast").

ALAVIGNESHAKIRA060807_001.jpg Does it hurt for pop star Avril Lavigne to, like, smile? Here she's out with the luminous Shakira at Les Deux and is somehow unable to put on a happy face. Have you seen her recent interviews while she's been promoting her latest album? It's like she's always annoyed with EVERYTHING. Shakira, on the other hand, continues to look radiant.
