Avril Lavigne Laughs Off Doppelganger Conspiracy Theory: ‘It Could Be Worse’

‘I don’t think it’s negative or anything creepy,’ Avril said the ongoing body double theory in a new interview.

While appearing on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, the 39-year-old “Girlfriend” hitmaker addressed the ongoing rumor while speaking with host Alex Cooper on Wednesday, May 15. The widely known conspiracy theory about Avril alleges that she died in 2003 and was replaced by a body double named Melissa Vandella. During a previous interview with Entertainment Weekly, the “Complicated” artist called the gossip a “dumb internet rumor.” She also noted that she was shocked some people actually believed it.
