We can’t believe it either, but it’s been 15 years since Avril Lavigne released her first album Let Go including the classics “Sk8ter Boi”, “Complicated” and “I’m With You”. To celebrate one of our favourite artists of all time, we scrolled through the archives and found some pictures of Avril that are almost too good to be true…

1. When she hung out with the Kardashians / Jenners…

Kylie Jenner was actually a model before Kendall, and regularly walked the runway for Avril’s clothing line “Abbey Dawn”. Naturally the whole family came down to watch and blessed us with this unlikely group shot.

2. When she wore this…

We were probably so jealous of this outfit in 2003.

3. And this…

Camo trousers, a guitar covered in checks and skulls and devil horns? Just a normal stage outfit for Avril in 2005.

4. When she went to a Chanel show…

In 2006, Avril swapped Converse for Chanel heels and sat front row at the label’s SS06 Haute Couture show.

5. When Justin Timberlake was her biggest fan…

After Justin Timberlake confessed that Avril was his new favourite artist in a hilarious interview on MTV, the pair posed for a picture at a Teen People Magazine party in 2002.
