Life is good for Avril Lavigne

Avril Lavigne talks about love, music and, of course, pizza

The phone crackles as Avril Lavigne positively giggles with glee.
No, it's not about her recent engagement to Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley, nor about her winning artist of the year a couple months ago at the Junos, Canada's equivalent of the Grammys.
Instead, Lavigne, 20, has made a discovery while on tour in Italy: "Pizza is awesome over here!"
In fact, she reports, all the Italian food she's had there is better than it is in America. "A million times better."
The observation is a good reminder that, despite Lavigne's insistence that she's grown-up, she still has her moments.
Indeed, though, Lavigne has matured personally and professionally since hitting the pop/rock scene with Complicated in 2002.
There's the engagement, and then the house she bought last year in L.A. Avril also now has her own tour bus, in part because she wanted her own bathroom. (Guys tend to miss the toilet, she told MTV News.)
Beyond that, Lavigne put out a second album last year, Under My Skin, that goes a step beyond her Sk8er Boi fare.
Lavigne, who co-wrote every song on the album, is still focused on boys. She dumps a guy because he won't even open the door for her in He Wasn't and she gets over a broken heart on Forgotten. Lavigne rejects the guy who only wants sex in the radio single Don't Tell Me.
Lavigne also, though, sings about a girl who's lost and can't get back to the comfort she found yesterday in Nobody's Home, the album's third single.
"She wants to go home, but nobody's home. That's where she lies, broken inside," Lavigne sings in a song she co-wrote with a new collaborator and tattoo buddy, rock writer Ben Moody.
Lavigne does most of her collaborating on the album with Canadian singer/pianist Chantal Kreviazuk, co-writer of Lavigne's most personal song on the album, Slipped Away. It's about the death of Lavigne's grandfather, and it was tough to record.
"From the moment I went into the booth, I felt this presence. It was hard to sing," Lavigne said. "I'd leave and go to the bathroom and cry."
In concert, Lavigne had been using it, with no introduction, to close the show.
"But not right now," she says. "I haven't been feeling it."
What she has been feeling is pasta and caprese salad, bruschetta and pizza, all of which she had in one lunch.
"And I'm a healthy eater. I've always been a skinny minny. But I can't help myself."
