Canadian artist Avril Lavigne made history by selling 40 million records worldwide, releasing the first video clip to reach 100 million views on YouTube, popularizing colored highlights and dirty Converse and turning hits like “Sk8er Boi” and “What the Hell” into generational anthems. In short: she has become a transcendental icon of our century.
