If Avril Lavigne Ran a Tabloid ...

CONFIDENT, DRY Avril
While she may have tanked in Buffalo, Avril Lavigne's Atlantic City jaunt was a sold-out, faux-emo-tween paradise. Sparkly-hooded girls overtook the shiny shirted Bon Jovi fans on the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa floor. Sk8tr bois took notice.

At the post-concert event, which featured more dancing rejects than Step It Up, Lavigne's entire crew and her hubby Derek Whitleby (whose shortness of stature is rivaled only by his band's shortness of fame) headed to mur.mur for their after party where the pop punk was peppered with questions about her recent "pregnancy" on Ashton Kutcher's new celebrity-fake out series, Pop Fiction.

"Man, everyone keeps asking me about this! Was it really that big of a deal?" she said. She's probably right. "Ashton approached me and I thought it was a great idea, mostly because I'm often attacked in the media and I don't know why,"she told the reporters at the red carpet. "I have so many positive things in my life right now that I'm just, like, 'Really? Whhhhyy?' [when a negative story appears]." Again, good question.

Okay, Avz, how would you run a tabloid? "Oh my God! I would make it completely positive. I would check every story and make sure it was only full of nice things." And then People would sue you for copyright infringement.
