Sorry avril sucks it up

SLOBBER-MOUTHED singer Avril Lavigne has apologised for spitting at the paparazzi last week.
The singer stunned guests at Hollywood hangout Hyde when she assaulted snappers with spray of spit.
The saga started when Avril emerged from the hotspot with husband Deryck Whibley and leaped into her car for a snogging session.
However, when the photographers tried to capture their steamy embrace, Avril leapt out and spat on the nearest camera lens.
Bizarrely, the Canadian singer decided to repeat the sloppy feat the next night.
She said: "I'd like to sincerely apologise for my behaviour with the paparazzi.
"It's trying at best dealing with their insistent intrusions. I meant no offence to my fans, whose relationship I truly value. I have and will always go out of my way for my fans."
Despite the controversy, newly-wed Avril claims to be the happiest she’s ever been, and insists her new album reflects her joy.
She added: "It's really upbeat. I have a few love songs.
"Of course, I still have my boy-bashing songs, but they're very playful."

Avril could be jailed for spitting

SHAMED songstress Avril Lavigne could face six months in jail for hurling spit at photographers outside a Hollywood club.
Avril and her rock hubby Deryck Whibley spent two nights on the lash earlier this week and each time the Complicated singer shot saliva at waiting snappers as they left celeb hangout Hyde.
But now she could be fined and slung in jail for her uncouth actions.
According to PerezHilton.com the two photographers she covered in saliva are considering pressing charges, especially as it was all caught on video.
And Avril could be charged with battery.
According to American law, battery is any willful and unlawful act of force or touching against another person.
Wrongful touching doesn't need to inflict physical injuries and can be indirect such as throwing an object or spitting on someone.
Punishment is by a fine of up to £1000, up to six months in the county jail or both.
Avril’s gobby tirade began on Tuesday night when the singer spat at a snapper.
The following night Avril was at it again, this time shouting ‘bitch’ after dousing photographers in her spit.

Avril to wed boifriend
(The Sun)
SORRY, lads, it’s bad news – AVRIL LAVIGNE and rocker boyfriend DERYCK WHIBLEY are engaged.
The grungey teen rocker said yes when tattooed SUM 41 singer Derik got down on one knee and popped the question in California at the weekend.
The couple are said to be blissfully happy and Canadian Avril has been showing off her sparkling ring to mates.
A pal said: ''Avril has had a grin on her face ever since. She’s really excited.
''People tag her as this miserable teenager but she couldn’t be happier right now. She told her mum straight away and she has been totally buzzing.
''They haven’t set a date yet but they want to walk up the aisle next year.''
Avril started dating Deryck earlier this year and they are almost inseparable.
They have gone to great lengths to make sure their touring schedules allow as much time for each other as possible.
He had previously dated posh hotels heiress PARIS HILTON but decided to switch from upper crust to plain crusty.
Deryck, sometimes known as BIZZY D, fronts – and I know I’ll get slagged off here – one of the most dreadful bands ever. They scream, spit and flip the one-fingered salute to anyone nearby.
No wonder he and Avril, best known for her Sk8er Boi hit, get on as well as they do.
Avril’s arch rival BRITNEY SPEARS is getting hitched to KEVIN FEDERLINE at Christmas and one thing is guaranteed.
Avril’s wedding bash won’t be anything like as tacky as Britney’s.
SONIQUE is in trouble with cops after she allegedly got drunk and abusive on a flight to Los Angeles. The DJ was spoken to by officers on arrival in LA from London. Sonique’s manager had to apologise a year ago after she insulted a fellow passenger at Aberdeen airport.
