A match made in Canada! This weekend mall-punk singer Avril Lavigne tied the knot with Deryck Whibley of Sum 41. The bride wore Vera Wang and Chuck Taylors. (Not true.)

People says the couple‘s first dance was … wait for it … Goo Goo Dolls’ “Iris.”

Avril plays a possum in the movie Over The Hedge and a strung-out hottie in the new Butch Walker video “Bethamphetamine (Pretty Pretty).”

Congrats kids.

    Goo Goo Dolls? Yep, sums them both up. Happy honeymoon faux-punkettes.

  2. HxC!!

  3. ‘Iris’ is a great song, at least in my opinion, brings back memories of good times.

    Good on the two of them, most likely won’t last, but they do need to try and build up some attention again if they want to put something else out in the future.

    Snarking on Avril Lavigne is just too easy. I’ll just give it the eyeroll and move on.

    The comments on the older post Scott linked are hysterical.

    “Iris” is a great song. But playing Goo Goo Dolls for your first dance at your wedding is plain juvenile. That’s something a couple at an 8th grade dance would do.

  6. I remember hearing through someone that Deryck was gay, Didn’t he used to sleep with their manager or something?

  7. OMGILOVEAVRIL  |   Posted on Jul 16th, 2006

    Come on you guys, the Goo Goo Dolls are Avril’s favorite band. DUH. That’s why she’s so punk.

    i would love to insert my penis in april levine’s vagina

  9. Didn’t he used to date Paris Hilton.
    How do you go from a vapid socialite blonde to a hapless mall “punker.” At least Paris had $
    Then again they’re both Canadian. They’re all a bit funny up there, you know.

  10. Memememe  |   Posted on Jul 16th, 2006

    Vapid socialite blonde & hapless mall scare-quote “punker” are kinda the same thing, if you think about it.

    >>I remember hearing through someone that Deryck was gay, Didn’t he used to sleep with their manager or something?

    100% true

    You people are all losers.

    Avril is way more punk than all of you…
    f’real.

  13. Syd Barrett  |   Posted on Jul 16th, 2006

    That old post is effing hilarious! Anyway I hope they stay together forever, so Avril can pop out some babies and retire.

  14. jonathan  |   Posted on Jul 16th, 2006

    wtf is with the comments in the old post? rofl. What the heck was stereogum in 2004? Scary

  15. Seriously, Scott… I know you have it. What’s Avril’s email?

  16. Why the fuck post about this shit?

  17. Alex N  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    Oh boy, now they can spawn more faux-punkers that will SLOWLY TAKE OVER CANADA. Goddmanit, I’m going to hitch up my dogsled, grab my team of beavers, a 2-4 of beer, maybe slip on my touque and moccasins, and drive out into the snow screaming, “EEEHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” the entire time.

    Fuckinaye.

  18. peter  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    It’s clear that some of you lost your virginity to the Goo Goo Dolls, which is something that you’ll have to deal with later in life. Good Luck.

  19. Alex  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    bad haircut

  20. Brian  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    Goo Goo Dolls has to be the most Hardcore band I’ve heard since Bad Brains. I’ve never seen any other tough Hardcore bands that were good since.

    Avril is more PUNX RAWK than most of the gay Indie yuppies that hang out here.

  21. tjxm  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    You know how I know these two are gay?

    Because they choose a song that deeply influenced Coldplay as their first dance.

  22. disasterhead  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    hahahahah….

  23. how long before the honeymoon tape leaks?

  24. Kevin  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    Couldn’t they have gotten the Goo Goo Dolls to perform it live? They are probably available for weddings at this point.

  25. Vera Wang and Chuck Taylors. You kill me. Haha.

  26. I would do her  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    I bet she is tight, she is tiny.

  27. David  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    You’re a credit to humanity, son.

  28. I would do her  |   Posted on Jul 17th, 2006

    Thanks dad, is mom tight?

  29. Well good for them, hope they don’t end up having some 6-month fling. Which they more than likely will. But congrats to them anyway.

    Why not buy a wedding gift for the happy couple with your very own Avril Mastercard?

  31. Daria  |   Posted on Jul 26th, 2006

    Posergirl
    Against preppy clothes, and what an expencive dress we’re wearing. Yes, a real punk rock girl, would wear a pair of ripped jeans at her wedding

    AVRIL IS A BIG WANNABEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  32. Averilveeta  |   Posted on Jul 26th, 2006

    Some trying real hard to be punk would wear ripped jeans to her wedding just to be a stupid conformist bitch. Avril never claims to be punk, she knows she is pop with a smidge of punk.

    good choice of song, it kicks ass

  36. Marion Wilson  |   Posted on Aug 15th, 2006

    Congrats Derryck and Avril and have a great life together. Just one thing for Avril’s next album – what happened to the tomboy image from Let Go girlfriend?

  38. Who says you have to stick with classical music for your first dance? I have never heard Iris, but the one song I heard by the Goo Goo Dolls (here is gone) was great. It’s Avril and Derryck’s sort of thing. Classical is too traditional. But at my wedding, I’d rather have Green Day’s ‘Basketcase’ :)
    And who says faux punkers are going to take over the world? That’s the stupidest thing I ever heard, and Avril is Not faux (that means false in French).
    And of course the marriage will last – they have been together for about five years now. And Avril is religious so she probably isn’t into all that divorce and having affair stuff.
    And to the guy who said he wanted to have sex with Avril, what makes you think that she’d take a second glance at you, even if she was single, you sick pervert.

    I wish I’d been at their wedding! hey Avril, could you email me at marionbuckleywilson@yahoo.com?

    I am a massive fan of you.

    Good on ya Avril and Derryck and best wishes for a great life.

  39. I dont know wat every1 is on about, every1 loves Iris, except wen Ronan mcfuckface covered it, god now that ruined it 4 me.

  40. ashley ramogasse  |   Posted on Feb 27th, 2007

    What ever happened to her? Why doesn’t anyone ever see her any more? I want to know what happened to her. Does she even know that she still has fans and lots of them we all miss her she was a great artist? I mean no one that I know knows what happened to Avril Lavigne. She is like a roll model to me and I just want to know what happened to her, and why no one ever sees her any more.

    Avril is so cool. I loved her old look though. Why did she have to go and become preppy like every other person the the planet. Her hair was so cool before and now it’s BLONDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also her new song is so preppy. I still like her and everything, but why’d she have to change.
    :( Always your number one fan Britt

  42. Brittany Green  |   Posted on Apr 10th, 2007

    Hey Avril, sorry for dissing you. But I am 13 years old and you were my role model. Well you still are, but if you could please write to me at Kat_Way@wowway.com
