As usual, Avril Lavigne didn't look too happy to see the paparazzi when she was out doing some discount Christmas shopping with her husband Deryck in LA on Wednesday. No matter whether it's around candid photographers or on the red carpet, Avril always seems pouty about having her picture taken and granting interviews. Obviously it's annoying to be followed around, but we can't help but feel like she is in a perpetually foul mood. What do you think — is Avril just being a bad sport?

its impossible to smile 24/7..but then again what u expect..there is going to be cameras following u around when u celeb. but thats life i guess
1She seems like a downer...
2she never seems to smile
3i like that pink in her hair most people can not pull it off but she can!!
4I don't like her... I saw her in concert a few years ago when she wasn't a cop out. She was ok then.. I think she smiled once at the concert. But, I did get her guitar pick, and I got to meet her. She was ok. Not too happy at that moment.
5Repeat after me..celebrities are not dancing bears
They are not there to perform for the cameras that stalk them, put them in danger, and constantly harass them..
So get over it
6To be honest, I don't care what she does.
7I don’t know why they expect celebrities to walk around with smile frozen on their faces. They have the right to privacy just like everyone else. I don’t care if they are famous for something. Celebrities are people too. Not all of them call the paps and tell them where they will be going, so they can have their photo taken. Not all celebs want to be “out front” when they are off the studio set.
Photographers can get on my nerves just as much as some of these wanna be celebrities, that know dam* well their 15 minuts of fame is already up. But they continue to do foul / stupid things to get their photos taken anyway, just to extent their annoying time, for us, in the media.
8I think Avril is just an anal bi*ch, honestly.
9lol creep
10she's a teenage punk rocker. what else would you expect?
11oh well, as long as she doesnt show me her private parts, i'm fine with it!!
12I think I would get bored too, but who started first, hey? Who wanted to become famous? Should have thought twice about it, babe! Anyway, noone cares wether she's smiling all the time or not...
13"Repeat after me..celebrities are not dancing bears..."
Amen.
I don't think it is fair to slam someone cause they would like to go do some simple shopping without a harassing, scene provoking, assh*le following them with a camera.
It is one thing to be at a event and promoting your product. But to be a girl, just trying to do your own personal shopping, I would be in a constant state knowing there was some weird crazy guy stalking me with a friggin camera. Ugh.
14I don't like her so I don't really give a crap what she does but here goes: Yes I do believe that she's being a humongous b*tch, yes it definitely does come with the territory, and yes she knew that those a$$holes were a part of being famous. She needs to deal with it......
15i don't think that celebs should have to be "on" all the time. I stick up for Jessica Biel all the time.
Avril, on the other hand, shoulf be kissing the photogs feet. She sucks, plain & simple. She is a fake& she should be thankful that she famous at all, even if it is for being b*tchy
16I think that they knew what was going to happen once they became famous so you cannot complain after all, it´s true that they´re humans and all this stuff, but c´mon, fame and money and no disadvantages?, every job has issues, mine has too and I don´t earn a quarter of what she earns
17crappy music
18crappy attitude
spitting on paps is not the answer. she should be grateful for the attention since even her fans wont come to her shows to support her. she has to do a FREE concert in canada at get this... a best buy... you know your faux punk rock image is getting old when...
I love her dolled up image, but it must be seriously hard to keep that up all the time... and it makes you wonder if they only publish the grumpy photos to keep that image up. It's all one big story in the gossip mags.
19The paparazzi would annoy the crap out of me too. Maybe she doesn't want anyone to know anything about what she is like. I wouldn't blame her. Let people think she is a grump.
20I agree with Wiciltd.
Besides, she behaving within her personal rights - she doesn't have to smile if she doesn't feel like it. She's being authentic. I prefer this over someone smiling and being fake.
21I don't like her. She has a nasty attitude and always looks dirty. Yuck!
22She seems to really hate them with a passion (even more than most celebs). When she does acknowledge them, it's really negative and mean.... like when she spit on that one photog and called him a b*tch. She most likely figured out to just ignore them all together... which is better.
23Although it must be annoying, she knew what she was getting into; camera's are going to follow you. Be a good sport, offer them a chance to tke your photo if they can give you some time of peace that day; make them a deal than they won't be so hungry for a pic.
24She should be glad that people even want to take her pictures.She's not a crappy singer and I'm surprised she is still famous enough for people to even care about what she does.
25I don't even know who this chick is, so I gave my basic opinion on celebs being rushed by paps. Evidentially this girl is NOT liked by a lot of you out there. And spitting on the paps you say *coulty45*, now what in the world was that all about?
But that was still funny what you said *pinkberry*...."oh well, as long as she doesnt show me her private parts, i'm fine with it!!"
26She should be lucky the paparazzi waste their time following her because shes not a big star and she doesnt sell magazines.
27Maybe she's shy?!
28She seems like one of those perpetually unhappy people. Or maybe she's just that uncomfortable w/ herself/ being out in public. Who knows, maybe she shouls seek some solitude and find out, giving us a break from her as well! hehe
29Yeah she is always looking and acting like a b*tch.
30I don't walk around with a big smile all the time so I don't expect her to either...
That's just her normal face...
31maybe she's pregnant who walks around with gift boxes over their tummy???
32Lately, it's probably 'cause of how her tickets aren't sold out or something like that.
33she isnt even famous enough to hate the paps the way she does, she should be thankful for any kind of attention she gets
34Only when she's being rude.
35She's so arrogant that it makes me sick
! She wants all of the attention when it's at her
disposal and she brags about herself so often that it's pretty suprising that she doesn't like the paps~!
Get a better attitude Avril and quit stealing other people's songs.
36I voted 'no'. It'd be a sh*t to have to walk around doing your daily chores like shopping with a smile plastered on your face. People would think you were a nutter if you did that.
But to an extent, she does always seem to be in a grumpy mood. Maybe if she gave them a couple of photos of her smiling, they'd leave her alone for a bit. That'd take care of the smiling all the time thing.
Gosh I'm good. I reckon I could just about solve heaps of celebrity problems. They should call me. And then pay me lots.
37Wiciltd, I agree with you, but I'm forming my opinion purely based on her demeanor as an artist & how she portrays herself in interviews, not just from this one picture (I'm sure people aren't just judging her off of this one set of photos). She's never happy and doesn't seem grateful for anything. I'm not sure if ANYONE is a fan of Avril's attitude.
38aren't her 15 minutes about up? when she's not followed in a couple of years she'll get to look back and see how dreadful it was, lol.
39its one thing when you act annoyed at papz taking your picture when you're out running errands....but she has that same pissy pouty attitude when she's singing as well.
there are things that just come with the career she's chosen for herself. you don't have to be fakey smiley when you're shopping, but when you're performing or doing an interview for your chosen profession, crack a smile and act like you actually enjoy your craft.
now the real question...is she taking credit for things she didn't create? i think so!
40i don't like her, she and her music annoy me but , it must be pretty tiring to have to put on a smile every time they want to take your pic!
41I say good for her!
I rather have her look b*tchy all the time hat spears wh0refest!
42avril is a wretched one
43i want that bag
44just because she is a popstar and the fact that there are cameras around her as soon as she leaves the house doesn't mean she has to smile for the camera, she is just trying to live her life, yeah it comes with the territory but it doesn't mean she has to be happy about it.
45I don't agree with this whole BS of "They're famous they should put up with it"
No one deserves to have their privacy invaded, their lives spun in a way that can make them look like an angel or a demon.. These are just PHOTOS not VIDEO .. You have no idea what pictures they got of her.. They are spinning it the best way possible to get the best reaction possible..to make the most $$$$ ... They're not going to post photos of Happy Avril with her Loving Husband.. No.. They're going to post what everyone else wants to see
The Pap need to be bombed.. Shot.. Beat up.. Regularly.. No one deserves complete lack of respect for themselves and their well being..
I know if I was famous I'd be in jail for breaking their equipment and beating the crap out of them on a regular basis..
46hey! i was a teenage punk rocker (and still am) and I smiled at people!
avril is far from punk imho, she never was and she never will be...
this is a girl who said "who are the sex pistols?"
sigh...
I do feel like noone should have to be constantly smiling cause they're famous. it would suck to have ever move documented, but people who want to be famous should know it comes with the territory.
Tough call!!
47Maybe she hates her name, she should be grateful people want to take pictures of her and she has a job that she loves doing and gets paid great for doing it, everything comes with a price, but, smiling is free. She should enjoy life and not worry about who's taking pictures of her, those photogapher's probably hate their job and hate taking picture's of people who are nasty to them, who wants to be spit on and called names for doing their job.
48THANK YOU wiciltd. I totally agree!
49I agree that artists shouldn't have their private life invaded like this, but the thing with Avril is that she looks like this all the time. She is too conceited for someone who got famous with an album she didn't even write, at the same claiming she was better than the other pop artists at the time and she was real artist. Her last album is proof that she's not a "punk rocker" but yet some puppet who'll do whatever sells more records even if it's utter crap. All this to say that she always looks bored, she always looks like she's doing everyone a favor by letting them be in her presence, be it on tv, in concert, or in these candids. I think she believes she's the best thing since bread came sliced and she comes off as arrogant, which is ok if you're really THAT good, but she really isn't. Every time I see her annoyed expression I feel like telling her "get over yourself!".
