or this is a fake relationship some do anything for attention, and certain people can need a lot of attention I thought the exact same thing. This reeks of publicity stunt.

It doesn't make sense for a publicity stunt. What the hell is she trying to promote? (Pun not intended.)

I think it could be a publicity stunt more for him than her. I don't know why I feel that way.

I didn't even know they were dating. Chad looks like he could be her father.

Is she having some sort of mental breakdown? She just broke up with Brody who she dated not long after her first divorce and now she is engaged to someone who brags about banging hookers with Kid Rock. I just can't... I actually laughed out loud. My God, wtf this is such a weird situation. I just can't even handle this right now. It doesn't make sense for a publicity stunt. What the hell is she trying to promote? (Pun not intended.) She has an album she just finished and nobody cares or talks about her right now. or this is a fake relationship some do anything for attention, and certain people can need a lot of attention I thought the exact same thing. This reeks of publicity stunt. Yeah, it doesn't seem right to me either. Avril dated Brody for two years and never even really confirmed they were dating. Seems very out of character.

What!? You do not get engaged to a guy who brags about s**king his own d**k.
She has the WORST taste in men.

I guess her career is done now. :/ I hate comments like this. Just because an artist is no longer scoring huge hits and/or selling tons of albums doesn't mean that their career is over. Avril has made a big enough name for herself that she'll always have a career in music, even if she's never again as successful as she was in the past. As for her being engaged to whatshisface.... Am I happy about it? Not particularly. Do I think their relationship is going to ruin her professionally? No. I just hope she doesn't do what she did last year and ignore her career in favor of her boyfriend/fiancΓ©. If she wants to make any kind of comeback, she can't afford to half-ass it.

He's the lead singer of the Internet's most hated band and he's 10 years older than she is. Which is why I don't think it's a publicity stunt. This is only going to soil her name, not help it. If it were a publicity stunt, why not someone who is well-liked by many.

He definitely knocked her up. Isn't that the only reason people get married these days?

Avril is being a hypocrite and transparent for selling this story to a magazine, but it got her name all over the web today. Any publicity is good publicity.

I was mostly joking with my comment although I do think that judging by the reaction from anyone and everyone today, she might have a tougher time of it though the announcement has gotten her plenty of attention. On the flip side, I don't particular care for comments such as the conclusion of your post. If she's had enough hits in the past and she doesn't need them anymore, maybe she's decided that having a husband/boyfriend/etc is more important than establishing hits? As you said, having hits doesn't define her career. Just because she doesn't get hits also likely doesn't mean she's half assing it either.

At least there are some positive news about the couple. The are the 5th most poweful couple in US After a marriage to Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley ended in 2009, Avril Lavigne began a budding relationship with Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger, and the pairannounced their engagement in August 2012. Both artists released albums last year -- Lavigne issued her fourth full-length, "Goodbye Lullaby," in March 2011, while Kroeger's crew dropped "Here and Now" last fall -- and brought their cumulative sales to 34.3 million copies sold. Not a bad nest egg for the new couple! www.billboard.com/photogalleries/music-s-top-10-most-powerful-celebrity-couples-1007877752.story#eHIYL0RZ7uh1hf4v.99

All people care is the music...

I actually think this is closer to a publicity stunt than a real marriage. Avril has been pretty low profile with her relationships with Deryck & Brody. Other than countless of pictures being snapped by the paps & a few twitter messages to show her love, she did not talk about Brody openly. Even with her divorce with Deryck, nobody knows what exactly happened to them to date other than both of them. With this ugly Chad dude, she had a photoshoot & got her reps to send out confirmations that she's engaged... it's just not her at all. If it's a publicity stunt, positive or negative reactions, Chadril is ALL over the internet now. I sense a new single from Avril very soon. Nickelback... I have so many friends in real life who love them. I'm not too fond of the band but I don't get what's with the hate for them. Saying this engagement will hurt both of them is just stupid though. From Brody to Chad... eeeek what a downgrade, in terms of looks. Brody is so hot although he's a bum.

Well... I guess it is all media. If it is not media, she is pregnant. And if she is not pregnant and it isn't media... they are really in love!
Whatever... this is the best moment to release the single! Bring it on! Xtina, Kesha and Gaga are coming along

While I'm glad she's engaged, I had really hoped it would've been with Brody Jenner since they had dated for so long (versus dating a short time w/Chad Kroeger).
Alas, Goodbye Lullaby was such an great album, and I can't wait to hear her next one!
I wonder if she'll consider doing more films as well, since Over the Hedge and The Flock seem so long ago now.

if somebody wants to count the days they were together: studio time: 27.2. - 5.3. 17.3. - 31.3. 29.7. - 8.8. (engagement) (- 19.8. end of 3 weeks in the studio) (Nickelback tourdates en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_And_Now_Tour_(Nickelback_Tour) ) that are max 30 days in the studio, another week in France during the break of his tour and one day in Canada when Nickelback played a show there (I'm assuming Avril was not traveling with Chad on the tourbus) that are less than 40 days they spend together until they got engaged and most of that time they were working(kind of) with that Hodges guy, that's something totally different than going out on dates, having fun alone, getting to know each other etc this just smells so much like a bad publicity stunt, I cannot believe Avril is that stupid, after one failed marriage and that another disaster of a relationship with that dbag from the Hills she should know better

^ lol are you serious? Are you a fly in Avril's life? What do you know about her & Chad? Counting the days the way you did is very foolish. Disaster relationship with Brody? What do you know again? Avril & Deryck remain as good friends after their marriage didn't work out. A failed marriage may not be a bad thing, same thing for a relationship that didn't work out. You don't know anything & you don't have anything nice to say about Avril from the get go. Stop assuming.

read the silly silly HELLO! Canada interview
"Our relationship didnβt start until the toward the end of making the record" you know when the end of making this record was don't you
"Once I joined Avril in Paris [in the spring], I knew I was falling for her" but you do know math don't you?
now if you want to think that getting engaged like this is totally normal, I may ask : are you serious?
What nice things are there to say about this? would you not warn your friends if they'd rush things like this? or maybe it's good to see they need attention like this because they have so much trust in the quality of her album? pick your choice

So whats going on as far as a single goes? Billboard Brazil said the single should be out by October. She has her Abbey Dawn fashion show mid-september so I imagine she'll drop information during that event.
