Lavigne was born in a small town in Ontario and grew up singing in church. At age 16 she caught the eye of record producers, who had plans to make her a pop star in the mold of fellow Canadian Shania Twain. Instead Lavigne teamed with songwriters and came upwith hit tunes such as "Sk8er Boi" and "Complicated," the latter of which wasfeatured on the show Dawson's Creek. Lavigne was only 17 when her debut album Let Go was released (2002); the album netted her five Grammy nominations. Her next album "Under My Skin", was released in 2004 and reached #1 on the Billboard album charts. In 2006 she announced that she had signed a contract with the powerhouse Ford Models agency, and told Harpers Bazaar magazine that she was hoping "to do those really beautiful ads with high-end products." Lavigne married Deryck Whibley, frontman for the band Sum 41 and a fellow Canadian, on 15 July 2006.
