The Hollywood Reporter, released her 10 Global Pop Icons. One of them is rock singer from Canada, Avril Lavigne.
Technology has made it easier for Toronto-born Lavigne, 29, to reach her
fans, but there's nothing like having boots on the ground. "I still
like to be old-school and go city to city," she says.
For her self-titled fifth album, released in November by Epic, Lavigne
combined both, promoting it in person and streaming a concert across the
globe. She starts an Asian tour Jan. 31 in Japan, which embraced the
singer early on.
During her first trip there after the release of 2004's "Under My Skin,"
the label pulled her aside to tell her not to be concerned if people
were holding up their phones. "We didn't have cameras on our phones yet;
they did first," she marvels.
Lavigne loves to play for both the orderly Japanese fans and more
boisterous Chinese crowds but admits all the flying is grueling. "It's
way more difficult and a lot more stress on the body" than a trek by
bus, she says. But the audiences -- and the retail therapy -- make it
worthwhile. Says Lavigne, who has sold 35 million albums worldwide,
"I'll wake up to go shopping in Japan, because it's the best ever."
