Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger create worst music ever

[Welfare Willis]

...according to the internet (or at least one music critic).

If you wanna see the ridiculous video for the ridiculous Avril Lavigne song “Hello Kitty,” which was co-written by her ridiculous shithead husband, Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger, you’d better do it fast: according to multiple media outlets (including Billboard, Buzzfeed, and WWTDD), the clip is has been met with so much derision that it’s disappearing from the internet fast. Indeed, the original link sent to us by a reader named Brian was no longer available by the time we got to it; the clip below is a bootleg version which may very well have been yanked down by the time this is published. But I do sincerely hope you all get to experience it at least once, because it gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “hilariously awful.”

It’s not just that the track is blatant attempt to be the next “Hollaback Girl” (just what the world needs!), and it’s not just that it has the stupidest lyrics to a pop song since “My Humps” (sample which must make Gloria Steinem want to go on a murderous rampage: “Let’s play truth or dare/ We can roll around in our underwear/ How every silly kitty should play”), it’s that the whole thing is casually racist to boot. This is one of those things where you have to wonder how it ever even got out into the world when literally hundreds, if not thousands, of people had to work on and approve it. Seriously — NOBODY stopped and said “Uh, Avril? Chad? This is a HORRIBLE idea.”

It's great to imagine Chad Kroeger singing the chorus on this. The melody sounds exactly like something he would write.

If the poor reception gets it pulled from circulation, it would be shocking, but not entirely without precedent. There was a song by The Roots called "Birthday Party" in 2007 or 2008 that was met with such universal distain that, despite being the lead single, was erased from memory and quietly deleted from their album's tracklist.

Sweet merciful crap..... that is terrible.

Also, can someone explain to Avril that she isnt 17 anymore?

You watched it! You can't unwatch it!

[hunterbusax]

Can you Explain to any woman there not 17 anymore ?

[Dave the Dave]

Should have stayed married to the dude from Sum 41. They're only slightly hated.

[StuntGranny®]

I honestly would be more shocked if she made something good. All of her music sucks and I'll never forgive her for her f***ing terrible cover of Metallica's 'Fuel'.

[The Ichi]

Watch it become mega popular because this is how you become mega popular these days.

Sum 41 is Mozart compared to this garbage.

Her early stuff was....ok because at that time, she actually was 17. Her stuff was kinda fun. Then she kept trying really hard to be "punk". Then album after album of the same nonsense kept coming out. She didn't even try to do anything different

Meh

still better than Sk8er Boi

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

The screen grab of the unplayed YouTube video is showing me four of the most depressed looking Japanese backup dancers you ever will see. Poor girls.

[Perd]

Eh, it's no worse than most other dubstep tinged dance pop.

I always thought Avril Lavigne looks like the pornstar Mary Anne:

That's like saying having mild diarrhea is better than having severe diarrhea.

I'll take that over Girlfriend. That song makes me want to burn things

Say what you will about Taylor Swift's songs, but that is the ultimate "I think your girlfriend's a bitch, so that's reason enough for me to be with you" song

[Mister Pigwell]

Was this supposed to be a spoof gone terribly awry? Parody? The machine that runs her career certainly cannot be THIS oblivious.

Oh bring on the blowback, I'm excited for the mess this will become.
