'{{Short description|Hoax claiming musician Avril Lavigne is dead}} {{Use Canadian English|date=December 2022}} {{Use mdy dates|date=December 2022}} The '''Avril Lavigne replacement conspiracy theory''' is a [[conspiracy theory]] stating that Canadian singer [[Avril Lavigne]] died in 2003, shortly after the release of her successful first [[album]], ''[[Let Go (Avril Lavigne album)|Let Go]]'', and was replaced by a [[body double]] named Melissa Vandella. Evidence used to support the theory include changes in Lavigne's appearance between 2003 and the present, supposed [[Subliminal stimuli|subliminal messaging]] in her follow-up effort, ''[[Under My Skin (Avril Lavigne album)|Under My Skin]]'', and a photoshoot in which Lavigne has the name "Melissa" written on her hand. The origins of the theory can be traced back to the 2011 Brazilian blog Avril Está Morta ("Avril Is Dead"), which led to conversations on [[Internet forums]] sharing supposed evidence of Lavigne's replacement. The theory gained more traction in May 2017, when a [[Twitter]] user posted a thread recounting the theory. Lavigne herself has denied the theory on multiple occasions. == Origins == {{multiple image | total_width = 320 | image1 = AvrilShow cropped.jpg | alt1 = Avril Lavigne performing in 2002 | image2 = Avril Lavigne playing guitar, St. Petersburg (crop).jpg | alt2 = Avril Lavigne performing in 2011 | footer = Lavigne performing in 2002 (left) and in 2011 (right), the year that the Avril Está Morta blog formed }} The origins of the replacement theory can be dated back to 2011, with a Brazilian blog named Avril Está Morta, or Avril Is Dead, although some sources say that the rumour dates back as far as 2005.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Rohwedder |first1=Kristie |title=Avril Lavigne Can't Believe *That* Death Hoax Is Still A Thing Either |url=https://www.bustle.com/p/avril-lavigne-addressed-that-doppelganger-conspiracy-theory-she-thinks-its-weird-because-duh-15944500 |access-date=March 9, 2021 |work=[[Bustle (magazine)|Bustle]] |date=February 11, 2019 |archive-date=March 29, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190329105348/https://www.bustle.com/p/avril-lavigne-addressed-that-doppelganger-conspiracy-theory-she-thinks-its-weird-because-duh-15944500 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Cresci |first1=Elena |title=Why fans think Avril Lavigne died and was replaced by a clone named Melissa |url=https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/shortcuts/2017/may/15/avril-lavigne-melissa-cloning-conspiracy-theories |access-date=March 9, 2021 |work=[[The Guardian]] |date=May 16, 2017 |archive-date=July 15, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220715020329/https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/shortcuts/2017/may/15/avril-lavigne-melissa-cloning-conspiracy-theories |url-status=live }}</ref> The theory alleges that the pressures of fame, combined with the death of Lavigne's grandfather, sent her into a deep [[major depressive disorder|depression]] after the release of her 2002 debut album, ''[[Let Go (Avril Lavigne album)|Let Go]]'', and that the singer died by suicide shortly after.<ref name="song">{{cite news |last1=Song |first1=Sandra |title=A Conspiracy Theory Says Avril Lavigne Is Dead And Has Been Replaced By A Doppelganger |url=https://www.papermag.com/a-conspiracy-theory-says-avril-lavigne-is-dead-and-has-been-replaced-b-1427652800.html |access-date=March 9, 2021 |work=[[Paper (magazine)|Paper]] |date=October 1, 2015 |archive-date=October 28, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201028232946/https://www.papermag.com/a-conspiracy-theory-says-avril-lavigne-is-dead-and-has-been-replaced-b-1427652800.html |url-status=live }}</ref> According to the conspiracy theory, a look-alike named "Melissa" was originally hired to distract paparazzi, protecting a reclusive Lavigne.

Lavigne was asked if she had heard about online rumours claiming she "had died and was replaced by a clone", to which she replied by saying that the first time she was hearing about it was in this interview, and later added, "Well, I'm here, and I'm here in Brazil". In a video of the interview uploaded to the official YouTube channel of the TV show, it's possible to see images of the blog page <i>Avril Está Morta</i> responsible for starting the rumours.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15">&#91;15&#93;</a></sup> After the theory resurfaced globally in 2017, Lavigne addressed the rumours in a November 2017 Facebook live stream Q&amp;A, when a fan asked whether she was dead, to which Lavigne responded, "No, I'm not dead. I'm here."<sup id="cite_ref-michallon_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-michallon-16">&#91;16&#93;</a></sup> She went on to say that the theory was spawned because "people are just bored and need something to talk about".<sup id="cite_ref-michallon_16-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-michallon-16">&#91;16&#93;</a></sup> The question was broached again in a November 2018 interview with Australia's <a href="/enwiki/wiki/KIIS_106.5" title="KIIS 106.5">KIIS 106.5</a>.
