就在今天,“好多人的青春”加拿大女歌手艾薇儿·拉维尼(Avril Lavigne)官宣了自己订婚的好消息!
现年38岁的她即将开始自己的第3段婚姻!
The Canadian singer announced Thursday that she's engaged to fellow musician Mod Sun, who proposed to Lavigne in Paris at the end of March.
这位加拿大歌手周四宣布她与同为音乐人的Mod Sun订婚,Sun于三月底在巴黎向艾薇儿求婚。
Lavigne, known for hits like "Sk8er Boi," gushed that the proposal was "perfect" in an exclusive interview with People: The two were on a boat in the Seine River with a clear view of the Eiffel Tower. Champagne flowed, a violinist played -- and yet Lavigne said the proposal was a "total surprise."
因“Sk8er Boi”等热门歌曲而大火的艾薇儿在接受《人物》杂志独家采访时表示,这个求婚“完美无缺”:两人在塞纳河的一艘船上,可以清楚地看到埃菲尔铁塔。香槟畅饮,小提琴手演奏——艾薇儿说这个求婚是一个“完全的惊喜”。
Sun (whose real name is Derek Smith) shared photos of the proposal on Instagram with a poetic caption: "The day we met I knew you were the one. Together forever til our days are done."
Sun(本名是德里克·史密斯)在Instagram上分享了求婚的照片,并配上了诗意的文字:“我们相遇的那一天,我就知道你是我的唯一。我们要永远在一起,直至生命的尽头。”
对于很多中国的歌迷来说,艾薇儿这个名字绝对不陌生。
出生于1984年的她,在18岁那年就发行了个人首张录音室专辑《Let Go》,并入围第45届格莱美奖最佳流行乐演唱专辑奖,专辑的全球累计销量超过了2000万张。
2007年,她推出的流行朋克风格单曲《Girlfriend》更是火遍全球,除英语版本外,她还推出了中文、日语等8种不同语言版本的《Girlfriend》。
而相比于事业,艾薇儿的情路可以说是相当坎坷,此前已经经历过两段婚姻,这也难怪,评论区里的画风是这样的:
The Canadian songstress’ first marriage was to Sum 41 lead singer, Deryck Whibley. The fellow Canadians tied the knot in a fairytale July 15, 2006, wedding in Montecito, California, after two years of dating.
这位加拿大女歌手的第一次婚姻是与Sum 41的主唱德里克·惠布利。这对加拿大恋人在相恋两年后,于2006年7月15日在加州蒙特斯托举行了童话般的婚礼。
Avril wore a stunning white Vera Wang gown and veil and carried a bouquet of white roses as she walked down the aisle to a dapper Deryck.
艾薇儿穿着漂亮的白色Vera Wang礼服,戴着面纱,手捧一束白玫瑰走向西装革履的德里克。
Sadly, their young love wasn’t built to last, as Avril and Deryck separated in September 2009, and she filed for divorce one month later.
可悲的是,他们年轻的爱情没有持续多久,艾薇儿和德里克于2009年9月分居,一个月后她提出离婚。
But their friendship and professional relationship continued. “Everyone’s always surprised that we’re still so close … Deryck is the most talented person I know. He produced, mixed, played guitar and bass [on my new album]” Avril revealed to Rolling Stone in April 2011.
但是他们的友谊和合作关系并没有收到影响。“每个人都很惊讶我们仍然如此亲密……德里克是我认识的最有才华的人。他[在我的新专辑中]帮我制作、混音、演奏吉他和贝斯,”艾薇儿在2011年4月向《滚石》透露。
“Getting divorced doesn’t mean drawing a line. No regrets are my mantra and I certainly don’t have any regrets about marrying when and who I did,” she added in the same interview.
“离婚并不意味着划清界限。“不后悔是我的口头禅,我当然不后悔在什么时候和什么人结婚,”她在同一次采访中补充道。
Avril went on to date The Hills star Brody Jenner for two years from 2010 to 2012.. She didn’t waste any time in getting back in the saddle after their split, announcing in August 2012 that she and Nickelback lead singer, Chad Kroeger, were engaged after less than six months of dating.
从2010年到2012年,艾薇儿继续和《山丘》的主演布洛迪·金纳约会了两年。分手后,她又重新开始恋情,在2012年8月宣布她和五分钱乐队主唱查德·克罗格在约会不到六个月后订婚。
“I actually said, before we started dating, ‘I wanna date someone 10 years older than me’ — and he’s exactly 10 years older than me. It’s nice, he’s got it together, he’s mature, he’s done his thing, he’s lived life, he’s been around the world on tour. He’s Canadian, and I’m Canadian, and we have a lot in common,” Avril gushed about Chad during a TV appearance on Chelsea Lately in 2013.
“实际上,在我们开始约会之前,我说过,‘我想和比我大10岁的人约会’——而他正好比我大10岁。这是一件很棒的事,因为他沉着冷静,非常成熟,他做了他该做的事,他享受生活,环游世界。他是加拿大人,我也是加拿大人,我们有很多共同点,”2013年,艾薇儿在切尔西的一次电视节目中滔滔不绝地谈论查德。
2012年,查德用14克拉的钻戒向艾薇儿正式求婚,2013年,二人在法国南部举行了婚礼,而这次的婚礼上,艾薇儿的婚纱变成了黑色。
The couple tied the knot in a gothic-themed wedding in Southern France that July, where Avril wore a custom black wedding gown designed by Monique Lhuillier. But just as their whirlwind romance turned into marriage, the pair’s union fell apart after two years and they divorced in 2015.
那年7月,这对恋人在法国南部举行了一场哥特式主题的婚礼,艾薇儿穿着莫尼克·鲁里耶定制的黑色婚纱。但是,就在他们闪婚两年后,两人关系破裂了,他们于2015年离婚。
Like Deryck, Avril remained close to Chad after they split, and he collaborated with his ex on her 2019 album, Head Above Water. “He’s just always been a cheerleader of mine and always been such a huge fan. He’s in my corner, he’s on my side, and he’s always been really great,” she told People magazine that year.
像德里克一样,艾薇儿在他们分手后仍然与查德保持密切联系,他的前任合作了她的2019年专辑《Head Above Water》。“他一直在支持鼓励我,一直是我的超级粉丝。他站在我这边,他一直都很棒,”那年她告诉《人物》杂志。
历史总是惊人的相似。目前这位未婚夫Mod Sun,也是一位音乐人。
Lavigne and Sun met while working on her latest album, "Love Sux," which maintains the punk-pop aesthetic of Lavigne's earlier work.
艾薇儿和Sun在制作她的最新专辑《Love Sux》时相遇,该专辑保持了艾薇儿早期作品的朋克流行风。
Word of a relationship between Mod Sun and Lavigne began when the rapper was spotted February 2021 with an “Avril” tattoo on the back his neck shorty after releasing their collaboration, “Flames.”
2021年2月,Mod Sun被发现在脖子后面有“艾薇儿”的名字文身,此时两人合作的专辑《Flames》刚刚发布,似乎昭示着这段恋爱关系的正式开始。
They "had a very strong unstoppable connection" within the first week of writing together, the "Girlfriend" singer said.
这位“Girlfriend”的原唱歌手表示,他们在一起创作的第一周就“感受到了一种非常强烈而不可阻挡的羁绊”。
"I look forward to having fun, creating, working together, touring together, growing together," Lavigne told People. (Lavigne begins touring at the end of April, with Mod Sun as one of her supporting acts.)
“我期待着我们共同享受人生,一起创作,一起工作,一起巡演,一起成长,”艾薇儿告诉《人物》。(艾薇儿将于4月底开始巡演,Mod Sun是她的暖场嘉宾之一。)
