The good hearted Lavigne must have really been feeling the love because she asked her fans to show their support by donating money to the Avril Lavigne Foundation, which was set up to help sick and disabled children.
The punk star showed off an elegant and sexy side in the artistic video which sees her enter a hotel room in the part black and white part colour video.
Avril Lavigne has officially said "Goodbye" to her Sk8r punk vibe and hello to a more adult, sexy look.
The mostly black-and-white video for her soulful ballad "Goodbye" is four minutes and 40 seconds of Lavigne, in a blond wig, stripping down into skimpy lingerie in a hotel room.
Lavigne, who usually can be seen in a T-shirt and jeans, can't hide, can't hide her curves in the video.
Woah - hello, new obsession with Avril Lavigne. The singer has just proved that she's one sexy little skater girl (or 'gurl' if you're cool like her) by stripping off for the first time in this new video.
The 27 year old landed herself firmly back on our radar by revealing an extremely tight little bod in a corset... before whipping off the corset and looking even better in a black underwear set.
In the video, Lavigne's usual straight, sandy locks are transformed into a mess of platinum blonde waves, while she looks like a naughty Taylor Swift as she strikes poses around a hotel room, mostly clad in lacy undergarments. The song's lyrics concern the bittersweet end of a relationship.
The glam, grown-up image seems in step with the maturing of the Los Angeles-based Ms. Lavigne, who is rumoured to be in talks to join the American version of TV singing contest X-Factor (after a stint guest-judging on American Idol).
The former tomboy transforms herself with a curly shaggy blonde wig and heavy make-up for the racy video, filmed at the luxury Chateau Marmont hotel in Hollywood.
The Canadian singer-songwriter, who split up with Kim Kardashian's stepbrother Brody Jenner at the start of the year, won't be single for long after this video airs.
Whether or not this is a good move for a singer who made her career on being a clench-fisted, rambunctious punk girl is yet to be seen. But from a purely visual perspective, Lavigne looks pretty sexy and even hints at edgier things by holding a riding crop in a brief shot—she's still a tough chick.
