Avril's Maxim cover: Does she pull it off?
Filed under: Celebrities with Style
Those of you into the pseudo-punk, kinda goth, grunge girl look are in for a treat next month. Avril Lavigne, the pop-rock icon, is adorning the March cover of Maxim magazine. It takes a lot to look decent on the cover a men's mag -- which is surprising, because most guys are only interested in seeing two things (or three, I guess, depending on how you're counting). You need just the right combination of sexy, trashy, and at least somewhat approachable to entice the average Joe to pick you up off the magazine rack.
So does Avril pull it off? She sticks with her traditional black eyeliner to help maintain her cred, and the frilly pink thing-a-ma-gigger she's using to cover up certainly works in her favor. All in all, I'd vote yes.
In fact, I'd go so far as to say she looks better than normal. The half grunge, half glamorous look she's been trying recently looks like a copy of a copy of a crappy version of Christina Aguilera -- only trashier. At least in the Maxim shoot she manages to look like a grown-up (and a pretty sexy one at that).
What do you think?
