Why Avril Lavigne's First TikTok Has Fans Buzzing
Avril Lavinge has joined TikTok and made a big splash with her debut video. She threw it back all the way to 2002, dusting off the iconic red and blue tie from her "Sk8tr Boi" video, which she wore over a black tank top, baggy black shorts, and black sneakers. She lip-synced to her classic song in honor of National Skateboarding Day. In the TikTok video, she can be seen crouching at the top of a mini ramp with the ocean behind her.
The video zooms in on her red and white striped tie and then zooms out to reveal skateboarding legend Tony Hawk wearing the tie. He then gets on his skateboard and tears it up in true Hawk style. It was exactly the right way for Lavinge to make a mark with her first TikTok, from the day she chose, the song she chose, and Hawk's appearance. Fans are eating it up, too. Keep reading to find out what they have to say about Lavinge's first TikTok.
