Ten Things To Be Learned From Avril Lavigne’s New Music Video

The music video for Avril Lavigne’s new single “Hello Kitty” just premiered, and incidentally it seems to be stirring up quite the controversy. A lot of people are offended, and some people like it. I can’t say I’m here to read into any of that drivel. Perhaps you’ve seen something about this on the incessant news feeds posted across the internet like I did. Like a bad song that won’t get out of your head, I suppose I had to indulge for the sake of getting it out of my system. Thus, here is my input:
