Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger are engaged!! WHAT!?
 |
Okay – WHAT!? Can you imagine being married to the lead singer of ‘Nickleback’?! I mean, is there ANYTHING worse than a ‘Nickleback’ song! How about having to hear Nickleback songs the rest of your life! Singing in the shower? No thanks! Who even knew these two were dating!? I must calm down.
Avril Lavigne and Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger’s relationship has been so quiet that few even knew they were dating. Now, after a six-month courtship, the Canadian rockers are engaged to be married, Lavigne’s rep tells PEOPLE exclusively.
Lavigne, 27, and Kroeger, 37, first got together in February to co-write a song for Lavigne’s upcoming fifth studio album.
“A romantic relationship blossomed as they spent time writing together,” a Lavigne pal tells PEOPLE.
On Aug. 8, Kroeger popped the question, presenting Lavigne with a 14-carat diamond sparkler.
“He makes her so happy,” a family source tells PEOPLE. “Both of their families could not be more excited.”
It will be Kroeger’s first trip down the aisle, and the second marriage for Lavigne, who split from Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley in 2009. She had also dated Brody Jenner.
14 CARATS!? I’m sorry – this one just shocks me. Talk about random.
I can’t tell you how much I hate Nickleback. It actually pains me to make it through an entire song.

I really enjoy Nickelback songs. I don’t own an album but I enjoy the ones on the radio. I don’t understand why everyone always talks about how much they hate Nickleback..like they are the most hated rock band ever. For so much hate they sure do sell TONS of records and make TONS of money off their concerts. Seems strange to me.
Either way, this is a really strange couple. I am surprised that Avril would want to get remarried so soon and that Chad would take the risk the first time after such a short courtship. I guess if you know, you know!
The 14 carat ring seem excessive to me. Avril is a total tomboy, I don’t ever see her wearing a ring that size.
Oh well, good luck to them!

They do make a ton of money – and do sell a ton of records, so you’re obviously not alone! But man, oh man, I have serious hate for their music. I for one, just don’t get it!

Eeeeewwwwwwkay…
Ha! I (reluctantly)like a few of their songs, but hate them at the same time! Hee!
I have always hated her, she seems like a witch.
Two big skanks that skank well together…

Weirdest couple ever. And random (I think).
I don’t hate their music, I used to like them more. But, I realize that their music all sounds the same, and that makes it difficult to tolerate, methinks.

I don’t know what’s weirder – the relationship or what he did to his face.
