s Avril Lavigne Pregnant?

There is nothing we love more than a baby bump rumour and seeing the latest photos of Avril Lavigne has got us speculating that she might be preggers. She’s been dating Kim Kardashian’s step brother Brody Jenner for almost two years now and it’s been over year since they sealed their love with couple tattoos.

Avril is of course insulted by the ‘bump’ rumours telling Access Hollywood, "Oh my god, that was yesterday! I was out getting my nails done with my girlfriend and I had a poncho on . . . [Then] there was a whole thing online that I was pregnant. I'm like, ' How insulting!' So no, I'm not [pregnant]. Obviously!"

Is Avril just in denial? Do you think she really could be pregnant?

Avril Lavigne 'Cried for Real' in Raw

Avril Lavigne is known around the globe for her musical chops and unapologetic bravado. But the Canadian songstress in recent years has expanded her resume by tapping into fashion with her own clothing lifestyle brand, a fragrance line (Wild Rose) and a foundation to help youth with disabilities and illnesses.

In an interview with Billboard.com, the multifaceted entertainer dished about her career, touring and how music has inspired her to branch out beyond the recording studio.The superstar's fourth studio album, "Goodbye Lullaby," was released in March and continues to resonate with fans with songs such as "What The Hell" and "Smile." The most current single, "Wish You Were Here," showcases Lavigne's more vulnerable side.

"It's a song written about missing someone and looking back and remembering all the good times and all those awesome moments," Lavigne says. The song is "stripped down. It's kind of raw, but also emotional. I cry in the video and that was something that I did on purpose, but it was something that was real."

Lavigne, who made a cameo on Rihanna's music video "Cheers" earlier this year, next takes her Black Star Tour to her native country for 16 dates throughout October.

"I'm having the most fun I've ever had," says Lavigne about the upcoming leg of her tour. "Every night you have a different crowd. Some are more rowdy than others and you want to get their energy up and get them to have a good time."

When she isn't touring she spends her time supporting The Avril Lavigne Foundation through a partnership with Easter Seals to fund programs for children with disabilities. Her time is also spent creating everything from T-shirts to accessories for her clothing line Abbey Dawn which, she says, is always tied to the music she writes about.

"As I got older I really started appreciating fashion more because it's really a big part of what I do with my music career," Lavigne says. "I'm pretty much designing for myself and it's a rock 'n roll brand. It's another way for me to create."

Avril Lavigne Security Scare, Loses Voice at London Concert

Avril Lavigne, currently on the European leg of her Black Star tour, was late tonight to a London concert due to a security incident that she later wrote made her “scared for (her) life”.In addition to hitting the stage more than a half hour late, the singer eventually lost her voice with a few songs still remaining in her set list. Concert goers posted that her voice continued to crack during her hit song “Complicated”, which eventually led Lavigne to give up entirely – holding the microphone towards the crowd, who enthusiastically picked up where she left off and completed the song.

Although some reports indicated the songstress became emotional as the concert wound down, others – including fans in the front row – wrote that she seemed in good spirits and appeared bemused, though frustrated, with her fading voice.

UPDATE: Avril Bandaids, the top Avril Lavigne fan site, has posted amateur videos from tonight’s concert, including this video by Youtube user “Popgoer” showing Avril Lavigne good-naturedly struggle through her final song, “Complicated”, with help from the audience.

Lavigne finally admitted to fans who packed the HMV Hammersmith Apollo that she had had a bad day and couldn’t sing any longer before leaving the stage.

The singer’s Twitter posts before and after the show revealed an unspecified security incident had delayed her arrival, and she most recently posted to Facebook that “Shortly before my show tonight, there was a breach in security and now the police are handling (it)”.

Fans were united in expressing condolences and well wishes to the star online, and “Feel better Avril” became a worldwide trending term on Twitter – which the singer acknowledged and thanked fans for on her own Twitter account.

Avril Lavigne and Brody Jenner, what the future holds

Rock chick Avril Lavigne and her boyfriend Brody Jenner have been dating each other for quite some time now and the couple always seem extremely happy together. Avril has even become close to Brody’s family and is especially close to his sister Kim Kardashian. But what does the future hold for these young lovers?

Well one thing is for certain, they will not be having children anytime soon. Despite rumours that Avril Lavigne is pregnant, which she denied saying, “Oh my God, I was out getting my nails done with my girlfriend and I had a poncho on. There was a whole thing online that I was pregnant. I’m like, ‘How insulting!’ So no, I’m not. Obviously!”Avril Lavigne has also made it quite clear that she does not want to have children anytime soon, as she is fully focussed on her music career. Meanwhile, Brody Jenner is happy to stand by his lady in all her decisions.

Marriage is the most likely next step but that is unlikely to be anytime soon either. For now it seems that they are just happy being lovers. Good for them.

I'm always a big fan of the collections from Emilio Pucci, but this time I wasn't that excited. This time Dundas chose a rich gypsy themed collection:  big ruffles, waist-tied sashes and mid-drift baring tops. Skirts were done in lace, organza, silks, and encrusted with crystals. Also the accessories matched the Spanish Flamenco theme : crucifix necklaces, big earrings and the hair in a ponytail tied with a scarf.
But I missed the overdose of multicolored, psychedelic prints from previous seasons. 
However, some of the pieces are still amazing and the workmanship is couture-grade.
My main concern with this collection is: are there really women out there who find this pieces wearable on a day to day basis? Although I am loving the lingerie crop tops, the web looking knits and the amazing jewelry.
