We haven’t paid much attention to Avril Lavigne in a while. There was that period of time when she was regularly going to paparazzi-friendly clubs and spitting on anyone who tried to photograph her, but that was back in 2006. She’s since calmed down under douche Brody Jenner’s influence, whose stepmom taught him to kiss paparazzi ass for the sake of their family’s bank account. Avril has given a lot of obnoxious interviews, here’s a link to one that has a recap of several others, but the last glaringly bad interview that I can find from her is from 2008. I think she’s still a little tw*t, (you can substitute an a or an i there, your call) but she’s probably learned to keep her mouth shut.

Anyway, John Legend’s girlfriend, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Chrissy Teigen, is passing the time lately by talking smack on Twitter. She recently used a Seinfeld quote to say how insufferable Avril Lavigne is. It probably takes one to know one, but she strikes me as funny, unlike Avril:

John Legend’s super sexy (but totally brash), Sports Illustrated model girlfriend, Chrissy Teigen, has some fightin’ words for Avril Lavigne.

The bikini-clad Thai and Norwegian model must think she’s LeAnn Rimes or something ‘cause she’s very vocal on her Twitter account, and she recently took to it to express her disdain for the punk rock pop star…

“If u told me I could have 1 kid, but it would be exactly like avril, I would choose to have a barren, sterile existence that ends when I die,” Teigen tweeted Sunday afternoon.

We smell a catfight a brewin’! But what gave Teigen, whose Twitter bio reads “i like food a lot and i like modeling a little and i like my dog and boyfriend somewhere in between,” such a visceral reaction to Lavigne?

The model tweeted, “Watching an avril lavigne interview. The second most painful thing I have watched today after ‘the goods.’ ”

Looks like Teigen has a problem with both Avril and The Goods star Jeremy Piven!

The latter we understand. But listen up, those aren’t the only celebs Teigen is twicking (Twitter plus picking) on!

“Kind of feeling bad for gwyneth paltrow. Her fancy butt just can’t win. I do want her cookbook. For the recipes. No stories will be read.”

I doubt Avril will respond to her. She doesn’t seem to run her own Twitter account and lets her PR people take care of it. That’s a good strategy for someone like Avril. I could easily see her picking fights with people on Twitter.

Let’s consider this question, though. It’s the Mildred Pierce question – would you rather have a child that treated you with contempt or not have one at all? That’s assuming that Avril is a snot bag to everyone, though. She could be nice to people when they have something to offer her. Plus moms usually love their kids no matter what. That’s the Mildred Pierce curse. You realize your child has turned into an ungrateful person who takes your love and throws it back in your face, but you can’t stop offering it and getting your heart broken.

Avril is a singer too, just like the little wretch that Evan Rachel Wood played on Mildred Pierce. Did any of you watch that series on HBO? I felt like it had a non-ending, like there needed to be more of a conclusion to the relationship between Veda and Mildred. The part where we finally got to see Wood’s merkin was awesome though, and without revealing any spoilers that was just a riveting scene. (Here’s a link to a recap of parts 4 and 5 if you want to get a refresher.)

I’ve been dying to talk about that show, obviously, and it’s more interesting than this little twitter dramz between a model and a singer. From what little I know about Teigen, she may run the real risk of having a kid that’s a piece of work so it’s something she should consider. Like mother like daughter.
