The Girlfriend singer, who has already released three albums, is “really excited” about the upcoming shows because singing live is what she loves.

Avril said: “I’m really excited for The Best Damn Tour. I have more singles to play, which can be the most exciting part of the show.

“I can’t wait to get back out on the road! I have the most fun when I am performing for the fans. I think that energy comes through in my live show.”

The 23-year-old singer – who married Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley last year – is famous for touring with an all-male crew, but plans to leave behind her tomboy image on this tour.

Avril added: “I’m going to have my own specially designed bus that’s going to be just for me, and it’s going to be a lot more girly!”

Tickets for the tour go on sale on 17 November on LiveNation.com.
