2013 MuchMusic Video Awards: Our favourite Chavril moments of the past

Singer/songwriter Avril Lavigne is scheduled to perform at the 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards on Sunday, and we hope that she attends Toronto’s biggest block party with her Nickelback rocker fiancée Chad Kroeger.

“I’m going to do something different,” the 28-year-old musician said on the June 4 episode of “New.Music.Live.” “We’re going to go big on this one and we’re planning the performance right now. It’s going to be exciting. There might be some skateboards on stage.”

Both Canadian singers have a long history with the MMVAs. To get you ready for Sunday’s show, check out our 10 favourite Lavigne and Kroeger moments.

1. Avril Lavigne’s first awards show was the 2002 MMVAs
In this MuchMusic interview clip, the singer licks Ed the Sock and calls out Britney Spears. Remember what a bad girl she started out as?
