Lavigne 'wants Madonna-style career'
Avril Lavigne has revealed that she hopes to emulate Madonna's music career.
The singer, who is gearing up for the release of her fourth studio album Goodbye Lullaby, said that she wants to follow a similar path to Madonna, who has released 11 albums in her 27-year career.
"I definitely can see myself still being out there in 20 years' time," she told the Daily Record.
"I want to be around the way Madonna has done it. She's had her life but still maintained her career throughout."
On the secret to career longevity, she explained: "Well, it's like you go away and you come back. I put out a record, I'm around doing a million things and then I shut up and go away."
"I think it's good to change but it's better if it's a natural progression rather than being forced."
Lavigne's new single 'What The Hell' is released January 17.

Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" to feature on Glee
Lady Gaga just this week gave the Glee producers clearance for tackling her highly anticipated new single, “Born This Way,” which hasn’t even dropped yet! Murphy reveals that the song will be used in a March or April episode and will be centered around closeted gay bully Karofsky (Max Adler). “I love that that song is anthem,” says Murphy. “This show is by nature optimistic and I think a character like Karofsky could turn to booze or pills or alcohol and kill themselves or do something dark. But I also love Max and I love that character and I sorta want that character to have a happy ending. So I don’t really know what that’s going to be, but I do know we’re going to do a whole episode that’s about that song.”

"Glee" to do Justin Bieber
Heads up, Twitter: You’re seconds away from exploding. Sources confirm to me exclusively that Glee is doing a February sweeps episode that’s Justin Biebercentric.
Details are still sketchy, but I’m told the episode — tentatively scheduled to air on Feb. 15 — will feature the cast covering several of the teen phenom’s songs. Bieber himself will also figure into the episode’s plot, although there are no plans for him to appear in the flesh. At least not as of this writing.
This is shaping up to be a big February for Fox’s musicomedy smash, beginning with its post-Super Bowl entry on February 6, continuing two days later with the big Valentine’s episode and now, of course, The Biebs.
