Lavigne's second album, ''Under My Skin'', was her first to top the ''Billboard'' 200 chart; her third album, ''The Best Damn Thing'', produced her first ''Billboard'' Hot 100 #1 hit with the single "Girlfriend". Her next albums [[NewSoundAlbum ventured into considerably different genres than her mainstay of pop punk]] -- ''Goodbye Lullaby'' pursued a subdued and stripped-back pop rock sound, her SelfTitledAlbum featured more uptempo pop, and ''Head Above Water'' leaned into adult contemporary styles. The albums' new directions did not go without divisive reception, as well as diminishing sales. However, her 2022 album ''Love Sux'' saw a return to her pop punk sound, with greatly increased critical and commercial success in tow.

Lavigne was in a relationship with Deryck Whibley from Music/Sum41 from 2004 to 2010 (marrying in 2006), and with Chad Kroeger from Music/{{Nickelback}} from 2012 to 2015 (marrying in 2013), and from 2021 to 2023 with Music/ModSun, with the couple getting engaged in 2022 before breaking things off a year later.
