MELISSA & THE BLACKSTARS- Northhalsted market days festival
PUBLIC EVENT
AVRIL LAVIGNE TRIBUTE BAND: MELISSA & THE BLACKSTARS - NORTHHALSTED MARKET DAYS FESTIVAL
In 2003, the world met a tie-wearing, middle-finger-throwing teenager named Avril Lavigne, and nothing was the same.
Let Go was released.
Avril ascended to pop punk royalty.
And then… the internet did what the internet does best.
According to one of the most brain-bending conspiracy theories of the 2000s, Avril died at the peak of her fame and the label swapped her out with a body double lookalike named Melissa Vandella.
They say she was trained. Conditioned. Rebranded. Re-released. Handwriting changed. Moles disappeared. Facial structure shifted. Even the voice sounded different.
Google it. We did.
Coincidence? Or the greatest pop-punk twist of all time?
After hours of highly unqualified research, we reached a shocking, absolutely anticlimactic conclusion:
Avril is very obviously Avril.
But in trying to "find" her, we actually found Melissa!
"Wanna start a band?" we asked.
She said yes.
Melissa & the Black Stars
A conspiracy core tribute to the reigning Punk Rock Princess herself.
