Avril Lavigne Curses Out Topless Protester At The Juno Awards
Things got crazy during Canada’s Juno Awards Monday night (March 13) while Avril Lavigne was on stage introducing a musical guest. As the “Complicated” singer walked on stage to introduce AP Dhillon, a topless woman appeared right behind her.
The woman, who was only wearing pink pants and silver pasties covering her nipples, was posing behind Lavigne. Speaking about Dhillon selling out shows in Canada and the US, Lavigne says, “Get the f— off,” when she notices her. “Get the f— off, bitch!” The singer-songwriter laughs as she gives her a little shove and security appears to help escort the protester off the stage so Lavigne can get back to introducing the artist.

Making it clear that it was AP’s moment, the 38-year-old did her best to continue her speech about her fellow Canadian, who is the “first ever Punjabi act to perform at the Junos.” Dhillon, who performed “Summer High,” posted the crazy moment on his Instagram Stories today, adding laughing emojis to praise how Avril handled the situation. Seemingly after the awards show, the two posed together to say, “Get the f— off, bitch!”
The protestor’s body appeared to be covered in messages including “Save the Green Belt.” According to CTV News, the protestor’s messages seemed to reference a housing development plan recently rolled out by the government in Ontario.
