Introducing: Who Replaced Avril Lavigne? Joanne McNally Investigates

There’s a story going around, that punk-pop sensation Avril Lavigne ISN’T who you think she is. That she was replaced at the start of her career by a look-a-like. It’s an internet conspiracy theory which has been eating comedian Joanne McNally ALIVE, and she’s going to do something about it.
In this 6-part series, Joanne immerses herself in a mind-bending world of fake celebrity deaths, doppelgangers, conspiracies in an effort to understand how this rumour started, and if there’s any truth to it. Who Replaced Avril Lavigne? Joanne McNally Investigates is produced by What’s The Story Sounds - for BBC Sounds and CBC Podcasts.
6 episodes. Coming March 6, 2024.
About Who Replaced Avril Lavigne?: Avril Lavigne was a punk pop sensation who topped the charts in the early noughties, and she still performs to sold-out crowds today. But what if the Avril we’ve been following all these years is not the same Avril we fell in love with? What if - as a curious theory claims - Avril was replaced by a look-alike at the height of her fame?
