2009–2011: Goodbye Lullaby

In January 2010, Lavigne worked with Disney clothing designs inspired by Tim Burton's feature film Alice in Wonderland. She recorded a song for its soundtrack, "Alice", which was played over the end credits and included on the soundtrack album Almost Alice.[74][75][76] In February, Lavigne performed at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremony.[77] Lavigne's song "I'm with You" was sampled by Rihanna on the track "Cheers (Drink to That)", which is featured on Rihanna's fifth studio album, Loud (2010).[78][79] "Cheers (Drink to That)" was released as a single the following year, and Lavigne appeared in its music video.[80] In December 2010, American singer Miranda Cosgrove released "Dancing Crazy", a song written by Lavigne, Max Martin and Shellback. It was also produced by Martin.[81]

Lavigne began recording for her fourth studio album, Goodbye Lullaby, in her home studio in November 2008, its opening track, "Black Star", was written to help promote her first fragrance of the same name.[82][83] Lavigne described the album as being about her life experiences rather than focusing on relationships, and its style as less pop rock than her previous material, reflecting her age.[83][84] The release date for Goodbye Lullaby was delayed several times, which Lavigne said was because of her label.[85][86] Goodbye Lullaby was released in March 2011,[87][84] and its lead single, "What the Hell", premiered in December 2010.[87] Goodbye Lullaby sold 368,000 copies in the US[40] and received Juno Award nominations for Album of the Year and Pop Album of the Year.[56]

2012–2015: Avril Lavigne

Three months after the release of Goodbye Lullaby, Lavigne announced that work on her fifth studio album had already begun, describing it as the musical opposite of Goodbye Lullaby[88] and "pop and more fun again".[89][90][91] In late 2011, she confirmed that she had moved to Epic Records, headed by L. A. Reid.[92][93] Lavigne contributed two cover songs to the 2012 Japanese animated film One Piece Film: Z: "How You Remind Me" (originally by Nickelback) and "Bad Reputation" (originally by Joan Jett).[94]

The second single, "Rock n Roll", was released in August 2013[96] and the third, "Let Me Go" (featuring Lavigne's then-husband Chad Kroeger of Nickelback), was released in October 2013.[97] The album, eponymously titled Avril Lavigne, was released in November 2013 and sold 125,000 copies in the US; in Canada, it was certified gold and received a Juno Award nomination for Pop Album of the Year.[98][99] During mid 2014, Lavigne opened for boy band the Backstreet Boys' In a World Like This Tour and played at the music festival Summer Sonic in Tokyo, Japan.[99][100]
