Avril Lavigne's pizza honour

Avril Lavigne's hometown of Napanee, Canada is so proud of her that one of the pizza restaurants there has named a pie after her.

Speaking to Live! magazine, the 'What The Hell' singer explained it's particularly exciting because it features her favourite toppings:

"There's a pizza restaurant in the centre that I used to go to when I was at high school, and they've turned it into kind of an Avril-themed place. There's even a pizza named after me made from my favourite toppings: pepperoni, olives and mushrooms."

Food is important to the young singer as she admits it helps her to relax and wind down, and she added:

"I love making little Yorkshires and getting them to rise perfectly. I like being domesticated. It's my way of unwinding. After months of touring and promotion I just want to stay in and be normal. Going out shopping for groceries and cooking food is my way of chilling out."
