Avril Lavigne Performs “Here’s To Never Growing Up” Live On ‘The Today Show’: Watch

Perpetual adolescent Avril Lavigne has finally begun to make some promotional rounds for her uncommonly good new single “Here’s To Never Growing Up,” and she stopped by The Today Show to chat with Matt Lauer about the song (not that his questions were particularly great) before delivering a live rendition. 

Lavigne certainly has the petulant teenager act down — she seems even less mature than I remembered her, somehow — and that likable brattiness came through in the performance, which was engagingly scratchy. At this point, I would have preferred a performance of her new song “17” — when is that debuting, anyway? — but this should (hopefully) help give “Growing” a little push on the charts. (Currently it’s at #30.)

Watch up top.
