From idol to friend.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Avril Lavigne<\/a><\/strong> caught up with E! News<\/em> co-host Scott Tweedie<\/a><\/strong> for the latter’s Instagram series, HappE! Hour. During this chat, the “Head Above Water<\/a>” artist opened up about her friendship with 18-year-old chart topper<\/a> Billie Eilish<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As E! readers surely know, back in July 2019, the edgy pop veteran<\/a> attended the “Bad Guy” artist<\/a>‘s concert at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, Calif. It was during this concert that the two artists had a chance to meet and talk. This meeting clearly meant the world to Billie, who later shared a snap from the encounter and wrote, “Thank you for making me what I am.”<\/p>\n

However, from what the “Sk8er Boi” rocker exclusively dished to Scott, it’s clear that Avril is equally a fan of Billie’s.<\/p>\n

“Her performance was amazing, she was super sweet and she said a lot of kind things about me in her interviews, that she listened to my music and stuff growing up, so it was really cool meeting her,” the 35-year-old singer-songwriter relayed. “She’s awesome, she’s super talented, she’s a sweetheart. Love her!”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

And the night was certainly a memorable one for Avril. Not only did Billie’s brother and music producer Finneas<\/strong> reveal that he too was an Avril fan, but she was also invited to the “Bury a Friend” singer’s 18th birthday party.<\/p>\n

“She invited me to her 18th birthday and it was fun! Her mom made a cake and it was sweet\u2014no pun intended,” Avril shared. “There was just like a pi\u00f1ata and games, just like a small group of her friends and family. Just like a bunch of fun arcade games and stuff.”<\/p>\n

According to Avril, her own 18th birthday was equally chill as she simply played hockey while in New York City.<\/p>\n

Following all of this, Avril said she’s still happily rocking “dope girl” Billie’s merchandise.<\/p>\n

“That’s the love for each other,” she added.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Billie wasn’t the only person Avril gushed about during her HappE! Hour visit. In fact, the Candian-born performer made sure to give a shout out to the COVID-19 frontline workers.<\/p>\n

Recently, Avril released a charity single, “We Are Warriors,” which is a reworked version of her 2019 hit, “Warriors.” Per Avril, she chose to re-record the track as a way to “show my appreciation and gratitude” to those risking their lives amid this pandemic.<\/p>\n

“The song is out now and the proceeds are going to Project Hope and the Avril Lavigne Foundation to supply PPE around the world,” she detailed.<\/p>\n

Be sure to listen to “We Are Warriors” (out now).<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
