Avril Lavigne makes bombshell revelation about Kelly Clarkson's hit song

Avril Lavigne and Kelly Clarkson may have never collaborated on a song before but as it turns out, they have shared their songwriting talents amongst each other.

According to Lavigne, she actually penned the lyrics to Clarkson’s breakout hit Breakaway nearly twenty years ago.

Appearing on The Kelly Clarkson Show recently, the Complicated singer shared, “Okay so I wrote this song, recorded it for my first album.”

She went on to explain, “I did not use it, it went to Kelly, and she slayed. She did an incredible job with it.”

Lavigne also revealed the inspiration behind the song which ended up being Clarkson’s chart-topper.

“I wrote this song at a very young age, I was leaving my small town, went to the city and took a chance, I took a leap of faith on my career – it was like, a very scary thing. Leaving my world behind and taking a chance, was what this song was written about,” she said.

Lavigne, who debuted with the album Unplugged in 2002, recently dropped her seventh studio album Love Sux on February 25.
